garyan2 / epg123 Goto Github PK

Hi,

The current implementation only permits to add ATSC (US) channels:

So, I request if you can add DVB-T support to the form for adding user channels:

As you know (the source has reference to some MXF exports/imports) the DVB-T channels are defined with:

• frequency: in KHz (similar as with ATSC)
• NID: Network ID (not used, identical to ONID)
• ONID: Original Network ID
• TSID: Transport Stream ID
• SID: Service ID

So, from my point of view the only missing part is how to call to Add() funciton with these values for DVB-T.
If you need some testing, I can do that.
Regards.

on one of my SD user accounts, the subscription was going to expire august 11, but have renewed. However, am unable to "login" with epg123 now. get this error below. however, on my other account on another pc, latest release works fine.

Every four or five weeks my selected lineups are missing in my account and i get an error in epg123:

I only notice this 14 days later, because there's no guide data available anymore.
So i open the epg123 config utility, re-add my lineups and all is working again until the next few weeks.
Wouldn't it be possible to just automatically re-add the last used lineups the next time the guide update task is running,
without any manual user intervention in the gui program?

I'm getting a bunch of these now and the guide data is empty. What might be the cause?

Version 1.7 stopped building a portable version. If there isn't a lot of demand for it, I can, of course, understand that. I'd like to add my vote for a portable version though. 🙂

Windows 10 20H2 19042.630
EPG123 v1.5.1

Repro steps:

1. User1 logs in, epgtray running normally, no problems
2. User1 disconnects
3. User2 logs in, epgtray icon appears, then disappears
4. See errors in event log

Hi,

In my area some channels changes the broadcast name time to time. Then, if I've edited the name now I can't restore to the new name. These channels are marked with a red label in the Client Guide to indicate that the original label is replaced with a custom label. So, I suggest to add one right menu option to "Restore original label".

I hope you can do it.
Thank you.

Hi,

I have enabled email notifications, and somewhat regularly see issues like this,

Seems odd - is this a known issue?

Thanks!

The output m3u file only contains the #EXTM3U header. If autodiscovered, the M3U generates properly.

is there any chance of adding vista or xp support? I would understand xp but vista with the 2008 media center update basically makes it windows 7 media center, as well as I know some people who are hell bent on using vista and would use epg123 if supported!

Hi,

I discovered that executing the "Copy to clipboard..." command with the right button, more data is provided than the one shown in the UI.
Here is the list of the columns present in the UI:

• Call Sign
• Number
• Service Name
• Subscribed Linedup
• Scanned Source(s)
• TuningInfo
• Guide End Time

And all of these data are inside the clipboard. But in the clipboard is shown also some "TunningData". Example:

KiKA HD	103			DTV (DVB-T2)	UHF 36	DVBT:1:1010:11160|KiKA HD	KiKA HD

Here the "TunningData" is DVBT:1:1010:11160|KiKA HD.

Please, can you add this column to the UI too?
And one additional question: It's possible to edit some other data from the UI different from the "Call Sign" (rename) or "Number" (Renumber)?

Thank you!

I just downloaded & installled. When it opens, I get the message pasted below. I get the same message when I run the installed app.

I am running Windows 10 pro, 64bit. I ran the install as admin, and then ran the app as admin. I unininstalled and reinstalled, getting the same error. I have attached log files.

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

Per the XMLtv DTD, there are some additional options that could further enrich the xmltv output. I noticed a lot of this same data is already in the mxf.

Actor data:

<actor role="Karl James" guest="yes">

Would love to have both landscape and portrait options present for poster. Some clients may benefit from having both present depending on which screen they're interacting with in the UI. i.e. Guide View offers landscape real estate and Item View is portrait.

<image type="poster" size="1" orient="P" system="tvdb">https://tvdb.com/programme_one_poster_1.jpg</image>
<image type="poster" size="2" orient="P" system="tmdb">https://tmdb.com/programme_one_poster_2.jpg</image>

<image type="backdrop" size="3" orient="L" system="tmdb">https://tmdb.com/programme_one_backdrop_3.jpg</image>

Would also be very cool to have star ratings... especially since there's already a tvdb tie in.

<star-rating system="TV Guide">
      <value>4/5</value>
      <icon src="stars.png" />
</star-rating>
<star-rating system="IMDB">
      <value>8/10</value>
</star-rating>

Would like to only have ratings sources of my country in the xml.
Is that feasible?

Please fix this, I really want to add my TV channels!

Hi,

Using the ancient GuideTool, the renumber of the channels has two options if the new value it's used: it can interchange the channels or it can renumber the list from the new insertion.

I suggest to almost detect the conflict and ask the user about options, or almost interchange the channels.

You agree with that suggestion?

Version 1.6.1.3
I realize I'm using an old version. (I did not want to start using the new SD 2019 API since they haven't shown any interest in documenting, releasing, or supporting it in the past couple of years.) I have not seen a fix for this in the change histories, but I may have missed something. If that's the case, I whole-heartedly apologize.

For example:

1. Lineup A has a station with callsign WBBMDT which is channel 106.
2. Lineup B has a station with callsign WBBMDT which is channel 2.1.

I run the EPG123 Configuration GUI, select Lineup A and disable channel 106.
When I switch to Lineup B, I see that channel 2.1 has been disabled by EPG123.

I expect channel 2.1 to remain enabled because I receive channel 2.1, but I do not receive channel 106.

In other words, I would like to be able to enable/disable channels in a lineup and not affect the channels in other lineups even though they have the same callsign.

In my own situation, I have a cable lineup and an OTA antenna lineup. I receive some channels OTA but not in the cable lineup even though they have the same callsigns. Therefore, I need to disable a channel in the cable lineup and enable a channel in the OTA lineup, even though they have the same callsigns.

This is a significant issue because WMC may attempt to record on the channel I do not have instead of the channel I do have because EPG123 forces them both to be enabled. (I ran into this tonight and lost a recording because of this issue.)

Hi,

When the file epg123.cfg is not created, but the TCP server is running, the download of the XMLTV file fails (server.log):

[14/12/2021 10:02:35] /output/epg123.xmltv
HandleDevice() - File not found 'C:\ProgramData\GaRyan2\epg123\epg123.cfg'.
[14/12/2021 10:02:35] /output/epg123.xmltv
HandleDevice() - File not found 'C:\ProgramData\GaRyan2\epg123\epg123.cfg'.

The other files "trace.log", "server.log" and "output/epg123.mxf" work without troubles. And the file "C:\ProgramData\GaRyan2\epg123\output\epg123.xmltv" exists and have read access enabled for all.

So I suggest to fix this error.
Thank you!
