new epg grabber?

Added by Claudio Meldini over 12 years ago

Hello, i have compiled tvheadend 3.1.534.g3157a from https://github.com/tvheadend/tvheadend.git and the epg-xmltv doesn't work.

I have selected (in "configuration - epg grabber") :
basic config
pyepg (it's the only choice, the other is "disabled")

external interfaces
pyepg
xmltv

ota interfaces
open tv sky italia (i live in italy)
eit dvb grabber

Is it correct for use xmltv and epg eit?
Or i'm wrong?
Anyone can explain me the new option? (previous version had only xmltv...)
The epg works only for channels i have selected eit in "configuration - tv adapter - services"

The epg for xmltv doesn't works...my previous version of tvheadend works with xmltv (is 2.99...... compiled in 24/06/2012)

In the system log i read this:
Aug 10 08:56:15 [INFO]:epggrab: module eit created

IMPORTANT:
I have compiled my xmltv and the files are in /usr/local/bin !!
Previous version of tvheadend find the files in "/usr/bin" and/or in "/usr/local/bin"

Thanks in advance

I switched to requiring tv_find_grabbers. I have actually re included internal search to avoid problems, but this isn't in matter yet.

Sorry but i don't undestand, can you explain me in other words?
Thanks

Try the latest master as of today. I removed tv_find_grabbers as a requirement (though its still preferred in the code).

tv_find_grabbers is an XMLTV utility script to locate available XMLTV scripts, previously TVH only searched using an in-built search but it didn't always pick things up properly so I preferred to use XMLTV provided script. However since this is in an extra package I thought it would cause some confusion, so I've made it optional.

Hello Adam, i've tried today's version (3.1.540.g1c96e) and now i can select "xmltv italy" in "configuration - epg grabber - basic configuration" menu.
I have also selected "eit:dvb grabber" in "configuration - epg grabber - ota interfaces" menu for channels selected in "configuration - tv adapters - services" menu.

Can you explain me what are module pyepg and xmltv in "configuration - epg grabber - external interfaces" menu?
I dont't have
/home/adone/.hts/tvheadend/epggrab/pyepg.sock
and/or
/home/adone/.hts/tvheadend/epggrab/xmltv.sock
files...
I don't selected any module but, for now, it works!!!

I compiled program with ./configure (not with ./configure --disable-avahi as i seen in various guide), is it correct?

Thanks for your work and for help me!!
