The don't update the data every day. The seem to do it Thursday night,

Not sure there are any more holes or errors than you'd find in any 
published set of data though.  Stations change things at the last minute.


Anyway, as long as it is a few days ahead, it doesn't matter so much to 
me, as once you have all your regular stuff scheduled, the only thing I 
need it for is to record the occasional movie and I mostly only do  that 
on the day it is showing.

I've been using this as a backup solution because I noticed that there

I am currently using it and it works fine so far, will continue to use
it and monitor things. Although I will certainly look at the oztivo
one, as I knew they had some tv guide data, however hadn't seen or
found script to grab it.

The immir script is probably the most widely used tv_grab_au. It's
updated very quickly by Michael Smith (immir) and by users on this list.

There is an excellent solution that uses the OzTiVo guide data, which is
perhaps the most rock-solid data around, Australia wide. Prior to using
the OzTiVo stuff, I'd changed tv_grab_au scripts a half dozen times as
each became inactive.

You need to create a user on the following community group;
http://minnie.tuhs.org/twiki/bin/view/TVGuide/OverView

And use the grabber sourced from here;
http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~willu/xmltv/ (look under the "Community
Based guide") heading.

As an aside, someone's just written a solution to allow MCE to access
the OzTiVo data as well, for any heathens out there

Let us know how you go.

Cheers, 

Steve Baker

Any Ozzies about on the lists, if so I am in Sydney and trying to find a
suitable tv_grab_au script that will use a free tv guide feed.

Could someone forward me a script or url to a working current script for
some tv guide data, I am a bit out of the loop.
