Hi, thanks for the good work !
It seems that the script will not handle the RTBF auvio channels properly : they are not displayed in the TV guide nor in the TV channel list.

Tested with both the tvguidebe and the tvguideall.

Bonjour @sy6sy2,

Je pense que ton script de génération à un nouveau souci, comme indiqué dans la Catch-up-TV-and-More/plugin.video.catchuptvandmore#316.
Les grilles TV s’arrête au 15/10 et plante l'initialisation du plugin (fresh install dans mon cas) avec un 404:

ERROR <general>: [Catch-up-TV-&-More] xmltv module failed with error: 404 Client Error: Not Found for url: https://github.com/Catch-up-TV-and-More/xmltv/raw/master/tv_guide_fr_20211018.xml

Quelle tristesse! :)

Bon courage, et merci pour le travail fourni.

Hello,

Since two days, the links given in the documentation on the live tv direct in Kodi is no longer active

France : http://bit.ly/tvguidefr
Belgique : http://bit.ly/tvguidebe
Royaume-Uni: http://bit.ly/tvguideunitedkingdom

Is there a problem on Cron trigger?

Hello
It's maybe time to remove channel 19 (France Ô) from tv_guide_fr as this channel is discontinued.
By the way thank you for this plugin and EPG

.

Hi,

Recently a new French channel arrived that replaced France Ô: CultureBox.

https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Culturebox

Maybe we can add it?

Thanks

PS: linked to #9

• Mettre à jour le README
• Fix UK XMLTV
• Mettre à jour les guides TV sans créer un nouveau commit (ça ne sert à rien de modifier l’historique tous les jours seulement pour les fichiers XMLTV)
• Pour l'Italie un offset de 7 c'est trop

Hi! I'm more than happy to have found your repo which seems to be the only one currently available for French TV. I use it with EyeTV, so I use the raw Telerama files to get the right time.
I have 2 requests which would make me even happier:

1. Could you add the actors and directors tags to the xmltv file?
2. would it be possible to get a light variant with with only the DVB channels?

Thanks!

Hi! Thanks again for your great work!

I was annoyed the other day because of a programme change after I set up a recording. If I understand well, your system for french tnt captures the programmes for today+7. Then, so long as the xmltv file is big enough, this file stays the same even if the programme is changed on telerama.

I can see that you don't want to download all programmes every day, and that it is not possible to only download changes, but maybe it would be possible to update all programmes for the following day as well as today+7 and for any days with too small files? That way any discrepancy between what I have set to record and the latest xmltv schedule will allow me to update my recording.

Thank you!!!

Best wishes, Lowflyer

Hi. I just spotted two problems which seem to be new:

• The tv_guide_fr_local.xml file is in UTC, not local time
• the tv_guide_fr_tnt_local.xml file is missing.

Bonjour,

J'aimerais vous avertir que dans LiveTV, section Canada, la chaine TVA ne marche plus.

Merci

Hello,

Thanks for this great tool! Here is a copy paste of a post initially on the main catch up issue log :

The TV guide does not have data for some key channels (sur as Een, la une, la deux, la trois, rtl-tvi, rtl-club). However, there is data for other Belgium channels (such as ketnet) and for French ones (like m6)

Checking the tv_guide_be.xml file (ex : https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Catch-up-TV-and-More/xmltv/master/tv_guide_be_20220102.xml) , I can see there is no data for those specific channels, although there is for other channels.

Thanks!

Copied from Issue #766 in https://github.com/Catch-up-TV-and-More/plugin.video.catchuptvandmore/

Describe the bug

Nearly all EPG data is missing for UK Live channels.
I started investigating this issue in the hope of being able to fix it myself but I have discovered that the root of the problem is in the xmltv data the addon pulls from https://github.com/Catch-up-TV-and-More/xmltv/ and therefore it's not something I can fix myself by editing local .py files - the data is automatically updated by a timed script.

PLEASE NOTE: I'm aware that technically, I should raise the issue in the xmltv repo section but I'm not sure if there's anyone actively monitoring it now - other than the automatic script, there doesn't appear to have been any activity for over 12 months. I will also copy / paste this entire post as an issue under the xmltv repo, just in case someone is still watching in there.

As this problem is server-based, platform info and Kodi log are not relevant - the plugin IS grabbing what little data is available so the log won't show any errors. I will delete those sections from this template and instead, I will post all the info I think is relevant to the issue and urls of the related files.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

1. Configure UK Live channels with IPTV Manager as per the instructions
2. In Kodi settings Select PVR >> Guide >> Clear Data (forces refresh)
3. Select "TV" page from Kodi home screen
4. Look for Program listing for relevant UK channels

Expected behaviour

Programme schedule data should tell you what's on the channel.

