<div class="gmail_extra">Hi Xander, I too would be glad
to help, but you may be over-estimating people's
abilities to download and compile code. I have no idea
how to download all those files from github and
hardly, hardly ever compile anything. If you could
make it a bit easier to get the software and run it
then you might get a bigger response.</div>

No rush for me; it works nicely for me, but just won't work outside
of Perth - depends on how soon you guys wanna give it a go.<br>
<br>
Apologies about the skill level.<br>
I'll look into making a ppa or something - I run Gentoo, so it's a
bit foreign to me (I've not made packages for Ubuntu).<br>
What is the most common version of Ubuntu with you all? I've got a
Saucy chroot install available, so need to know if I need to go
older.<br>
Failing that I'll do a step by step Ubuntu based guide.<br>
<br>
Managed to compile rb-download statically (just now), so hopefully
it works on other systems. (contains both 32bit and 64bit versions)<br>

As for channels.conf, it's not really worth writing a script to do
it; dvdscan generates it quite easily. <a href="http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Dvbscan" target="_blank">http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Dvbscan</a><br>
If you don't want to install more stuff, and aren't afraid of a
mysql query, I can give an SQL query that gives me similar info

Indeed, I've not really used it (apart from testing); I used to use
OzTivo's data. <br>
This project means I don't rely on either of those services; it just
gets the schedule from the dvb data and processes/augments it to
provide good listings. Also with a couple of patches it allows me to
use the eit info to extend a recording if it goes over! And the
schedule is more accurate (it gets updated when the networks run
behind)<br></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>You could work the other way and intergrate this EIT Data into shepherd, as they already provide a framework to augment the data they receive from various online sources.<br>
