    Will it be possible to obtain the programme flags such as HD, S, WS, DD etc from the sky epg data? Just thinking it will be useful for the new HD logo in the EPG in 1.2.0

    Thanks, I think it would be a good idea as programmed aren't always marked as in HD in the guide. The others would just be a bonus, if it was all just stuck on to the end of the description that would be ideal. Not that I want to give you more work to do!! Cheers

    Is it just me or is the Onlinevideos plugin broken by the current MP Sky Epg (1.2.0Alpha) svn?


    Sorry wasn't sure where to put a discussion about this svn branch that broke a plugin. Had I put it in the Onlinevideos thread I'm sure I would have been referred back here. Nevermind, I'll work around it.

    Hopefully someone can help me, I've been having issues getting EPG to populate in MePo 1.1.2

    I installed Mediaportal 1.1.2 followed by the correct SVN update on page 1.

    I then followed jobyrne30's instructions from post:

    https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...uk-freesat-epg-43261/index119.html#post654678

    After trying to 'refresh EPG' epg.log says:

    IdleEpgGrabber: channel 'Channel X' is not configured to grab epg.

    Any ideas what's wrong in my setup? thanks

    (epg.log attached)

    Ensure you haven't selected "Store data for selected channels only". The option is in the TV EPG Grabber page.

    This is normally the culprit for this.

    Could you take a look at the patch and see if there are areas for improvement

    What the patch adds is a function called StartTimeShiftWithCustom

    If you send a string and a List<int> the TSWriter will output a TS file with the List of custom pids.


    eg.

    string CustomFileName="C:\\DataForPluginUse.ts";
    List<int> Pids=new List<int>();

    Pids.Add(0x11);
    Pids.Add(0x30);
    Pids.Add(0x30);
    etc

    server.StartTimeshiftingWithCustom(handle,channelid,CustomFilename,Pids);

    If you take a look at the Preview.cs in the Setup files it will show you how it is utilised.

    A plugin can now start the time shift and get a file with what it needs.

    Say timeshift for 30 seconds saving to the custom.ts, do its stuff and then delete the custom.ts file.

    Its quite a simple modification but I fear I may have missed something.

    Thanks.

    I am now moving onto Sky EPG. Now that I have the functionality sorted.
