Most of my timers from Sunday on have blank names

I had only given it a cursory glance as I didn't get the problem until AFTER Dave said it was fixed

The fix didn't work for me, I still have the problem

I also didn't have the blank EPG problem, just the blank timer names

I just disabled and enabled IceTV as well, but still no fix

I had the same problem.  I did the following, which solved the problem:
1. Delete the blank timers on the Beyonwiz PVR
2. Go to your IceTV account, and reinstate all of the missing (deleted) timers
3. Refresh IceTV timers on the Beyonwiz - you can do this manually, or wait for the next scheduled automatic update

Step #2 is required because the manual deletion of IceTV timers on the Beyonwiz PVR also results in the timers being marked as "This show is part of a series recording but will not be recorded" in IceTV.  You will need to search the IceTV guide, locate each of the individual programs, select them, and click on the link to "Record this episode".

Manually deleting a timer and having IceTV mark it as "do not record this episode" makes sense in most contexts.  It ensures that the timer isn't re-sent, resulting in you having to manually delete it over & over again on the PVR.  It's a pain in the backside when things go wrong, as they did on this occasion.

Thanks, but it seems to have healed itself
