Thanks for the great work Jaidev! It's all been working very smoothly of late - the reason for the lack of activity on the forum I'm sure ;-)
New Guide Slices will be auto uploaded to the FTP every Mon, Wed, Fri approx 12pm
I don't see a need for more days since the tivo takes approx ~12hrs to index..
I'm not sure when the emulator obtains updated slices.. Ed can answer that..

It was set to run daily at 1:21pm PDT (8:21am NZT), but knowing they go up at noon I've changed it to 5:37PDT (12:37NZT).Originally Posted by jaidev
Is this still the case?Originally Posted by ehintz
My Tivo is set to do a daily call at 2:20pm each day - I've noticed lately that the guide data doesn't seem to be there at that time (my Tivo is currently downloading Fridays data - it's now Saturday).
Has the time changed ?

Times for the emulator to attempt getting new data are currently 03:37 and 16:37 Pacific, which would correspond to 22:37 and 11:37 NZ time at the moment.
I wouldn't worry about it too much myself. I've not noticed any detrimental effect to waiting until Sat AM, even if the slice did go up at 10:37 the previous evening. In theory the data should be more than a few days in advance anyway. I only worry about it when large empty spots appear in on screen guide data.

I run a cron job to force a daily call - the idea being that if the guide data came in around lunch, I would have it downloaded and indexed that night...Originally Posted by zollymonsta
Theres an article on the Twiki - http://minnie.tuhs.org/twiki/bin/vie...ForceDailyCall
Thanks Ed for the update - wasn't worried - I just like to know what/when/where - Good to know

My browser can no longer find the nztivo.slice file to download - has this been shifted?
Probably not - although http://216.58.174.222/tjvinfo/nztivo.slice isn't working, if you drop back to http://216.58.174.222/tjvinfo/ you'll note the following message....Originally Posted by JECastor

I'm sure she'll be back up soon (fingers crossed).

Is there any other way to get the slices via my browser? Thanks
