How to open TVPI file?

The most common problem when using TitanTV Television Listing Format is that a specific TVPI is not associated with the program. This causes the file TVPI to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the TVPI file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.

Step 1. Install EyeTV

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that EyeTV is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name EyeTV into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file TVPI.

Step 2. Create association of EyeTV with TVPI files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the TVPI file to open in the EyeTV application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the TVPI file with the EyeTV program.

Step 3. Update EyeTV to the latest version

If, despite the association of the EyeTV program with the TitanTV Television Listing Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TVPI file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to TVPI files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the TVPI file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover TVPI files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of TVPI file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged TVPI files.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file TVPI except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the TVPI file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the TVPI file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file TVPI to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the TVPI file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
