Hi all, I have just started having an issue with my EPG on Openwebif, currently using BH 2.1.5 Openwebif 0.4.3
I noticed the EPG via Openwebif had stopped working, it turns out the issue is that Autobouquets is generating channel names with non-printable ASCII characters in them, I'm not sure how this is happening but it applies to certain channels such as the RTE channel which has the E as RTÉ . The on-screen EPG cannot handle this either but copes by dropping the channel from the EPG (at least for Cool TV)
It may be this issue is already fixed but if like me you are running older versions I have coded a fix in python to clean up the bouquets that are generated so I thought I would share it here, if you add it to bhcron after autobouquets has run it will remove the non-printable characters.
Uploaded as a txt file, you'll also need to make it executable with a chmod +x before use.
regards
