[backstage] Why are there more advanced schedules on /whatson (and radiotimes.com) than /programmes?
Just a quick question... Looking at next Saturday's listings for BBC one: http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcone/programmes/schedules/london/2008/06/21 There is only 'joins News 24', whereas http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcone/listings/index.shtml?service_id=4223day=saturday Has full listings, as does the external BBC: http://www.radiotimes.com/ListingsServlet?event=13broadcastType=1searchDate=21/06/2008searchTime=10:25jspGridLocation=/jsp/tv_listings_grid.jspjspListLocation=/jsp/tv_listings_single.jspjspError=/jsp/error.jsplistingsFormat=G Why is this?

More generally What's On and the Radio Times are fed by a different system than iPlayer and Programmes, which accounts for the discrepancy.

[backstage] Cool Accessibilty Hacks and Subtitles using BBC Redux @ Mashed
Hi everyone! We are giving a talk called Cool Accessibilty Hacks and Subtitles using BBC Redux at Mashed this weekend. For Mashed we're making an archive of our TV and radio programmes available on the web on a system called BBC Redux. You'll find our programmes in their native broadcast form (MPEG-2 transport streams or .ts files). Trial accounts on BBC Redux are available from today for Mashed attendees. These accounts will be disabled on Friday 20th June and re-enabled at Mashed for anyone doing an accessibility hack. An account can be got by emailing me back at [EMAIL PROTECTED] (word of warning - I can only approve requests for Mashed attendees) See http://mashed08.backnetwork.com/event/?articleid=28 for more info:) Alia Sheikh Research Engineer Kingswood Warren - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.

If people want to build their own version at home, I'll be there talking about Kamaelia and showing people how to get started with it. (That's not everything Kamaelia does by a long shot, but it's one thing it can do well) As long as you don't redistribute, it's just timeshifting (ala any other PVR). Redux isn't powered by kamaelia, but it could've been because the Kamaelia Macro code was up and running around a year beforehand. For those who can't wait, this page describes an overview of macro, and has a an embedded presentation from OSCON 2006 where I went over the internals. * http://edit.kamaelia.org/KamaeliaMacro (No idea why Kamaelia wasn't used for redux really - it was soak tested over the course of a year with no restarts other than diskspace issues, but then mine is not to reason why :) For those curious, Kamaelia Macro was commissioned by Tom Loosemore) (My only reason for mentioning this is in case anyone wants to build their own at Mashed, and the fact that we're planning a new beta release / release candidate for Mashed. Personally I'm planning on using it to write a modern version of speak and spell using it based on handwriting recognition and speech synthesis -- if I get a chance :) Michael. - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
