DVB EPG Grabbing: channel config ignored

xurr · 2007-04-18, 01:06

I'm using the latest TVE3 and the latest MP SVN.

I'm trying to configure TVE3 so that only a few channels get the EPG data from DVB-T, to avoid mixing up XMLTV data with DVB-T EPG data for the same channel (as this will lead to bad results for scheduled recording...). However, it seems that EPG data is still grabbed for "most" channels (not all the channels, but maybe some of them do not provide EPG?), even if I deselected them from the TVE3 config.

Is this bug confirmed by anybody else? Any workaround available?

The workflow was the following:
- cycle through each channel which has the grabEPG flag set
- build a list of transponders from these channels
- grab ALL infos from each transponder and store them to the db

I already commited a fix to SVN which only stores the epg infos for the channels that have this bit set.
Should be in next public snapshot ;-)

Thanks for the quick fix!
