Yes, and thanks! As it turned out I'm a complete blockhead. For some obscure reason I've experimented with my TV_CHANNELS setup, which was the culprit. Now it works great :-)=
Thanks for the coding info, I'll add that, and also parsing of the xmlt_*_conf file so that you can choose which channels to grab. Btw, I'm modifying a swedish multi-headed channel grabber to xmltv-ishness, together with a couple of guys who sort of knows what I'm doing :) Brb when done. /PS -----Ursprungligt meddelande----- Från: James Oakley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Skickat: den 3 februari 2004 07:49 Till: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Ämne: Re: SV: [Freevo-devel] xmltv question -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Sorry I took a while to respond, but I was a bit busy.

The proper fix is to define the character set. I also recommend the XMLTV metadata:: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> <!DOCTYPE tv SYSTEM "xmltv.dtd"> <tv date="20040302000000 -0300" source-info-url="http://source_website"; source-info-name="Source Name" generator-info-name="tvguide" generator-info-url="http://generator_website";> If, after doing this, a parser chokes, there is a bug in the parser. You'll also find that Freevo and MythTV will handle the data fine after defining the character set as above. (I only tested Freevo, though) The Expat parser used by xmltv.py performs minimal validation while parsing and will stop if it finds an error.
