Schedules Direct US/Canadian/Mexico EPG Plugin (Updated August 2010) (1 Viewer)

[geoffstewart]

Hey Milhouse,

I rebuilt the plugin with MP 1.2.3 libs... I don't use the plugin anymore... can you try it out and let me know if there are still issues?

Geoff

Thanks geoffstewart for the update. You said that you don't use the plugin anymore... can we know why? Are you aware of an other method to get EPG for canadian?

I have a special request to add in the plugin... are you open to ear what my request is? It concerns Hauppauge Colossus/HDPVR users.

thanks.

I switched to using ForTheRecord (FTR) because I found it has much better control over scheduling conflicts, etc. So, I don't need the SD plugin inside MP anymore. I use the EPG tool from FTR now. Ironically, I don't use the GuideEnricher that I started for FTR either. A group of devs have taken that product and kept it going strong but I found that I didn't really need the SxxExx data anymore... weird.

Anyway, I'm open to requests, for sure. If I have some time, I don't have an issue with adding features. What are you looking for?

I would like to have the option to choose the AUDIO input in "advanced option" just under the VIDEO input. This way, hauppauge Colossus/HDPVR users won't have to choose the right parameter for each channels anymore.

here's some pics to help.

thanks in advance. And I can be your tester for sure!

That's a good idea... I mean, I have two HD-PVRs and it seems to me that I used a database editor to get what I wanted... that was well before I started working on the plugin ... your idea is a good one.

I'll give it a shot when I get some time.

Great!

Do you need Schedules Direct account with FTR or I can save 25$/year with FTR.

No savings... they're import tool uses SchedulesDirect, too.

I use FTR and am using WebGrab+Plus (with tvguide.com as source) as a replacement for SD. YMMV, but I find the schedule to be roughly equivalent for my needs and the $25/year savings doesn't hurt either.

Will the current version of the plugin work with MP1.3?

Not sure, I'm not running it... only one way to find out

Let me know if the news is bad and I'll try to find time to compile a version for 1.3.

Cheers.
