Digiguide not grabbing all channels

Post by thedoctor » Fri Jan 21, 2011 6:24 pm

Hi All,

I have set up XMLTV GUI to download from Digiguide and when I open the XML file generated it is only containing the channels up to E4+1 (Channel 137)

Am I doing something wrong, I hope someone can point me in the right direction.

Many Thanks

Dan

the grabber should download 5 channels at a time until no data is returned. looking at the log it has downloaded 7 times and the 8th download was empty. check if any of your selected channels have no program data in digiguide. also in scripts/uk_digi.lua there is a line:

Code: Select all

--print(page)
remove the dashes and rerun the grab and post the log here

I removed a few of the un-needed channels from digiguide and also removed the two dashes as you said.

It all seems to work ok now, the log is 23mb though, i haven;t posted it in case you didn't want me to?

Thanks