Actual behaviour

Nearly all channels show "No information available", however, scrolling several days ahead sometimes reveals a random program listing.

My Debug Notes

My first observation is that in Catch-up-TV-and-More/xmltv/scripts/ there are two folders relevant to the UK:
tv_grab_uk_bleb and tv_grab_uk_tvguide but the Bleb Website is broken and no longer contains any data. The TVguide Website IS working and it does contain all the relevant EPG data we need. The channel mapping and URL structure does not appear to have changed in comparison to the URLs the script attempts to scrape and the fact that it does occasionally manage to scrape a tiny bit of data, I'm inclined to think that the script is timing out while trying to scrape the data.

Looking at the files in the script's raw output folder, the scraping for some days fails completely and no xml file exists, the ones that do exist contain very little data and the log files reveal the failures:

Example:

If we look at one specific channel; "Yesterday" which has the EPG ID "320.tvguide.co.uk"
From the latest update (12th April 2022), the Kodi EPG shows nothing at all until 00:00 on the 17th April where one single show ("Scouting for toys") is listed.
The XML file for the 17th April does indeed contain that show, it also contains a couple more but for some reason they're not showing in the EPG.
If we check The log file for the same day we see multiple complete failures until it gets to channel 320 where it fails on its first try, before managing to scrape 2% of the channel's data on a second attempt.

[Tue Apr 12 12:23:40 2022] Fetching listings: 0%
Unable to retrieve web page for 140
Unable to retrieve web page for 140
Unable to retrieve web page for 178
Unable to retrieve web page for 178
.....
Unable to retrieve web page for 279
Unable to retrieve web page for 320
[Tue Apr 12 12:24:54 2022] Fetching listings: 2%
Unable to retrieve web page for 422
Unable to retrieve web page for 422
etc....

There are 15 attempts to scrape between the two timestamps shown, (a period of 1 minute 14 seconds), which tells us that each URL attempt is only given 4.93 seconds to respond before the script calls it a timeout failure and moves on.
I'm guessing that the one partial success failed at 2% due to equally unrealistic timeout limits.

All is in the title. It seems that the batch didn't run...

Did something break a few days ago? It looks like no new data and "...ImportError: No module named 'pytz'..." in log.txt

L'automation qui met à jour les guides TV semble ne plus s'exécuter depuis le dernier commit du (02/12/2021 12:00:01-CET).

Cela a pour effet de provoquer une erreur lors du chargement de la partie "Live TV" de l'extension qui se retrouve avec une erreur 404 lors de la tentative de téléchargement du fichier du jour.

Peut être que cette mise à jour pourrait être faites avec github action pour éviter les soucis serveur ?

A dispo si besoin,

Bon courage, et merci pour le travail fourni avec cette extension plus que top !

Hello Sylvain.
I just noticed that France 5 is not (anymore ?) in the TNT listings. I checked it is in the full French files.

HI!
When coming back from holidays, I just found that there is nothing in the French programs, starting tomorrow... Can you check what's happening?

Bonjour!

J'aimerais beaucoup avoir un guide EPG pour les chaines canadiennes. L'information n'est pas disponible gratuitement, mais il est possible d'avoir un abonnement payant à Schedulesdirect.org qui peut fournir l'information pour le guide. Il est possible d'extraire l'information de schedules direct avec xmltv, mais je ne sais pas comment intégrer cette information dans CatchupTV. Je comprends qu'il ne serait pas possible d'héberger ce guide (payant) sur le serveur de CatchupTV comme pour les autres guides, mais j'aimerais pouvoir générer le fichier localement et que CatchupTV utilise ma version locale pour le guide télé. Je pourrais moi-même fabriquer un fichier "tv_guide_ca_20220101.xml" formaté comme les autres pays. Est-ce que c'est possible de faire intégrer mon fichier par CatchupTV?

Voici un extrait du fichier généré automatiquement par xmltv à partir de schedulesdirect. Je comprends que je devrai faire un reformattage.

xmltv_schedulesdirect.txt

Bonjour je ne m'y connais pas bien mais il semblerait que depuis qq jours je n'ai plus le programme tv sur la tv en direct.

Le setting est bien coché pour le télécharger, et je vois bien la notif de téléchargement.

En regardant de plus près dans le dossier raw on voit bien que le xml semble léger (ex : je ne vois pas en faisant une recherche le programme que je regarde)

Merci d'avance d'un quelconque éclairage :)
