programme data not recognized

Added by Daniel Kenzelmann almost 10 years ago

I have issues with a grabber I wrote myself for Chinese TV.

It is located at /usr/local/bin/tv_grab_cntv
I can select it in Internal Grabbers, the channels are recognized.
I also set the EPG source in the channel list to the corresponding xmltv source.

However, no EPG information is gathered from the XML.

Dec 02 22:40:37 [tvheadend] /usr/local/bin/tv_grab_cntv: broadcasts tot= 0 new= 0 mod= 0

The created xml file is attached (normally returned on stdout).

Do I miss something in the xml? According to the DTD, only the title subelement and the channel and start attributes are required.

I am using Tvheadend 3.4.27 (Gentoo)

cntv.xml (377 KB) cntv.xml tv_grab_cntv output

Finally found the solution.
It seems I mistakenly used "start" and "end" instead of "start" and "stop" in the xml attributes of programme.

Looking at the xmltv.dtd again shows me that I was stupid... :-/

<!ELEMENT programme (title+, sub-title*, desc*, credits?, date?,
