Up to date instuctions for UK TV guide data?

[scoob101]

Now we have a new version of sage, I thought I`d have another go at setting up sage. One of the problems I hit before was getting guide data, so can anyone please point me to an up to date step by step guide to setting up UK channgel guide data in sage?

I`ve checked out the sticky at the top of this forum, but I can see its out of date.

I don't have a step-by-step guide, but you have options depending on your setup.

If you use freeview and freeset you could use the Birtles Radio Times grabber.
If you use Sky, then you'll probably need the Digiguide grabber as it had more channels than the Radio Times one. This needs a digiguide subscription.

The output of that I put into StephaneM's importer. You can use the free one, where you have to manually click to do the importing, or use the donationware one which will work automatically.

If you just use freeview, you can tell it in source setup not to use guide data, and it should pick up the 7 day guide data that set top boxes use.
