XMLTV ID

The XMLTV ID is required for mapping channels to channel listing services.

Schedules Direct

For this service you can find the ID easily:

1. Log in to your account.
2. Click the "Edit" button next to one of your lineups. This should bring you to a page allowing you to select and un-select channels.
3. Find the channel you are seeking and hover over its box. In most browsers a title will appear which is the callsign followed by the XMLTVID.

Should that not work you can fall back to examining the source HTML:

1. View the html source of the page (Firefox: top menu "View"->"Page Source").
2. Search in the source for the callsign of the channel you are interested in.
3. The channel will be contained in a table cell (<td ...), the title is the callsign followed by the XMLTVID. For example <td id="cell_1.13" title="WNED (id: 11709)">. The XMLTVID is 5 digits long, in this example the ID is 11709.
