Hi



Can anyone please help me with why I am receiving the following message

"Valid previously shown format not specified in config, using default"

I have upgraded to using the latest version of xmltv with the jdson grabber
and it seems to be working ok. I would just like to get rid of the message!

My grab command is using tv_grab_zz_sdjson.conf

The beginning of the config file is



channel-id-format=default

username=*******

password=*******

mode=channels

channels=GBR-0001317-DEFAULT



Thanks



Judy

Judy,

Your config file seems to be missing a line specifying your preferred
"previously-shown-format", which can be either "date" or "datetime".

Try adding a new line to the config file:

previously-shown-format=datetime

and the error should disappear. If you do not need the time of day a
programme was previously shown included in the XML output, just change
the value to "date".

Cheers,
Nick
