hi,
I've written a grabber for MP that can get data from the OzTivo website in AU for foxtel and put it into MP. This version is now compatible with TV Server (it actually requires it). I have only tested it with 1.1.0 RC1 (but should work with the 1.1.0 betas). I have also removed the standalone exe.
It's designed for Australian Foxtel subscribers but it could theoretically be used to grab data for FTA channels or austar. You only need to put the correct channel code (eg ABC-NSW) into the channel config page..
It will also create the appropriate channels in Media Portal and optionally configure those channels as 'external' channels - ie, they are set via set top box (STB) (you need And81's IR Server Suite installed for blasting to work).
how to install -
1. unzip this zipfile to your Media Portal TV Server plugin folder (i'll make an installer later).
2. Restart TV Server.
3. Enable OzTiVoGrabber plugin in TVSetup.
4. Configure OzTiVoGrabber (you need a login on the OzTiVo website to be able to download EPG data).
5. run Mediaportal. happy zapping.
anyways, feedback as always is appreciated
