EPG XMLTV help...

[Colincam]

Yes, two XML files does work for me too. What I can't figure out is why Zap2It is giving me listings starting on the 16th even with a separate account using a different email address. When I log into their web site, it looks fine. The scraper I use is exactly the same as what I use for the local listings which works fine, only the account and output XML file have been changed. I can't find a reason why Zap2It would give me listings starting on the 16th only on channels that are out of town. It's not like I am trying to watch them. Plus, the only reason I am doing it is because the in-town stations with the same content don't report guide data so I am trying to pull the same listings from another city and map them to my local channels.

I was actually showing you that scrapping zap2it.com works. That is the trouble with using unsupported software with no where to go for support. Good luck.

You can always try OTA EPG for them they don't seem that exiting.

Do you know if Schedules Direct can pull listings for local ATSC stations that do not report data, from a station carrying the same content in a different zip code? I was looking at their site and they too seem to be sensitive about zip codes but don't explicitly say if it is allowed or not. I didn't want to post a whole new thread with this question since it is related to this discussion.

You get 4 zipcodes by default with SD and you can explain why you need more if necessary. Plus you can get more zipcode for XMLTV download using XMLTV grabber.

You can also report lineup errors for missing channels, that they maybe able to fix. I don't see channel 29 there.

Definitely your scraper here is my local OTA using XMLTV but I mapped the first to to the other xmltv file and it look fine for me.  Ignore the channel names.
