Request support for tv_grab_it_lt

I am not sure I understand. Are you talking about a vidcap (screen capture) of TV? Like what they have in winTV2000 that comes with the Hauppauge PVR TV cards? If so, I would like that ability as well. I use MP on my HTPC, but I unfortunately still don't use MP exclusively for lack of a few things. But no complaints from my, MP has made big steps and I look forward to future releases.

But yet, it would be nice to be able to hit a remote button and capture a still (de-interlaced) frame from the video. Heck, it would be nice to have that ability from any Video source on the screen.

tg_grab_it_lt patch uploaded

tekscooby,

I have just uploaded a patch to sourceforge with an update to the tvguidescheduler. Updated to include the changes in xmltv ver 0.5.37

Added the following grabbers:
tv_grab_se_swedb
tv_grab_uk_bleb
tv_grab_tv_rt
tv_grab_it_lt

However i have tested all the grabbers I added, and they all work except tv_grab_it_lt. The grabber will not working for me either from MP or standalone. It crashes while running --configure reporting "cannot find /share/xmltv/tv_grab_it_lt/channel_ids, xmltv was not installed corr
ectly" (even though the channel_ids file is there)

When the patch is added to the MP code and released can you try it and report back

That grabber works for me.
Have to register before use in www.satellite.it also no EPG.
And have also to download last alpha buil for xmltv.exe





Update:
Why not add the ability to specify by command line the grabber to use in configure, I mean not only a drop down list box but an edit-drop down....

Please Sebyno,
can you help to configure xmltv with new grabber?

Many thanks

OK no problem.

1: install XMLTV and update to last CVS build (alpha build for x86)
2: make an account on www.satellite.it (user e pwd required - free)
3: make a .txt file in xmltv folder named as you want with your password in it (for example pwd.txt)
4: configure from DOS windows XMLTV

need to do:
xmltv.exe tv_grab_it_lt --configure

for grabbing:

xmltv tv_grab_it_lt --output TVguide.xml --days 7 --password-file pwd.txt


however all sample are in a .txt file in xmltv folder.


for reading this file in MP i think (not installed mp yet) is to select it from setting. I'm at work planning to install this evening......

I'm using meedio until now but i'm planning to change to MP this evening!!!!!
Best support I think


If u have trouble pls let me know. This evening i'll try this procedure.
With Meedio it's OK.


Bye


UPDATE:

I have to configure some cards: skystar2, skystar1, NVTV, leadtek TVxp 2000 expert and also a leadtek beta card with thomson tuner e connexant DVB-T i think it is a blackcard.
Quale funziona meglio con MP???


UPDATE:
It work (I mean my metod for EPG tested even I'm at work hehehe).
Can view TV Giude from inside MP).
this evening will try capture card.

Still at work.....
I prefer to speak english so other people can use this thread, and also because this board is in english.

When u get this error???

 

[pino71]

I've installed XMLTV and updated xmltv.exe with last alpha release.
Then i've launched the xmltv tv_grab_it_lt --configure and all ok.
Then i've launched the xmltv tv_grab_it_lt --output TVguide.xml --days 7 --password-file pwd.txt.
The grabber start, then make the login succefully and get the icons (at this point say "channel 349 is not in the channel_ids, should be updated", for some channel).
Then start getting list: he found some unhandled attribute and after two # the error:"could not fetch http://www.satellite.it/canali.asp?Insert_Date=....."(i could not report all the the string but is very long).

Have you some idea for this error?

Thanks
