EPG Guide in .xml.gz format

[groenator]

Yeah, most likely is using something like you said. All I know is the source is update it every day and is using webgrab+ to download the EPG guide. 

I have smaller files, like this; https://github.com/epgshare01/share01/bl...ZA1.xml.gz

I am trying to import this guide: https://github.com/epgshare01/share01/bl...z?raw=true

This link wasn't being interpreted as gzip because of the content-type header being returned by github. I've modified the next build to handle it.

Hello

Sub added support for gz file in v4 not sure if that is for local files though which is why you need to include logs with posts.

Just to be sure : is gzip xml file supported by v4 ?

Thanks

Not 100% based on sub's last comment that he made a change in v5.

Yes, but v4 is a pickier about it than v5. v4 needs the server to clearly identify it as gzip. v5 can handle situations where the server is not clearly identifying it as a gzip.

Thanks for your quick reply.

I use a updateEPG.bat script to download the file and put it in NPVR folder as "EPG.xml".

It was working fine until today because the file downloaded is now a gzip one.

I tried to put it as EPG.gz but i can't choose a file other type than xml in settings\channels\XMLTV file

Am i doing something wrong ?

Sorry to be in the v5 forum...

I think v4 only supported gzipped content from a server url, not from a file.

Since you're downloading it in an UpdateEPG.bat, there is nothing to stop you unzipping it in the batch file, so it's just a regular xml file by the time NextPVR sees it.

Hi,

Sorry i didn't been notified for your reply...

I can't find this option "from a server url", where is it ?

Yes i could decompress with batch but i don't know how. Maybe with 7-zip..., if i do that, i will have to learn how to do...

Thanks
