Updated grabber for dagenstv.com in Sweden

[petsa]

Hi bozzo870,

It is not that difficult to configure it. Here are a few steps to follow. I'm not sure it is complete since I'm not at home and can check in detail. I've attached my zipped installation as a reference (but stripped out the executable due to size limitations in this forum):

1. Disable webEPG in MP Config, but keep the wakeup time in TVServer Config

2. Create a .bat file with the grabber-command, see grabEPG.bat. Store TVGuide.xml in the same place as webepg.exe used to do.

3. Create a config file for xmltv what channels to download, should be in the .xmltv folder, see tv_grab_se_swedb.conf. I've set it up to grab only the FTA channels.

4. Run the grabber once to get some data.

5. Make sure the TV-channel to EPG-channel mapping is updated in TVServer config.

6. Create a scheduled activity from the Control Panel to start xmltv.exe at the same time as webepg used to run.

That should do the trick.

Let me know if you have any questions!

Is the solution to swap to another source?

Could you try this one? Make a copy of your old one first.

Hi Frantid :)

That file doesn't work. You can test it by opening it in Internet Explorer:

Error processing resource 'file:///www_dagenstv_com.xml'. Line 168, Pos...
<#START> (<#END>)

Also you have <SectionTemplate tags="D"> yet lots of other tags in the template (A, F, S and I).

Hi, I feel pretty silly not trying to open it in a browser before posting.

please try this one....

The other tags are for formatting only as far as the grabber goes, all the data is contained in div tags. Is there something in the other tags you want me to try to get?

Thanks Frantid

Your post made me realize that Dagenstv changed their layout once again. They no longer use random tags. I've cleaned up your file, added episode support and one missing channel
