Full Program Descriptions Options

[Guest_dvbowna_*]

Attatched (in the zip) is an updated xmltvGrabber.jar which adds a program id to the xmltv.xml, which is then later used to creata a link to more detailed program info in WebScheduler.
WebScheduler.jar also needs to be updated for this to work.

it was actually very easy to implement - about 5 lines of code!

The jars are based off the source from CVS as of today.

If you want to try them out, stop the webscheduler service, backup your old webscheduler.jar file, add in the updated webscheduler.jar, start service.
For the xmltv, just backup the old xmltvGrabber.jar and copy the new version.

I will try to add these changes to CVS in the next few days.

So this adds the ninemsn link next to the IMBD one right ?

I noticed this to this morning, if should be fixed soon, they usually fix this sort of problem resonably quickly.

I have added the changes to CVS and this will be in the next release of WS.

ok since xmltvGrabber.jar isn't included in Webscheduler is that really wise because people will be clicking on the link and getting nothing not to mention the people outside australia that use the xmltv part

[null_pointer]

is that really wise

dont panic, if the url info is not in the source XMLTV file the url is left empty and if the url is empty no link is shown on the details page :-)

Actually that progam id is also usable on www.tvguide.com.au
Their program decriptions sometimes include images or other useful details.

Basically, I had a general question.
In france, there are different channel, some are in mpeg2 and others are in mpeg4.
DvbWS works very well with mpeg2 channels but I wonder if it was possible to decode mpeg4 channel with h.264 codec for instance.
Thanks

WS does not decode anything, it just dumps the data to disk, it will be up to the playback app to do the decoding.

How do you turn a service on and off to make it work?

How do you turn a service on and off to make it work?

Go into the Control Panel then Administritive Tools, then select Services.
In there will be a entry "DVB Webscheduler Service", right click it and select disable and enable to turn it on again.

another way is use the net command from the command prompt:

net stop dvbwebscheduler

then

net start dvbwebscheduler

from the command prompt.

I used to have this extra ninemsn link but now it does not show anymore.
I am using the latest build Version 3.0.20 from this thread http://forums.dvbowners.com/index.php?showtopic=5062. Is there anything that I should be doing to enable it again?

make sure your XMLTV grabber adds the URL tag to the programs and it is valid.

[Guest_aleph_*]

Using the xmltvgrabber from this thread I get output like this

CODE

- <tv>
- <programme channel="ABC2" id="13773133" start="20060127160000 +1100" stop="20060127163000 +1100">
  <title>Jacques Reymond's Secret Recipe</title>
  <sub-title />
  <desc>Forget chip butties and mushy peas with eels and gravy. ...</desc>
- <rating system="ABA">
  <value>G</value>
  </rating>
  <length units="minutes">30</length>
  <category />
  </programme>

Is it the id="13773133" that gives the ninemsn link? Should this data give the link? I can still not see it and I am unsure about what to do to fix it.

[null_pointer]

nope, it needs to have a URL entry
