TV-Browser Blank Listings

[Dynamata]

Using TV-Browser for many years on Windows & Linux, suddenly the listing cells are all blank except 5 live. Tried updating & re-starting no luck.

OS: Windows 7 Ultimate

Not necessarily, but probably for UK channels. There is also the BBC plugin for BBC only. And maybe you can use Hardware plugins (http://www.tvbrowser.org/index.php?id=datahard) to get listings.

Subscribed to Schedules Direct, installed plugin but still no listings, installed Java 8, TV-Browser wouldn't open, re-installed TV-Browser but will not open nor will Java. Where did I go wrong?

[Dynamata]

Installing 64 Bit Java got everything back but can only get BBC listings, forgot to mention I'm in UK.

You first have to add your accunt data and a listing in the plugins settings and then you have to update the channel list.

When trying to update channels:

"Getting channels from VDR... (Found 1903 channels)
Couldnt connect to VDR"

On one attempt a box appeared with all the Freeview channels but they weren't added.

"VDR" has nothing to do with the Schedules Direct plugin. What plugin do you mean? And all channels of Schedules Direct are tagged as US channels.

[Dynamata]

VDR was a red herring, a redundant plugin so I deleted it. I didn't understand the US channels reference but after reading forum posts I selected All channels & the listings appeared, thanks for the help.
