Another epgless day in the UK.

if there is a data source available then it would be, are they on bleb.org? if so then try http://www.de-bugger.com/Misc/DGUK.htm which combines bleb listings with radio times listings

[leejsmith]

for channles with no data source.

just a start time and duration with the channle name as the program title.
a choice of every hour or half hour for program duration.

[birty]

try 2.11 and let me know what you think

If you're feeling in a productive mood Alan - how about adding in some Category mapping into your fantastic grabber?

I've just started looking into this and Sage uses categories to colour code its tv guide. i.e. 'Movie' creates a purple shadowing to all the films, and also means that they appear in some of the searches that are available in the various STV's. For those of us using XML this involves having to translate whatever categories the listing provider uses into those that Sage understands...

If you could incorporate a mapping (possibily in the same way that you did for the channel id's?) into your grabber it would save me having to look for other ways to change all <category>Film</category> into <category>Movie</category> entries etc to make use of this functionality.

Cheers,

SidKnee,

until Alan gets around to it you can look at Nielm's suggestion:

I use it with success.

[birty]

attached is an altcats which will be used to define how to change the categories, the file should contain most of the categories used by radiotimes but i have only converted a few of the categories as i dont know what all the sage categories are, 2.12 will be out in about half an hour

[birty]

seems to be working so i have released it

[Lucas]

As usual.... Alan you are tops!!
By saying "until" above, I meant something like a week.....

Thanks

[birty]

[ukmgranger]

[SidKnee]

Hi Alan - checked this last night and I can also confirm that the new catagories appear in Sage.
