Possibly I am misunderstanding, but you should be able to do this with
the new duplicates feature. Or possibly even by just using the same
xmltvid.

I should clarify myself. The script actually spits heaps of these
these out endlessly - I assume it's for every single program, so it's
fairly systematic, but I have never actually let it run to completion
so I don't know if it writes a valid file in the end.

I can give it a try when I get home.

I'm getting the same thing (with v1.32). The following sequence of errors
occurs, for (I think) every program.

Use of uninitialized value in split at /usr/bin/tv_grab_au line 440.
Use of uninitialized value in string eq at /usr/bin/tv_grab_au line 444.
channel mismatch for 'This is Your Day' (pid = 12469127)
Exiting subroutine via next at /usr/bin/tv_grab_au line 447.

writing xml
tv_grab_au: downloads = 1 guide pages, 242 detail pages
tv_grab_au: finished in 111 seconds


This is only for a --slow grab. Fast ones work fine. The resulting xml
looks like this:-




http://tvguide.ninemsn.com.au"; source-info-name="NMSN
TV Guide" generator-info-name="XMLTV - tv_grab_au NMSN v1$
  
ABC NSW
  
  
ABC2
  
  
CHANNEL NINE SYDNEY
  
  
CHANNEL SEVEN SYDNEY
  
  
NETWORK TEN SYDNEY
  
  
SBS NEWS
  
  
SBS SYDNEY
  


i.e. there's no program data.

On another note (and borrowing from another thread) I would find it useful
to be able to populate two channel's data from one source e.g. ABC TV and
ABC HDTV, both from ABC TV.

was a general feeling that your's would be the best to submit. Would
you have an issue with that?


Happy for that to happen, if that's the consensus.

I myself declined from submitting it some time ago when I discovered 
there were some legal issues involved... out of my hands now :-)

Re: [mythtv-users] tv_grab_au v1.31

Hey,

I thought I'd give 1.32 a go as whatever the other script I'm using
hasn't worked for a week (I've long since given up trying to keep
track of what's out there :), so I generated a config file for
Brisbane, and it works fine with slow => 0. However with slow 1 (after
deleting the cached.pl made with slow=>0, or it will ignore the new
slow=>1 directive - not sure if this is intentional behaviour but it
baffled me for a bit), the script spits out a stack of:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] .xmltv $ ./tv_grab_au
grabbing 5 days into /tmp/tv_grab_au/guide.xml
Use of uninitialized value in split at ./tv_grab_au line 440, <> line 1.
Use of uninitialized value in string eq at ./tv_grab_au line 444, <> line 1.
channel mismatch for 'Jay Jay the Jet Plane' (pid = 12449372)
Exiting subroutine via next at ./tv_grab_au line 447, <> line 1.
Use of uninitialized value in split at ./tv_grab_au line 440, <> line 1.
Use of uninitialized value in string eq at ./tv_grab_au line 444, <> line 1.
channel mismatch for 'Rage' (pid = 12396671)

I tried looking at the code but I'm not familiar with perl at all so
all I saw was the matrix.. The contents of @td seems to be malformed
however:
- Fire Engine Evan/Tracy's Candy Catastrophe ~~~ Cartoon ~~~ This
children's program follows the adventures of Jay Jay and his friends
as they take off in search of fun and excitement. ~~~  ~~~

Where ~~~ is my delimeter.

I do recall trying to deal with this problem before, but not getting
anywhere. What might be causing this?

Michael - thanks on behalf of Aussie MythTV users for this script and
for updating it to cope with the recent changes. I've been using your
script for a while and I think it's the best one of the different ones
going around.

Not sure if you saw the discussion last week of getting one of the
Aussie grabbers submitted to be part of the XMLTV package, but there
was a general feeling that your's would be the best to submit. Would
you have an issue with that?

Re: [mythtv-users] tv_grab_au v1.31

[Michael Smith]

Any idea's as to why I am getting the following error?

Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at
/usr/bin/tv_grab_au line 157.
Use of uninitialized value in pattern match (m//) at
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/Date/Manip.pm line 267.


There are different versions of tv_grab_au and they are not compatible 
with each other. When you switch to a new one you have to configure it; 
in this case you need to run


  tv_grab_au  --configure

The next release will abort gracefully when being used unconfigured.

Michael.

(website version updated to v1.32 to alert user)

Subject: [mythtv-users] tv_grab_au v1.31

Hi all.

The recent problem with the NMSM website (coinciding with pid changes in
Canberra?) has prompted an update to my tv_grab_au. The latest version
is attached and also updated at .

I've added a (manual) configuration option for program listing
duplication; for example, with the following lines in the config file:

   $channels = {
 'ABC ACT' => 'act.abc.gov.au',
 'SBS EASTERN' => 'eastern.sbs.com.au'
   };
   $duplicate = {
  'act.abc.gov.au' => { 'ABC copy 1'  => 'blah.abc.gov.au',
'ABC copy 2'  => 'rhubarb.abc.gov.au' },
  'eastern.sbs.com.au' => { 'SBS HD' => 'hd.eastern.sbs.com.au' }
   };

will duplicate the program information to new channels with specified
names and XMLTV channel ids. (As usual, this is simply perl code, so be
wary of syntax.) The names (eg, 'ABC Copy1') get incorporated into the
XMLTV channel information; AFAIK these values won't be seen in mythtv at
all.

Hopefully that's flexible enough for most people. (?)

Also, the details url is extracted from the link on the guide page
rather than constructed from the pid value; this should prevent problems
like we all had last week when they change the url format.

Cheers,
Michael.
