E4+1 etc. post processing

[gregsmith]

Hi,

I hope this hasn't been posted before, but I can't search for +1 on the forum as it's not a long enough search term.

I emailed Andrew Flegg about adding TMF and E4+1 and other +1 channels to his bleb (UK) guide. He said he's looking into TMF but the easiest way to add +1 channels is for you, the authors, to "add a post-processing step for +1 channels". I don't know what this means, but I hope it's something that can be added.

Many thanks for, now that i've got it working, an absolutely fantastic bit of software.

I wont be adding any special logic for these +1 channels. I've only ever heard of this being done in the UK. To me it should be treated just like any other channel. The listings for these will need to be supplied using the same mechanism as all the other channels. If the bleb grabber wont do, you may need to look at using one of the others.

you can use alan birtles xtmltv grabber to generate '+1' channels from the Radio Times xmltv channels using a postprocesser that comes with the program. i think you can only do it on RT channels but you could just use RT for the '+1' channels and use bleb for your other channels like normal, and then point GBPVR at the resultant xml file....
