AW: [mythtv-users] troubles with mythfilldatabase

[Flo]

If you update xmltv to the latest cvs, tv_grab_de_tvtoday is fixed. As
stated on xmltv.sf.net, they only have made some changes to their website
due to added channels. It doesn´t seem as if they were willing to break
xmltv grabbing.

Hi Matthias,

its maybe a good idea, to use xmlprg_de.pl instead of tv_grab_de_tvtoday.
But be warned, it uses other channel-ids, but work for me until now.
It grabs the tv-data from www.prisma-online.de

Another good start (but not fully-working) is:
http://www.darkskiez.co.uk/dvbepg.html (i dunno about vers. 0.3, didnt try
them until now).
That grabs the epg out of the air.. =) Only full usable in uk as i know.
I fizzled around with the source, but im not skilled enough to get it
working in de. =(

Regards,
Andreas
