Hi,

 

I am trying to get the epg for the iptv channels by setting the service refs same as of the sat channels.

 

However, it works only if the channels are in the lamedb. 

 

Since many channels are not received in my area, this makes it impossible to have the epg this way.

 

Any solution?

The general approach for this is described in our FAQ's:  http://forums.openpl...t-xmltv-import/

* EPG for IP-TV channels (with thanks to athoik)

 

Also the above mentoined thread gives you clues how to solve this.

 

The problem is that for IPTV streams the used service ref is up to yourself.  So it is very difficult to organise this in general.

So you have to build your own channels file and source file. 

 

Tip: download the rytec.channels.xml.gz file.  Unzip and look inside it for the channels you want.

Copy the lines you want to a separate channels.xml file.

Now add to each line in this new file:  http%3a//example.com

 

So the line

 

<channel id="BVN.be">1:0:1:10E0:418:1:C00000:0:0:0:</channel> <!-- BVN - Beste van Vlaanderen en Nederland -->

 

will look like this:

 

<channel id="BVN.be">1:0:1:10E0:418:1:C00000:0:0:0:http%3a//example.com</channel> <!-- BVN - Beste van Vlaanderen en Nederland -->

 

Change now the service ref from your corresponding IPTV channel to:

 

#SERVICE 4097:0:1:10E0:418:1:C00000:0:0:0:http%3a//url/something.m3u8:BVN

 

(replace of course http%3a//url/something.m3u8 with the actual url

 

This will be the easiest way.

 

Willy

 

PS: if you add to this channels file the sat (or cable) service lines from the rytec.channels.xml file you will only have to import the XMLTV file once.

Dear doglover,

 

i've a have a basic ( i hope ) question for you. 

 

I've successfully updated my service list to reflect the righr reference. My enigma2 receiver is connected to the sat,.

 

The problem is:

 

i can see the EPG on the IPTV channels only if i first switch to the corresponding sat one. In this case the EPG is showed also in the IPTV bouquet.

 

How i can download the EPG from the SAT "automatically?"

 

Thank you.

Good

you're using EIT epg coming from sat, that's why you have to switch to sat first to have the epg.

de-activate the sat epg and use the Rytec XMLTV importer - this will download the epg at a pre-determined daily time.

Thanks Jeanclaude, but i don't know :

 

- how to de-activate the sat epg

 

- which version of Rytec XMLTV Importer to use (i'm on OE 2.0)
