Good afternoon,

Just updated Kodi Matrix to todays build and updated PseudoTV Live to 0.1.1d. I am still having the issue when selected a tv show that is close to finishing from the guide it will loop the loading graphic... returned to guide... and back to the loading graphic. This has happened several times upon testing this morning; but each time I was unable to capture a log as the file was too big.

Things I have tried:
- Uninstalled Kodi and installed to the latest version (7-11-20)
- Updated to PseudoTV Live 0.1.1d
- Restarted Nvidia Shield
- Kodi - settings - PVR & Live TV - Guide - Clear data

Suggestion:
- Could you have the show /movie that is close to finishing automatically play the next if there is a minute to 30 seconds left? This way it isn’t even close to the ending point and we can put this bug to bed.
- Does PseudoTV Live automatically clear guide data from the PVR & Live TV on Kodi’s boot up or is this something you could implement? When and how often is it necessary to clear guide data?

Problems that have been fixed with latest kodi update and PseudoTV Live version 0.1.1d:
- While changing channels a few had no audio (0.1.1b)
- While changing channels a few had no video / sound resulting in a black screen (0.1.1b)
- Channel kickback (A channel sometimes wouldn’t advance reverting to the previously selected channel) (0.1.1)

PseudoTV Live 0.1.1d
Nvidia Shield 8.0.2 (32.5.205.105)
Kodi Matrix 20200710-eed1349b-master-arm64-v8a (7/11/2020)

- "Could you have the show /movie that is close to finishing automatically play the next if there is a minute to 30 seconds left? This way it isn’t even close to the ending point and we can put this bug to bed."

Should already do this...

- "Does PseudoTV Live automatically clear guide data from the PVR & Live TV on Kodi’s boot up or is this something you could implement? When and how often is it necessary to clear guide data?"

Short answer, NO! this is not maintenance or something a user should be doing regularly. It's an easy way for us to rule out persistent issues during "Beta". I've been running this code in my bedroom for months without the need to clear the guidedata.
ie. its not part of PTVL's requirements and/or maintenance. You should also avoid doing this regularly; unless you understand the whys and whats...

-" While changing channels a few had no audio (0.1.1b)"
-" While changing channels a few had no video / sound resulting in a black screen (0.1.1b)"

I'm glad these issues cleared up for you; however, they are beyond the range of PTVL's code and should be considered an issue with Kodi and/or your system setup.

- " Channel kickback (A channel sometimes wouldn’t advance reverting to the previously selected channel) (0.1.1)"

I'd like to fix this, Logs have not revealed a root cause, and I've yet to encounter on my end.... Keep the logs coming and maybe I'll find something.
BTW nowhere in the code does it support this behavior; so I'm stupefied... perhaps some part of Kodi's PVR handles failed playback in this manner... log would tell.
