Same here cant downloaded beta. I assume it's been stopped till the next beta is available.

I am using the 3.23 beta and do like the time from the stream but as you said there are problems with it.
For example the Nine News in Melbourne on this Sunday says "Sunday News" Or something similar not that I'll be watching as it's some holiday that day:).

And another I noticed was that if a show finishes from the network time earlier than your time and the next show has not yet updated its time then it adds a very short show in between using the Ice guide details.

Hopefully the next beta fixes that. (yes I know network time wont be used for now)

Thanks for the feedback.

3.0.0.24 should now be accessible via the previous link, sorry for that permissions issue.

I'll be available on and off throughout the xmas period so feel free to ask any questions.

Cheers,
Luke

Thanks Luke,
I downloaded the updated beta this morning. The hard-padding is awesome. Thanks for your work on this. It also looks as if the start in sys tray is fixed too.  :)
I'm keen to try the V4 mc7 plugin beta when its ready.
Cheers,
Dan

Start in Sys tray just stopped working on my 64bit pc after a couple of reboots.

No worries, I'll get a fix out this week. Thanks for the feedback.

Luke,
I'm away from home at the moment but I just looked at the web interface to check my recordings and there appears to be a lot that failed.  I'm currently running the 3.24 beta.
Of greater concern is that the iPhone interactive app shows all of the shows are scheduled successfully.  I would expect it to show them with the yellow triangle warning instead.
I've just resent all the recordings and we'll see if they schedule OK.  Otherwise I'm stuffed.

I made sure your box received the full EPG on it's next cycle, and resent all the timers again. Looks ok except for some tuner conflicts.

Thanks for the feedback.

I'll look into why this issue occurred.

Hi,

I've also been having trouble with programs not recording. I did not use any of the beta versions but updated Interactive pretty much when it was available. Am using MC on Win7 64.

The first upgrade (that affected things) I made 3 or 4 days ago (I think to version 3.0.0.23 but could have been 22), no programs recorded on channel 9 and one other (I think it was 10). It came up with the yellow exclamation mark in the IceTV Guide web site "series recording failed" and on the MCTV there was no EPG data for Channel 9 or 10. But all other channels were ok.

Now with the upgrade to 3.0.0.24 (done this morning) I have this issue with ALL channels/all recordings.

In both instances, I have asked Interactive to reload the EPG, re-sync, as well as using the "resend all recordings" link on the web site. I also restarted Media Centre, Interactive and the entire PC, several times, but to no avail.

With V23 I also went through the sequence of changing the channel listings as suggested here:

Hi Joe,

Can you right click the channel, then select "Edit Channel > Edit Listings" and re-select the channel name with "-IceTV" on the end (even if MC says it's already selected). If you make the selection and MC prompts you to "Merge channel xx with channel yy" or "Copy listings from channel xx to channel yy" then choose the "Copy Listings" option. If the channel name with "-IceTV" on the end isn't in the list, select the non-IceTV channel, Save, then go back and select the channel again with "-IceTV" on the end.

Cheers,
Luke

But that did not make any difference (except that I did get the channel listing ok when I selected the non "-IceTV" channel).

I'm happy to help in trying to track the problem down, but when I'm not at home (eg now, I'm in the office), I need a reliable recorder. Hence, can I download a prior version of Interactive, which does not experience this issue? Is there a repository of older versions somewhere?

I've used IceTV successfully for a couple of years, but have only now signed up to this forum.
Thanks for the suggestions in this thread so far.

Cheers
Wolfgang

Sure, you can grab version 3.0.0.16 from here:

Version 3.0.0.25 beta is available with the following changes:
* Improved handling of EPG updates
* Improved handling of startup options
* Improved the way network outages are handled
* Maximum logfile size has been reduced to 2MB so it is not truncated when submitted to our support system
* Log viewer displays log entries from the beginning of the logfile, rather than from when the application started

Hi Luke. The start in sys tray is still not working. The setting only persisted for one reboot. I'm not sure if it means anything but when I change the padding settings and press apply the log says Enabling application autostart.
