XMLTV reWriter (1 Viewer)

[D4bFz3awSRYHKjr3]

i'll try and play with it and see what I can do about it

OK, I found the problem, the problem is in the file itself, they use the wrong encoding as far as I know, because when you change utf-8 to ISO-8859-2, the problem is gone.


The reason that it doesn't happen in FTR is probably that they do it in a different way and are way better programmers then me


But I coded a dirty way around the problem, the attached exe is for you to test, it should fix your problem, but keep an eye on what happens with other files.

Ah, thanks, I'll try it out, or should I go for ISO format ?? i will check this out. Thanks.

Hi and thanks for a great little program! I installed it a few weeks ago and it works great, however I now have problems with Rytec (DOWNLOAD=http://www.xmltvepg.be/rytecxmltvnordic.gz). The problem turned out to be some rogue </rating> tags.

SO - i downloaded the .gz, extracted the xml and removed the rogue tags. After that I removed the DOWNLOAD directive and replaced it with LOCAL=c:\rytecxmltv_nordic

Unfortunately that did not work either - I get an "Object reference not set to an object" for each row in the RENAME file.

When removing all lines in the RENAME file i get an empty xml as output... Could anyone help me? And also - since it says "CHECK LOG" - is there any log apart from the console output?

Full console logs below.

Thanks!

This program runs on my Win7 box but on WinXP it doesn't.

"The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135). Click on OK to termniate the application."

Any ideas?


EDIT:

OK so i found out installing .NET 2.0 fixed that error. But now a new problem. The program doesn't seem to work at all. It says check log but I don't see a log. Problem seems to be "Expected DTD markup was not found".

My config is ultra simple, just trying to test. It is like so...

LOCAL=C:\Server Stuff\DVBGuide\EPG.xml
SAVETO=C:\Server Stuff\EPG.xml
WRITECHANNELLIST=C:\Server Stuff\channels.txt
IDCHECK=TRUE

Halp!

do you actually have 'I15.751387.microsoft.com' in your file?

This program runs on my Win7 box but on WinXP it doesn't.

"The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135). Click on OK to termniate the application."

Can you see a file called xmltv.dtd?


By the way for everybody, at the beginning of the console output, you can see where the log file is stored. But it's basically the same as the console output.

with this in the CONFIG1.txt

DOWNLOAD=http://xmltv.myftp.org/download/complet.zip
WRITECHANNELLIST=C:\tvguide\channels.txt
IDCHECK=FALSE
SAVETO=C:\tvguide\tvguide1.xml

Any idea ?

Thanks

Try using the attached xmltv.dtd file instead of the one that is being downloaded.

Well yes... Otherwise it would have been kind of easy to figure out the error... However - now the error in the original rytec xml seems to have been fixed which means that the file works as intended right after download. Some kind of fault tolerance in XMLTV rewriter would be great through, even though i know that the author is not interested in such developmen.

But - when the xml is correct the program is fantastic! Three thumbs up!

Hi Ocram,

Can you please give an example how to extract 3 providers and join them together.
I can't figure out your readme file.

Thanks,
Gunther
