When I run the grablistings script, shown here:
#!/bin/sh
todayis=`date +%Y%m%d`
/usr/bin/tv_grab_na --days 2 | tv_sort >
$HOME/freevo/xmltv/listings_$todayis.xml
rm -f /tmp/TV.xml
ln -s $HOME/freevo/xmltv/listings_$todayis.xml /tmp/TV.xml
It goes out and collects all of my channel data, most of the listings look
like this:
<programme start="20040224220000 AKST" stop="20040224223000 AKST"
channel="C99oln.zap2it.com">
<title>Americana Outdoors</title>
<sub-title>Alaska Halibut</sub-title>
<desc>Halibut fishing.</desc>
<category>Sports</category>
</programme>
But some of the listings look like this:
<programme start="20040224220000 AKST" channel="C808smooth.zap2it.com">
<title>Smooth R & B</title>
<desc>R&B, Neo-Classic Soul and slow jams with no rap music.</desc>
<category>Musical</category>
</programme>
It has no stop="" after the start and this causes my guide to become
corrupt. I tried to run "tv_sort /tmp/TV.xml" but it doesn't clean the
file up, it just leaves it like it is.
I had found in a previous post that the answer was to fix epg_xmltv.py.
When I looked at my epg_xmltv.py it already had the fix in place:
try:
prog.start = timestr2secs_utc(p['start'])
try:
prog.stop = timestr2secs_utc(p['stop'])
except:
# Fudging end time
prog.stop = timestr2secs_utc(p['start'][0:8] + '235900' +
p['start'][14:18])
except EPG_TIME_EXC:
continue
guide.AddProgram(prog)
I can't write a script to save my life so I have no way of fixing this
aside from going into /tmp/TV.xml and deleting the programs that have no
stop="" in them. This file is large for even just 2 days and would take
forever to do this each time I updated my guide. Can anyone tell me how I
could fix this?
Thanks for any help,
Jon
