[dvb_rewrite] no way to map XML EPG to Channel #90

Closed Lu-Fi closed 10 years ago

Lu-Fi commented 10 years ago

The table column into the channel list is not available

adamsutton commented 10 years ago

agreed, missing config, might have to think this through there is a potential complication in the new system I've ignored so far (in the hope no one will actually use it)!

Lu-Fi commented 10 years ago

Should xml epg data mapped automatically ? Or would you remove external EPG ?

adamsutton commented 10 years ago

No, XMLTV data will always need some "massaging", it will try and match things based on the channel name etc... But that's not exactly foolproof, hence the reason for allowing manual mapping etc... I just haven't added the config field. But there are some additional complications (I think) as a result of the way channels have been altered.

MartinAyla commented 10 years ago

Is there a way to manually add the mapping, editing a channel file or similar?

While we wait for the web ui integration.

adamsutton commented 10 years ago

I don't think there is, reality is it's about 5min to add it to the code, it's just I've not had time. I'll put this one up the priority list though and try and get it done. As there are now a few people waiting on it.

MartinAyla commented 10 years ago

Thanks Adam, looking forward to it!

I really appreciate all the work you're doing on tvheadend (the dvb-rewrite is running great for me on Ubuntu with an XBMC client).

adamsutton commented 10 years ago

sorry guys, only just found some time to do some TVH hacking and had to finish satconf off. I did take a quick look at this after my last message. And realised it might not be as simple as I first thought, due to other changes.

But I'll definitely be taking a look this week. If anyone has a UK XMLTV output, even for just a few channels, that would be useful (don't really want to infect my machine with XMLTV if I can help it).
