how to set up 1.0.16 and zap2it

[ljalg]

I just upgraded to 1.0.16 (latest release) and there is no more EPG option for zap2it labs. I recreated by account at tvlistings.zap2it.com per http://gbpvr.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Manual/EPG#toc13 and I'm not sure how to configure gbpvr to utilize it.

If gbpvr is no longer compatable with zap2it, are there any other free listings services?

Thank you

It's not a compatibility issue. Zap2It Labs no longer exists. They shut down on 9/1.

There are no longer any listings available for free except through scrapers that require some work on your part such as the one you are trying.

There are a couple of threads in the Dev forum and the Plugins forum for it I believe. I haven't used it personally so I can't help you on configuration.

Schedules Direct is now $20/year if you don't want to mess with scrapers. http://www.schedulesdirect.org

I used the zap2xml at http://zap2xml.110mb.com/ to scrape the zap2it listings to create an XMLTV.xml file but not I'm not sure how to get GBPVR to read that file as programming listings.

Any ideas?

I found my own answer at http://gbpvr.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Manual/EPG#toc19

I hope others can learn from my experiences.
