Hi,

Just to note that we'll be switching off the old API to schedule data in the next day or so. It now has no schedule data in it, though there seem to be quite a few clients that won't take "no results" for an answer...

Cheers,

Just to note that we will not be putting any new TV-Anytime files on
Backstage - several radio stations are already completely missing from
the data. We'll leave the existing files there for the moment.

The old API will be closed down soon too. Please use /programmes.

Hi,

We are starting to lose the source of data we are using for the
TV-Anytime files on Backstage:

http://backstage.bbc.co.uk/feeds/tvradio/

and the old web API for TV/Radio data:

http://www0.rdthdo.bbc.co.uk/services/api/

This is quite an old system that we haven't really worked on since we
first launched it 4+ years ago apart from a few minor patches. Since
/programmes can provide much more comprehensive data and is properly
supported, we do not intend to fix this problem and so will stop
providing new files and remove access to the old web API in the near
future.

I've mentioned before that developers wanting access to programme data
should now use /programmes instead. However, there are still quite a few
hits on the old web API, so if you are a developer using it please
update your software to use /programmes.

Cheers,
