Topics I've Started

EPGImporter added the ability to download EPG data cyclically at a set hourly interval.

1 October 2023 - 00:58

Due to the capabilities of current receivers and the increasing access to FAST platforms, the function of cyclical EPG downloading at a specific time interval would be extremely useful.

I am thinking about service providers such as PlutoTV, SamsungTVPlus, etc., where we can obtain EPG for 6-8 hours for a given FAST platform from various sources, either from https://i.mjh.nz/ or https://www.apsattv/ .com/

 

Plugins @Billy2011 (Rakuten, Pluto, Samsung) also have this functionality and even E2m3u2 Bouquet Maker by Dorik1972.

In order not to mess with the scripts that launch the EPGImporter plugin, which is not convenient because remote control commands are used for this purpose via the WebIf interface, it would be very welcome to add such a function in the plugin settings.

 

Please consider my request, which will be useful to most plugin users.
I think it's no problem for developers to add such a function to their code.

 

Why should EPGImporter differ from currently used plugins? Such functionality as an option would be very welcome in the plugin settings.
This would not affect older receivers with little memory.
 

Regards.


Back to the discussion about EIT and the possibility of obtaining a guide directly from...

9 September 2023 - 00:03

Hi Willy
 
As in the topic, I would like to return to the topic of obtaining a guide directly from the EIT tables provided by the operator.
I read a thread about RadioStream Emulator which easily offers this option for OpenEPG.
 
I'm wondering if it would be possible to expand its capabilities to include the PolsatBox operator (Cyfrowy Polsat), which probably broadcasts its EPG in the OpenEPG format, but I may be wrong.
 
I know I should direct this question to my friend @LraiZer

who is the author of this plugin, I hope he will comment on this topic.

 
I need to extract EPG from the EIT tables of the PolsatBox 13E operator for VOD202-205 channels.
The schedule for these channels is presented only by the operator in the data sent via transport stream by a given transponder.
 
Using DVBsnoop, I can log this data and export it to a txt file, but only now/next time.
I've been playing with this tool for a while now, so I probably don't know its full capabilities.
 
Since epgcasche in E2 somehow handles it right after switching to a given transponder and EIT is saved to EPG.dat, it is probably possible to capture it and save it in another file which can then be freely processed.
 
I will be grateful for any suggestions and comments
Regards
