Import EPG
Added by Paul Barnett about 3 years ago
Hi all
Currently experimenting in the cloud, and installed TVHeadend on a VPS.
My aim was to load the github IPTV Playlist with about 7000 free channels.
After letting the import run overnight, that was done. But then was immediately hit with the hurdle of getting the EPG imported. It's been a while since I've worked with TVHeadend, and I see the IPTV epg for all the channels is a JSON file, and I see no way to import it. I wish it was a simple as copying, and pasting the epg link in TVHeadend.
Here is the link for the EPG site https://github.com/iptv-org/epg here is the link for the EPG itself https://iptv-org.github.io/epg/codes.json
How on earth would I import this into TVHeaded?
Thanks

TVH expects EPG data in XMLTV format.
A quick google found this: https://github.com/andreask/convert_jsontv
I've not tried it, but it's worth a shot.
