You might have to turn on debug logging.
It is usually a utf8 error or some illegal characters in the xmltv file.

.svg logos would cause a problem. Are they in your xmltv file?
Post a link to your xmltv file and I'll see if I can see what is wrong.
Does it not load at all or just sometimes?

You'll have to keep an eye out for a pattern in when it closes and let me know if you spot anything.
It might be something like the last selected channel not being there any more. Some kind of offset error.
Lots of the channel logos are svg.
Try installing 0.17.424 and download the channel logos with
Settings \ Backup \ Download All Channel Logos
They will end up in
userdata\addon_data\script.tvguide.fullscreen\channel_logos
You can then convert the svg files to png with something like this:
https://svgtopng.com/
and load them in
Settings \ Logos \ External Logo Source \ Folder \ Logos Folder \ userdata\addon_data\script.tvguide.fullscreen\channel_logos

NEW!
TV Guide Fullscreen - Blue Skin
script.tvguide.fullscreen.skin.blue
This is a very conventional skin that should fit in better with Estuary.
Note to skin modders. The channel list in the main epg can be resized now. I've made more space for the channel index numbers.
You should also be able to create 1080 skins but I haven't tried it
RE: TV Guide Fullscreen - possibly the most powerful TV Guide in the world. ;) - M89SE - 2019-02-24
Nice skin!
1080 skins are not a problem you only need to create a 1080i folder and make the skin in 1920x1080 resolution.
See our project m-TVGuide, some of the skins are in 1080. If you like feel free to try it out and get some ideas.

RE: TV Guide Fullscreen - possibly the most powerful TV Guide in the world. ;) - avinterest - 2019-03-03
Hi,
I've just setup Kodi on my Shield. I also have EETV receiving free-to-air channels and the box very kindly streams these channels over IP - vlc works well too. The EE box provides an m3u file too so I can map those to a stream in the TV Guide. I'm using webgrab+ to retrieve a guide.xml file on a PC running node-red in the house. All good. I can remotely invoke Kodi from node-red using adb over IP too - so Alexa could possibly be able to control Kodi on the shield (I've used the python api previously too on another Android box). I'm using adb on the Shield because it can wake the shield up too from sleep. I've used the PVR simple client prior to using this superior live TV mechanism.
Some questions:
1) I've set TVGuideFullscreen to open on start. I want it to open on a named channel rather than just showing the guide, is this possible? i.e. "Alexa, Start the day" will switch my TV on, wake the Shield & start Kodi on the BBC news channel.... (I use a broadcom dev for IR)
2) Is there a way to trigger the guide to change channel remotely (python api, adb,....)?
3) I pressed [Record] in the UI. The show went "red". Was it recording? Where are these recordings?
Cheers, S

Easy one first. Recording.
To set up Recording download ffmpeg for your Shield architecture.
Use the "Droid Hardware Info" play store app to find your architecture and download the correct ffmpeg from here.
https://github.com/Khang-NT/ffmpeg-binary-android/releases
Point to the unzipped ffmpeg in
Settings \ Program Scheduler \ Autoplaywiths \ ffmpeg Program
and set the "Output Folder". It can be an SMB share.
You can then Record a program.
It won't record if the program has already started.
You can do an instant Record with the 8 key and stop it with the 9 key.
You can get TVGF to scroll to the correct channel when it starts with a command like:
RunScript(script.tvguide.fullscreen,All Channels,xmltv,53)
"All Channels" is a category
"xmltv" is one of the source options in Settings\Lab2
"53" is a channel id from the xmltv file.
However it is not a good idea to keep restarting it with more commands without exiting it first.
It doesn't work as a normal video type addon.
@gottahavit tried a similar voice control via rpc. I'm not sure how far he got.
Read a few pages from here for some ideas.
https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=282157&pid=2718159#pid2718159
If you don't actually need the epg but just want to start the channels it might be better just to make a video folder and add each channel as a strm file.
I experimented with voice a while ago on the shield with movies.
Have a look at my "Search and Play" addon.
I made an android app to capture the voice input and call that addon's movie_search url with the name of a movie or a few other commands via rpc.

Thanks
The QuickStart on the wiki at Github should be enough to get you started.
https://github.com/primaeval/script.tvguide.fullscreen/wiki/Quickstart
The least you need to do is set where your xmltv file comes from in
Settings \ Source \ XMLTV Source
If you don't have an xmltv source you could make one with my "xmltv Meld" addon
or use one of the other sources in
Settings \ Lab2 \ sources.
