Use a downloadable xmltv file with TVHeadEnd on Synology

Added by Inrepublica .fr over 11 years ago

Hi all,

I try to use a xmltv downloadable file on a Synology NAS.
I created a bash script containing the following:


#!/bin/bash^M
if [ "$1" = "--version" ] ; then^M
echo "XMLTV module version 0.5.57" ^M
echo "This is tv_grab_kazer version 0.1" ^M
exit^M
fi^M
^M
if [ "$1" = "--description" ] ; then^M
echo "France Kazer" ^M
exit^M
fi^M
^M
if [ "$1" = "--capabilities" ] ; then^M
echo "France Kazer" ^M
exit^M
fi^M
^M
wget -q "http://kazer.org/tvguide.zip?u=myauthkey" -O /tmp/xmltv.zip^M
unzip -p /tmp/xmltv.zip^M
rm /tmp/xmltv.zip

Then I installed in / usr / bin / on my NAS.
However this does not work, in internal grabber my script does not appear ...

How to solve problem?

Thank you for your help.

Don't you have to register any new scripts with the xmltv grabber? Have you run /usr/bin/tv_find_grabbers - I've done this before with any grabbers I've hacked (although they've always been perl, so I don't know how a shell script will play out).

in usr/local/tvheadend/bin/ i just have: addgroup adduser busybox c_rehash delgroup deluser openssl tvheadend

no tv_find_grabbers for me...

Sorry, I'm being slow - you did say Synology - is the xmltv package even installed? When I ran tvheadend on my old Synology I used to use OTA grabbers, so never used XMLTV.

You maybe have to go and get the XMLTV grabbers from somewhere and install them manually unless there's a package available already.

A quick Google turned up this thread - look about halfway down, starting with "No response ?":

You may also just be able to borrow the relevant grabber scripts from another system if you have access to one.

I do not want to install the package with the XMLTV grabber, I have my own grabber with bash script described above. I'm just trying to make himself useful by tvheadend script as described in this script: https://tvheadend.org/boards/12/topics/6723

I think it is in my case a bad emplacent my bash script.

Mmm, but I suspect (and I may be wrong) that tvheadend is expecting XMLTV - it certainly reads the list of grabbers as registered with tv_find_grabbers. So you either need to use that, simulate it or use the xmltv socket interface.

After much research, I use a different script that works very well.
This is available at: https://github.com/clark17/tv_grab_FR_Kazer

Here is how I did it to make it usable:
- Transfer of the script in /usr/bin/ on the NAS.
- I run the script tv_grab_kazer and appears in the console the stream XMLTVV.
- Reboot NAS.
- Then in tvheadend, Configuration, EPG Grabber Grabber Internal I use XMLTV: France Kazer.
- Do remains only to match the tvheadend channels with the xmltv channel tab, column EPG Grabe Source File.
