I didn't erase anything though - I just downloaded it from CA and ran it once i'd finished the config and the "XMLTVSchedulesDirect" docker was running nifty (and his few brothers) dissappeared.....

Thanks for the info. Actually the command runs on the Unraid prompt. The docker container can not start without the config and it is not possible (easy) to offer interactive configuration at this time. Just launch the Unraid terminal from within the UI (top right looks like >_ ) and then run the docker command above. It assumes that your data path is "/mnt/cache/appdata/XMLTVSchedulesDirect" which is the default unless you changed it.

January 18, 20206 yr I could be wrong on this. This is in my guide which appears to show as new, and appears to have the "new" tag. But in Plex it does not appear as new. As stated before, I know Plex can see the new tag because a guide I had imported using epg123 shows the "new" tag. <programme start="20200122010000 +0000" stop="20200122020000 +0000" channel="I31225.json.schedulesdirect.org"> <title>Dr. Phil</title> <sub-title>My Ex Put Cameras at My House to Prove I'm a Horrible Mom</sub-title> <desc>Jason says his ex-wife, Tina, refuses to be a parent, while their 16-year-old daughter refuses to talk to him, because he is a disciplinarian; Tina says Jason has put up cameras to watch her and her daughter and listen to their conversations.</desc> <credits> <presenter>Phil McGraw</presenter> </credits> <category>Talk</category> <category>Series</category> <category>series</category> <episode-num system="xmltv_ns">17.84.</episode-num> <episode-num system="dd_progid">EP005178513153</episode-num> <video> <quality>HDTV</quality> </video> <audio> <stereo>stereo</stereo> </audio> <previously-shown start="20200121" /> <new /> <subtitles type="teletext" /> <rating system="Régie du cinéma"> <value>13+</value> </rating> <rating system="Canadian Parental Rating"> <value>14+</value> </rating> <rating system="Film & Publication Board"> <value>13</value> </rating> <rating system="USA Parental Rating"> <value>TVPG</value> </rating> </programme> In this guide listing the "new" tag appears to be missing an end bracket and does not appear to look like the one @alturismo has. Does it look problematic to anyone?
January 20, 20206 yr Author <previously-shown start="20200121" /> The listing you provided above is a repeated show. You can see the previously-shown tag is present and is the day before this episode is being aired. I would not expect it to be flagged as new.

You can see the previously-shown tag is present and is the day before this episode is being aired. I would not expect it to be flagged as new. Then something is wrong with the listing because it is a new show and there is what appears to be an open ended new tag directly below it. Also, quite by accident, I found at least one show in the guide had a correctly assigned new tag. So I think there is an issue with the guide. So I deleted the guide and deleted the dvr from plex and decides to rerun the docker, install and import a new guide. Fingers crossed it works.
January 21, 20206 yr Doing a re install of Plex and re importing a new guide did not solve the problem. But a number of things became clear. The issue is not the guide, it's Plex. Using the same guide in Jellyfin and I see repeat and new tags, no problem. Some episodes show as new in Plex, but they are few and far between. Plex and Jellyfin must treat the 'previously show' tag differently, because it's the source of my problem. From what I see if 'previously show' is with or without the 'new' tag, the episode is considered a repeat by Plex. If the 'new' tag is on its own, Plex sees it as new.
January 24, 20206 yr Not to beat a dead horse, but to clear the record, there is something up with the xml's this app downloads (with respect to previously aired and new tag). Using EPG123, which uses schedules direct as a source, the previously aired tag (called previously shown in epg123) is not littered throughout the guide. It accurately displays the <new /> tag on its own and <previously-show> on its own. For Plex this means episodes that are set to record new only are accurately recorded and repeats are ignored. So there is something wrong with the guide data with respect to those two issues. Not sure how well the xmltv schedules direct app is being maintained , but hopefully they will correct this issue. All else seems to be fine!

January 24, 20206 yr Author 1 hour ago, alturismo said: as this is not a SD exclusive app ... there are others out there u can try, like i said i use another one meanwhile, guide2go as sample For clarification, the docker image installs the scraper and it's possible XML format has changed or the SD grabber needs updating. If I remember correctly the SD grabber was actually integrated in to the XMLTV project and the GitHub repo may not be required. I don't have an active SD subscription at the moment, so guide2go at this point is sound advice. That said if I get the chance I'll have a look and see if I can troubleshoot issue. I also have a young family and a full-time job so I can't guarantee this will be the highest of priorities. Edited January 24, 20206 yr by Huxy
