Get more days of Tvguide!

[2F@ST4U]

Hi,

For the moment I am actually still a vista mediacenter user... but I am trying Mediaportal to see whether I want to switch to this opensource variant I finally managed to get WebEpg to work... but it is only providing me a (Belgium) tvguide of just 3 days.

In Vista Mediacenter I am used to have a guide of 3 weeks!!! So my question... is there any software/tool that will give my Mediaportal tvguide more days than the 3 days that I get of WebEpg? Any advise would be great.

Ps. Perhaps it is possible to (ab)use the tvguide of Vista Mediacenter... I don't know Therefore, any advise/hints would be great.

Kind regards,
Rik

How many days you can grab depends on what the source of the content is providing. I can download 7 days at once. That's the max with www.tvgids.nl . I wouldn't mind having 3 weeks!

Normally www.teveblad.be would also provide 6 days of tvguide... but it is only giving me about 3 days. There is another posting on this forum from somebody else from belgium with the same problem/question.

To be completly honest, I am aware of the negatif point of Vista Mediacenter but I must say that Mediacenter also have some good points. For example, the tvguide configuration and the 3 weeks of guide are just the max if you compare with all the hastle of Mediaportal.

But to make a long story short... is there anybody who can tell me to get a longer tvguide (minimal 6 days) for Belgium. Maybe there is difference between the software that you use (xmltv, WebEpg, .... )

According to the BE grabber files:

www_telemoustique_be.xml -> 3 days
www_teveblad_be.xml -> 6 days

(I haven't checked the web sites) Is this correct? Does the tevebald not provide 6 days? Have you set the guide days to at least 6?

Hi James,

I have checked it again yesterday and yes indeed... it seems like www.teveblad.be is now providing 6 days. But is there perhaps a way to get even more tvguide data?

Regards Rik

Only if you can find a source with more data?

Okay.... I already thought so.... is perhaps possible to use the Vista Mediacenter tvguide data?

I didn't try it yet, but seems to be possible

I am working on getting the zita guide info to work with WebEPG, but that one also only has 4 day EPG with all information and 7 days with only program titles.
