Hi all, As the current developer of the Radio Times XMLTV grabber (xmltv.org) I've been wanting to support BBC Radio listings for some time, and the /programmes XML feeds seem to be a great alternative, as we have little to no contact/support from the RT developers. I have two questions: i) Is the DTD used for the /programmes XML detailed anywhere? ii) Is it possible to get listings from today to as far ahead into the future as there are listings? The Radio Times XMLTV feed uses single daily-generated files for each channel (14 days' worth of data per file) and so rather than grab on a per-day basis, I would like to be able to grab all available data in a single request. Thanks, Nick -- Nick Morrott MythTV Official wiki: http://mythtv.org/wiki/ MythTV users list archive: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users "An investment in knowledge always pays the best interest." - Benjamin Franklin - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
