[tunefix-update] Automated Freeview channel updates

[Luke]

there were also changes on PSB1, PSB2 and PSB3 at Rosneath

Thanks. I've been puzzling over post #199 not mentioning the PSBs for Rosneath.

 

[Black Hole]

Me too... (not)

 

[MikeSh]

I went into Google maps to find out where Rosneath is.


Turns out it's in a different country ...

I still can't make my mind up whether you're being serious or extracting the P.
That's the trouble with the written word some times...

Eh? What? Do you mean they couldn't be segregated?

Do you mean they couldn't be segregated?

Yes. Frequencies are considerably reused in both Wales and Scotland on the same service numbers. There is only one service ID for the whole of Wales and Scotland is not much better.

1.0.57:

Add Yesterday+1 on LCN 99 (COM7)​

Rename NOW 80s to NOW XMAS​

(30 minutes of NOW XMAS on the telly and I've had enough. Ready for January now. Bring it on.)

 

[Owen Smith]

I never retune between the christmas named channels starting to appear and January when they disappear. Dreadful things.

Remove Rocks & Co 1​

Rename CBS Action to CBS Justice​

I've had a few of crashes over the last year that seem to co-inside with a tunefix update. Latest was last night. It's likely to be a coincidence but thought I'd ask if others have experienced this. Image there would be many posts if anything other than a local box issue.

Did you actually experience a crash, I`ve had the odd crash report but never noticed the reported crash, in the same regard when the machine has crashed on me there has been no crash report generated!!

Since I installed dlna-filter I have had no crashes that I can recall!

There's no timestamp on the crash message, so you don't really know when it happened.
And it's a tunefix-update update. And coincide.

 

[MikeSh]

I happened to check our two boxes earlier today and both had a tunefix-update and only one had a crash report.
The one that had the crash does seem a bit more prone to it, but both crash occasionally regardless of tf-uds.

Re: Mendip changes next year...

I counted three separate dates on which frequencies change - that seems a lot to me! tunefix-update won't handle them all (not for me anyway).

Why do you think not? That almost sounds like a challenge.

 

[Black Hole]

Well, I assume the tuning revision will bring me back services that I've lost. tunefix-update doesn't automatically reinstate anything, does it?!

Might it be possible to document these now that this package is mature? Obvs no guarantee of stability is expected.

No doubt there is an update on the way for this week's updates.
