Channel Listings

[chris]

I am in the uk and have set gb-pvr to just get a channel (ITV channel 59)
I have set it to only have this channel and am using bleb to get the prog listings.
When I use 'TV guide' there is nothing on the display.
When I use ' Search Guide';'A'-'Z' there are programs displayed.
Any clues as to wether I can use another provider of the listings - and then how to implement them...
In particular I am wathing (now 12:00) a prog that is called (by the presenter and the set) 'The Sunday Supplement' and it is not listed under 'T' or 'S' which seems to be the obvious ones (I do realise that it's not sub's program here but you may know an alternative program lister that will produce entries in both screens)

I use xmltv, in the UK, and I can provide you with the configured files you need if you choose to use it - all you'll need is the installation zip and my files and you'll be sorted.

Let me know if interested

Why don't you upload your file.
I have looked at XMLTV but admit I find the whole thing a liitle confusing.

I use the Radio Times xmltv using the application found at Radio Times XMLTV Grabber for my xmltv source, which gives you most of the channels for NTL

Good idea - I've attached my config file for the channels I watch, and is stored in my local settings .xmltv directory.

I use the command below to update the listings.xml file that gbpvr reads to update:

C:\xmltv-0.5.38-win32b\xmltv-0.5.38-win32\xmltv.exe tv_grab_uk_rt --output C:\xmltv-0.5.38-win32b\listings.xml

There's a bit more to it than that but it should be okay when you run the app from command prompt. Oh yeah - reordering the channels in this config file dictates the order they appear in gbpvr.
