Major Service Changes at Schedules Direct - Webservice FQDN has changed. #11

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
ScheduleDirect has informed its users that their webservice address will change 
because Gracenote will be ending the guide data service. The ScheduleDirect 
plugin seems to be using webservices.rd.tmsdatadirect.com to get the EPG data. 
According to the note, this address needs to be changed. I have not found any  
option in the plugin configuration or configuration file that allows the 
destination address to be changed.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The is not visible, yet. But starting November 1st 2014, the EPG data may not 
load correctly.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.3.0.1 on MediaPortal 1.7.1 on Windows 8.

Please provide any additional information below.

Here is an excerpt from the note I received from ScheduleDirect:
"We have been informed that Gracenote (formerly Tribune Media Services)
will be ending the guide data service currently used by most members of
Schedules Direct. Their plan is to end support for this service on
November 1, 2014.   Schedules Direct was already hard at work
implementing replacement services.

Please check with your application's support page for your best
solution.   Some applications have chosen to use a new SD-JSON service
that offers a richer data set, while others have chosen to use the
SD-DD service, which is meant to be a drop-in replacement for
Gracenote/Tribune's service."

The code at 
http://mp-schedulesdirect.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/SchedulesDirectPluginTVE3/Sch
edulesDirectWebService/SchedulesDirectWebService.cs 

for the line :  Url                 = 
"http://webservices.schedulesdirect.tmsdatadirect.com/schedulesdirect/tvlistings
/xtvdService";

should be changed to :

Url                 = 
"http://dd.schedulesdirect.org/schedulesdirect/tvlistings/xtvdService";
