[QUOTE="BKCH, post: 25590, member: 13992"] Hi all - not sure how many people are interested in tvguide.org.au especially with voxmortis' great work getting around the ninemsn issue - but just in case there are some changes to the method for using the tvguide.org.au grabber - the author the grabber very kindly put in a test for tzset and changed a couple of this so the following is the new recipe: 1. Download the grabber from: [url]http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~willu/xmltv/tv_grab_au_tuhs[/url]. 2. Download and install a python interpreter - I used the free ActiveState distribution found at: [url]http://www.activestate.com/Products/ActivePythonFamily/?tn=1[/url]. 3. Run tv_grab_au_tuhs.py --configure - I recommend using -c to override the config file location so the command would be: tv_grab_au_tuhs.py --configure -c <config file path\name> 4. Edit the file that was created in the above step - In the obvious spot put your username and password for tvguide.org.au. You'll also need to add a line for each channel you want to grab - it should be pretty obvious but the *new* format is: <channel display="<MP channel name>" tuhs="<TVGuide.org.au channel name" /> An interesting note here is that for the +2 channels you'll need to substitute "%2B" for the "+" in the <tvguide.org.au> - but then after the grab we need to search and replace those %2B's back to +'s. I have a config file for Sydney FTA + full Foxtel so PM me if you want a copy! 5. Run: tv_grab_au_tuhs.py -c <config file path\name> -o rawguide.xml 6. Download something like SED - I used [url]http://www.cornerstonemag.com/sed/[/url] - just download and unzip into the directory that has you grabber in it. 7. After you've grabbed the data into rawguide.xml in step 5 run the following to subsitute the +'s back in: sed-3.59.exe s/"%2B"/+/ rawguide.xml > tvguide.xml 8. Point MP at your new tvguide.xml, change your timezone offset (mine was 11 hours) 9. Enjoy I found that every so often the grab times out (not very often but occasionally) so I use the following windows batch file to check for that and bring it all together and upload to my 2 media portals: echo off set E0=0 :grab if %E0%==4 goto end if %E0%==3 set E0=4 if %E0%==2 set E0=3 if %E0%==1 set E0=2 if %E0%==0 set E0=1 tv_grab_au_tuhs.py -c config.baby -o rawguide.xml if %errorlevel% EQU 1 goto grab sed-3.59.exe s/"%2B"/+/ rawguide.xml > tvguide.xml :copy copy tvguide.xml z:\ copy tvguide.xml y:\ :end if %E0% EQU 4 echo The grab failed.
