Some stations not getting EPG #18

Closed AnneWielis closed 1 year ago

AnneWielis commented 1 year ago

Sorry, if that is answered elsewhere...some stations don't seem to get EPG Data, although activated in the plugin.

How exactly is the mapping working?

Any help appreciated ;-)

As far as I know this could be because of an invalid tvg-id name in your m3u file.

Mine looks like this:

#EXTINF:0 tvg-id="ARD.de",Das Erste HD

AnneWielis commented 1 year ago

So the tvg-id in the Station Information is the reference key? What information in the grabbed EPG does it have to map?

dadav commented 1 year ago

Exactly, tvg-id has to match the channel in your guide.xml file. It should look like this:

<channel id="ARD.de">
...
</channel>

So i have to either patch the channel m3u (which currently comes from http://bit.ly/kn-kodi-tv ) or the guide.xml after downloading, right? I hoped there was some method to tweak the matching process itself.

Yeah...I think currently this is the only way. I'm doing it by modifying the m3u file and hosting it in a github repository.

OK, thanks so much for clarifying that.
