Hi,
  Argh - stupid typo.  Fixed now.

Anyway, even with that typo, it should still have created the default config file. You'll need to edit that by hand to add your username and password for the OzTiVo site. You'll also need to edit the channel list to include the channels you want to grab.

e.g. the prototype config file contains:

channels = (('ABC-NSW','ABC Digital'),('Nine-Syd','Nine Digital'), \
('SBS-NSW','SBS Digital'),('Seven-Syd','Seven Digital'),('Ten-NSW','Ten Digital'))
authinfo.add_password(realm, 'minnie.tuhs.org', 'MyCamelCaseName', 'mypassword')


You need to replace MyCamelCaseName with your username, mypassword with your password.

The channels are a list of pairs.
- The first entry in the pair is the name that OzTiVo uses for the channel. This is also the name that gets passed to Myth as the XMLTV identifier (e.g. for d1 this would have been something like 'freesd.Sydney.7.d1.com.au'). You'll need to alter all your channels settings to use these OzTiVo names instead of the d1 or ninemsn ones.
- The second entry in each pair is the XMLTV display name. I think this is currently ignored by myth if you're using DVB. In the longer term, I'd like this to match up with the DVB channel names. I want to modify Myth so that it can use these names to automatically set the XMLTV identifier in future.


Oh, one other thing... when mythfilldatabase calls tv_grab_au, it supplies a --config-file argument. You'll need to fix that config file. From memory that config file is ~/.mythtv/antenna.conf where 'antenna' is the name you used in mythtv-setup.

Cheers,

Will       :-}

P.S. I hope you don't mind that I included the MythTV user's list in this reply in case others have the same minor difficulty.

Hi Will

Having some troubles with running your new grabber:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] mythtv]$ ./tv_grab_au_tuhs --configure
Resetting config file to default:
/home/mythtv/.xmltv/tv_grab_au_tuhs.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./tv_grab_au_tuhs", line 267, in ?
    main()
  File "./tv_grab_au_tuhs", line 248, in main
    exit(0)
TypeError: 'str' object is not callable
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mythtv]$

I haven't registered on the site yet - does that need to be done before
even running the script?

Thanks
David.

Subject: [mythtv-users] Australian XMLTV grabbers

Hi all,

I've just put up a web page describing the various Australian XMLTV
grabbers (that I know about) here:

http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~willu/xmltv/

Comments are welcome.  The reason for this page is that I've just
finished a new grabber (WARNING: untested as yet).  It is available
from that page.

The new grabber uses the Australian Community-based TV Guide data at
minnie.tuhs.org.  More information is available at the page above.
Basically, this is hand-collected guide data put together by the
Australian TiVo community.  I don't yet know how reliable this guide is
compared with d1, but if it hasn't been entered, you're encouraged to
fix that yourself :).  This guide doesn't have the copyright issues
associated with the ninemsn grabber.
