Hi all -
I decided to try the lars-opdenkamp xbmc-pvr package and enabled and configured the tvheadend pvr-client. Configuring the xbmc client was the easy part.
Configuring the tvheadend's epg database is where my issues lie. I'm using IPTV as my video source and if I manually enter the IPTV channels I can view them fine on xbmc and on the tvheadend webgui client. So no issues with the streams and the network.
I purchased a 1 year schedulesdirect account and when I run the tv_grab_na_dd command from the terminal as the 'hts' userid, I'm able to download all my channels and events. From tvheadend, when I click on 'save' in the xmltv configuration tab, I see the command in the syslog:
Jul 09 20:25:43 xmltv: Grabbing "North America (Data Direct)" using command "/usr/bin/tv_grab_na_dd"
Jul 09 20:29:20 xmltv: /usr/bin/tv_grab_na_dd: Parsing completed. XML contained 72 channels, 5531 events, 0 new events injected in EPG
I look in my /home/hts/.hts/tvheadend/xmltv/channels directory and see it full of files:
xxxx.labs.zapit.com which I'm guessing are the xmltv id files for every channel.
My config:
Ubuntu 10.10 64-bit (2.6.35-28-generic)
xbmc-pvr 2:11.0-pvr+odk40~git20110530.615e173-0ubuntu1~ppa+odk40~maverick
tvheadend 2.12.99~git20110521.8281379~odk2~maverick
However why are '0 new events injected in EPG' ?? I'm sure I'm missing something here.
Please help.
Thanks
