PVR not importing clients data when starting up.

Has anyone noticed that when starting Xenon2 the PVR used to import channels from the clients, but is not doing so now? If I go to the TV Guide menu, and select PVR Channel list, it just sits at PVR 0%. This is on Xenon2 4.0 or 4.1. This behaviour started a day or two ago. I am also using the Fen Light flavour.
Thanks.

Click Live TV updater under tv guide and reinstall whichever guide you want. Loop is default. This will wipe and reinstall. Should fix it.

The Loop changed the guide URLs, so to fix, open the Loop, click 24/7 Zone and click setup EPG.

Same issue, just installed the build, everything is fresh. The PVR manager is stuck at 0% for a few minutes and then KODI crashes. I also get an open-meteo error. I tried setting the EPG like you said, it didn't make any difference.

Actually I did manage to fix it by going back to the live TV section and opening 24-TV. Then for whatever reason it loaded everything, got the EPG working, and when I went back to the TV guide it worked. That might help for whatever reason.

Xenon 2 continuously crashed then cleared cache on Shield. That only stopped the immediate crashes. Then reinstalling Loop did no good, started crashing again. Used Mad Titan app. That worked.
The Loop is loopy?!?

If the TV Guide isn’t populating with the channels,programs, or not playing the selected program, this is what has worked for me.
1. Go to Add-ons (left from Diggz Xenon2 Home Screen.
2. Select “The Loop 2025”widget/short cut.
3. Toggle down to Setup EPG and select it.
4. Follow your nose. Select YES to update to use Loop EPG. The next question is something about whether you want to remove previous data. I select the answer that I want to remove previous data (to start afresh otherwise I get duplicate channels).
