[mythtv] xmltv and tv_grab_nz?

[Gary Te Young]

Hello, I have tried contacting some other guys about this who use mythtv
in nz but they were useless and didn't reply to me.  I haven't included
sky into my myth setup but I will eventually.  From what could find out
Sky is not included in the tv_grab_nz so at some point in the future I
will either write a new app that will grab the guide or modify the
tv_grab_nz.  I will keep you posted.

Subject: [mythtv] xmltv and tv_grab_nz?
 
Hi, I'm looking for a tv_grab_nz that does New Zealand both the FTA and
Sky Digital channels, the current one included with xmltv does only the
FTA channels.
I saw the message posted in Jan '03, pasted here below. with url below.
Does anyone know where I can get this modified tv_grab_nz grabber from
that does Sky Digital channels too?
Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
 
Cheers,
Jaidev

I have my own version of tv_grab_nz which is written in perl instead of
python and it works perfectly with mythfilldatabase using the --file
option.
 
The "official" tv_grab_nz does not include a stop time which from memory
is a problem for mythfilldatabase.
 
Once I have finished adding Sky channel listings to my grabber I will be
attempting to get it included in the xmltv distribution.
 
:D
