No I don't bother scrapping the EPG it is episode by episode and the metadata is not great. I expect NextPVR users in Canada and the US will prefer Schedules Direct anyway.

I do ask people to post publically if I think a PM should be public, but yes.

I got your PM and basically you are misunderstanding Extras.
- the Extra needs to either provide NextPVR with an mpegts stream via stdin or an m3u8 name it can download from - if you have a direct link to an mpeg ts stream or m3u8 file just use it as an IPTV source. - having the link is not always good enough, there can be request headers and time sensitive tokens on the URL added as security. These need to provided in a script called by the Extra - the URL might be non mpeg ts (ie DASH, mp4, SmoothStreaming, YouTube) so it would need to be processed. Specific to your issue - you cannot use a browser executable to provide a valid stream. - the Extra will not launch a browser if that is what you are trying - you found the right URL but it needs request headers and the wmsAuth token is only valid for 4 hours.

That's why I started the thread off by telling you NextPVR can really be enhanced by the right people. The power is already there, the skills are not.

I hope i am up to the task
 If you follow me here you will find I ask questions. I may ask for the answer but i will also ask WHY is that the answer and how is it working. A little about me, I grew up in the days of DOS and batch files, moved into Qbasic, on to visual basic 6, have a basic understanding of HTM. I play with micro controllers (picaxe) and have started to really dig into raspberry pi, linux as it is another marvel capable of so much also. Where I lack knowledge is xml, scripting, and java and really how and what nextpvr does what it does, so be prepared for a LOT of questions...LOL I would really like to contribute knowledge wise to this project and help keep it free but first I need to understand how it works  Francis

My experience with computers started before MS-DOS and when it came out it was too expensive. You won't need java for this, but you will need to be able to trace http with your browser and F12. Learning regex will be your friend, and python is probably going to be the easiest choice.
Don't expect any answers until you almost have the logic working. Martin |
