Method to invoke manual EPG refresh?

CodeMonkey · 2007-03-30, 21:18

I took the C# source that a couple people posted on here and I'm putting together a little app so that I can watch my local TV channels while I'm on the road via my laptop. Not sure how it will work over a WAN but it's worth a try

Is there currently a way for a client to manually have the TVEngine server do a EPG Refresh? I looked in TVServer and RemoteControl and didn't see anything. If not, would it be a good idea to add it?

Thanks.

Hi,

IController (thus RemoteControl) has a bool property called "EpgGrabberEnabled". Explicitly setting its value to "true" causes the EPG grabber to start grabbing immediately. Is that what you meant?

Kind regards,
Michel

Yes it is. From the name 'Enabled' I assumed it was meant to be used as a check and not a command. Thanks.
