UK Freeview EPG - New channels

moviebuff03 · 2006-10-15, 02:20

Has anyone here managed to incorporate the two new Five channels on UK Freeview into WebEPG or an alternative grabber.

Sorry for my ignorance, but I don't know how to obtain the listings via the radiotimes.com website, although I've created the channels in MP EPG. I know I can do a grab 'over the air' but it seems that the listing are only for 48hrs ahead.

I currently use WebEPG to grab the listing daily from the radiotimes website.

Thanks for your help!
Cheers.

You mean,

Five Life

Five US

James needs to know station names, as he is not based in the UK, so cannot access this info himself, to be able to update WebEPG.

For the GB Radiotimes grabber:

Name: "Five Life"
RT Channel ID 2007

Name: "Five US"
RT Channel ID 2008

Done.

Please re-map channel five too. As I changed the id of this channel from five to five.tv

Hi, I'm looking to add the two new Five channels, but they don't show in the GB channels selection.
In the WebEPG Config window I select e.g. Five Life, then click the "..." button to the right of Channel. In the Selection window that opens I select GB, but there is only Five and not the two new ones. Also, Five is only shown as Five not five.tv as per James' last post. I expect I'm doing something wrong, so any help appreciated!
