tv_grab_combiner the only way to use tv_grab_sd_json?

Added by Mark Nettmann about 8 years ago

Hello,

I would like to use the tv_grab_sd_json script to get my epg data. Issue is, I cant seem to use it from hts itself, but rather have to use tv_grab_combiber to use the aforementioned script. Am I doing something wrong? Is it called something else?

You need to configure it first before you can use it in TVH. Log in as the user you run TVH as, and the run tv_grab_sd_json --configure. Then you ought to be able to run it from within TVH.

(If you are installing from a package/repository, you may want to check that your distro is including tv_grab_sd_json. If you are building it yourself, check the READMEs to verify you have the prereqs, otherwise it won't build the grabber.)

Thanks for the response.

I did follow other guides and ran the --configure switch on all my grabbers. I solved my issue by using the socket method and a cron job. I will explain in detail on this thread should anyone show and interest.
