I dont use TV and TVServer ...

Attachted the xml where i'm asking

There are a lot of questions. Where is this file. Available for reading. Update frequency of. What will happen if the a plugin it will block while reading. Etc.

This xml will imported through xmltv under tv server. The tv server checked if there was a new one, then he read and import it. The tool kisscon, makes an xmltv.xml put all in there after his work he copyed the namechanged tvguide.xml somewhere there i set it up in the settings.

then he read and import it.

Imports where?

If have a database on the client, or media portals at property, then it will work. Otherwise, no. FH will not appeal to the TV server with questions.

From the guide.xml...

I don't think it's a good idea to read it from the tvguide.xml. If you do that, it will only work if the person gets their guide data using XMLTV. Better to look at the TV Server database. That way you can support any EPG source (TVMovie, DVB EPG, XMLTV, SchedulesDirect etc.).

 

[D3ltoroxp]

So for example when xmltv rrad the Infos from the xml and write it in the tv database so Fanart can read it from the table

Kodi have no integrated tv section and there it works it think it's not so tricky.

Better to look at the TV Server database.

It's just a bad idea. Best of all the data to ask the TV client. And he let them know on TV server.
