[QUOTE="Benoire, post: 964637, member: 121281"] Hi @[URL='https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/members/djblu.54957/']DJBlu[/URL] I've been trying to create a plugin that would emulate what you've created with the freeview/Sky UK/Sky IT work. Unfortunately I am unable to make anything work. I even had a peek in your dlls for inspiration but hell that just shows that I don't know enough about VB to do what you have done (I'm a civil engineer and have not done a lot of programming; especially lambda expressions). I realise that you're busy doing all sorts of wonderful work but are you able to adapt your plugin to work fully in New Zealand? Currently, the UK one works and can scan channels (as long as I change the transponder information to the correct ones) as well as play them and I'm certain it would update them too as long as it remembered the correct transponder settings once entered. However, due to some inconsistencies in the way Sky NZ have rolled out their platform, they don't conform to the same LCN pattern and their EPG is populated with some erroneous code which adds extra characters at the front of the titles. I've attached the image of the EPG: [ATTACH=full]121915[/ATTACH] I know that the LCN/EPG data is stored on Optus D1 TP NZ13 Freq: 12519000 TSID: 3 SID: 9003 and SR: 22500 with a Horizontal polarity. The LCN's appear to be hidden in 0xb1 (this code was taken from EPGCollector, which was developed by NZSJB and MM1352000 for MHEPG use in NZ [FONT=Consolas][COLOR=blue]internal[/COLOR][/FONT][FONT=Consolas][COLOR=blue]const[/COLOR][/FONT][FONT=Consolas][COLOR=blue]int[/COLOR][/FONT][FONT=Consolas][COLOR=black] OpenTVChannelInfoDescriptorTag = 0xb1; [FONT=arial]as EPGCollector can pick up the LCNs for NZ[/FONT]).[/COLOR][/FONT] [FONT=Consolas][COLOR=black][FONT=arial]I spent some time also editing the original work you did with @[URL='https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/members/miroslav22.97642/']miroslav22[/URL] to incorporate an NZ specific setting in TSwriter and TVE3 but no matter what I do I can't get it compile; in fact when downloading the original untouched source, I can't get it to compile so I must have screwed something up![/FONT][/COLOR][/FONT] [FONT=Consolas][COLOR=black][FONT=arial]I realise that this might be a difficult task but I can provide all the testing and TS data IF you want to do it; I've just realised over the past month that bar minor editing (which I don't even seem to be able to get right!)
