After creating a new timer? This will only fix forward, it won’t fix old timers.
And did the workaround (using guide info screen) work for you?

Yeah, was a new timer starting at Midnight. No luck with the new build (Wrong title still)
Trying to set timer via the info screen and selecting record didn't work either (But that's with the new build).

Check the EPG via the web interface. What I noticed last night was that the times were different on the device (correct) and wrong with extra entries on kodi. Another kodi instance will look correct.
Can you clear your PVR database and try again?

Before clearing the PVR DB maybe you could send a debug log using the testbuild.

There is something very wrong with your DB. Best bakes ever is on at 2:30pm today on BBC2.
Can you check the EPG from the web interface. My guess is you epg db on kodi is corrupt.

Yeah, just checked web epg and its showing Best Bakes for today. I'll delete the timer and db, then try again.
Would you know what the TV32 db is for? I've never seen it before.....or at least I don't remember ever seeing it previously.
Edit: Deleted the EPG db file and Best Bakes now appears for today. However, when I tried setting timer for following item (StreetDance), I'm still getting previous programmes title (Best Bakes). Timer was set using context menu, then record from the guide screen.
Maybe I need to think about doing a complete new install of Kodi?

Also, the latest log you posted did not capture the AddTimer logs unfortunately.

Ok, will try it shortly.
Just tried a little experiment with a new timer as well. I set the start padding on the STB to zero (because we knew the correct title was returned), then updated the timer in Kodi by manually adding a start padding of 5 mins. Programme started recording as expected, 5mins before the scheduled broadcast time and with the correct title. So this could be a workaround if necessary.
Will test your latest build and revert with the outcome.

Ok, tried the latest build and tried setting new timer. No luck again I'm afraid.
Here's what I did:-
1) Put start padding back to 5 min on STB (as I had changed it to zero for my own experiment)
2) Restarted STB
3) Removed both the epg12 and Tv32 db files.
4) Restarted Kodi and cleared both channel and guide data (even though I had removed the db files)
5) Set a timer for a programme starting at 17.55Hrs on ITV2 (Take Me Out).
6) Timer title is reading the programme immediately before (Dress to Impress), but no additional epg entries appearing.
Do you want me to try re-importing the guide data on STB and see it does anything?

Hold on. Let me give you a new build.
