Tvheadend epg xml

  • I have been trying to get epg on my tvheadend. It works to a degree. I am using webgrab plus but it is so slow.

    I have the following 2 files that are updated regularly, however the channel names don't match up exactly and hence automatically map epg data doesn't pick it up.

    What can i do so that tvheandend picks up the right channel for epg by itself OR some sort of quick simple way where i can define: that channel X in tvheadend is equal to channel X in the xml file.

    Alternatively, someone can help me do something with these 2 files.

    For the channels i watch most i done manual map from tvheadend but seems difficult for 100s of channels

  • Simplest way will be changing channel names in WebGrab++.config.xml like this:

    Code
    <channel update="i" site="uk-sky.com" site_id="2002" xmltv_id="BBC One">BBC One</channel>
    
    
    to
    
    
    <channel update="i" site="uk-sky.com" site_id="2002" xmltv_id="BBC 1">BBC 1</channel>


    so they match Channels you have in IPTV.
    Or alternatively, change channels name in TVH to match EPG.
