thanks for your efforts.... everything works ok when running under the hts user in the cmd line... but not in TVheadend, really can cant work out why.... i've given up for the time being, back to tv_grab_zz_sdjson !

oh my god i think i may have done it...  i changed the database line in the config file to home/hts/.xmltv/databasename.db form just databasename.db maybe i'm suppose to put the full path of the DB when doing the configuration?

here's what i did (i'm using Ubuntu 16.04)


create new directory clone/download the file:

Code:


mkdir tv_grab
git clone https://github.com/azlm8t/tv_grab_zz_sdjson_sqlite


Then just copy tv_grab_zz_sdjson_sqlite file to usr/bin

Code:


cp -i tv_grab/tv_grab_zz_sdjson_sqlite/tv_grab_zz_sdjson_sqlite /usr/bin


Run the file with mange lineup option: 

Code:


tv_grab_zz_sdjson_sqlite --manage-lineups


For me it complained that i didnt have LWP::UserAgent: : Determined module installed, so I:

Code:


perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::LWP'
sudo perl -MCPAN -e 'install LWP::UserAgent:: Determined


change the user to hts (or whatever user runs TVHEADEND)

Code:


sudo su - hts


Run the file with manage-lineups again:
>Enter your Schedules Direct username & Password
>The select 4 - initialize/update local database
>Choose the database name
> Then 5 Manage database lineup channel selection

Now run the configuration:

Code:


tv_grab_zz_sdjson_sqlite --configure


> enter the database name (and it's full path) so for me it was /home/hts/.xmltv/databasename.db
>Answer the rest of the questions (i think you have to choose which lineup up you want and something about MythTV categories)

Then enable the "internal XMLTV Multinational (schedules Direct JSON web services with SQLite DB) in TVheadend
