Initial Comment:
In order to help a spanish ZGuideTV user. I tried to retrieve listings with tv_grab_es. The xml file
generated is broken and ends like that :

 <programme start="20080815054500 +0200" channel="17.elpais.es">

Summary: xml-tag "sub-title" missing....

Initial Comment:
Hi all

I was using the tv_grab_ch_search version 1.3 for a long time and appart from its slow performance it worked great.

I recently switched my MythTV system and also updated xmltv to the new tv_grab_ch_search. Since then I
noticed, that no the subtitle information weren't anymore written as separate "sub-title"-tags...

But for all mythTV users this is very unlucky, because mythtv is then not able to recognize episodes...

Is there any particular reason why this tag has been removed?

I was amused about the speed increase of version 1.6, but without the sub-title tag (and thus the separate
subtitle information, not included in title) its not possible to use 1.6...

Kind regards,
Rolf Linder

I haven't tried the grabber, but took a quick look at the source and
sub-title is in the code. (so it's used sometimes)

If you read the man page, it mentions a --slow switch that can get more
detail.  Are you using --slow?

Summary: TV_extractinfo_ar

Initial Comment:
This is an Argentinean version of the tv_extractinfo_en.
I made it to enrich the XML data generated by TV_GRAB_AR and it works ok for this, but I have not tested it with
the xml generated by other Spanish grabber, thus I name it "_ar" instead of "_es".

It does basic functions like parsing the title and determine if there is data that it's note really part of
the title and that should be in another XMLTV field, like "vivo" (live programming), "deportes"
(sports), "noticias" (news), episode numbers, etc. if one it's found it creates the corresponding xmltv
field and removes the data from the title.

It will also attempt to identify what part of the title is actually a series name and what part is actually the
episode name, and will split them accordingly.

finally, it will search the program description to see if it has any additional data (something very common
in the Argentinean sources, as they will usually put the actors names, and other info on the description)
and will add the data to the XMLTV record.

I'm not a member of this development team so this is the only way I have to submit this file for you to review it.

best regards, marianok

Regarding Robertś comment, Well, I do not have a co,plete answer, but
more like 3 parcial reasons. 
a) I guess a generic "tv_extractinfo" can be used for cleaning up
information from other parsers that have the same information (something
common in Argentina, as most of the cable companies, newspapers, and online
sites use data from the same provider, just different layout and some
customization), so instead of duplicating the work for each parser, this
"common" part is there for all.
b) i did not want to add more work to the grab_ar as it's already taking
sometime (still looking for ways to improve it)
c) there is a preexistent tv_extractinfo_en, so i was thinking that it was
a good idea to make it as an independent module.

Like I said, not a 100% reason, but a few partial ones 

Best Regards, Marianok

interesting, I've never looked at tv_extractinfo_en.  Any reason why the
*ar grabber can't do the parsing?

Summary: tv_grab_ch_search: not all channels are available

Initial Comment:
tv_grab_ch_search gets its list of available channels by parsing http://tv.search.ch/programm/. Yet
that page does not list all channels that are actually available ( for instance ComedyCentral ). It misses
many channels that are useful to german users giving them the complete german tv schedule ( e.g. Sat.1 de
instead of Sat.1 ch ).

Two changes are required.
- get_channels() needs to be modified to list all channels by either using a fixed list or by iterating threw
http://tv.search.ch/programm/station/detail.php?id=35 ... maybe there is even a better solution
- the channel ids for some of the new channels need to be added to channel_ids

Summary: EPG grab_be (dutch) Teveblad crashes (max 2 days)

Initial Comment:
Hi, as this is my first post overhere I hope I'm doing things correctly. I've been using XMLTV for about more
than a year and have enjoyed the results very much till now. Besides some problems due to PC hardware
upgrades the program always worked fine on my GBPVR mediacenter setup. As from this week however I have
each day an error when trying to grab the Teveblad EPG when trying to load more than 2 days. I'm not sure
whether there is problem during XML EPG grabbing or if the website has made some changes to limit the number
of days we can grab. You can visually see when XMLTV is quiting the grabbing because during the TV channel
listing it suddenly quits the program at a certain point (PS: it quits to quick to exactly see at which point
and which channel but it happens most when trying to
  grab more than 2 days). 

I've upgraded to XMLTV 0.5.52 but the problem remains. 
I use the following command line in a batch file:xmltv tv_grab_be --output tvblad.xml --offset -1 --days 8
After validation using XMLTV tv_validate_file --dtd xmltv.dtd tvblad.xml > CHKXML_TVBLAD.TXT the
following error is listed: The file is not well-formed xml:
tvblad.xml:4: parser error : Premature end of data in tag tv line 4
ator-info-name="XMLTV" generator-info-url="http://membled.com/work/apps/xmltv/">
                                                                               ^
 at /PerlApp/XMLTV/ValidateFile.pm line 150

The file did not validate as well-formed XML, so no further
processing was performed.

Does anyone has an idea how to troubleshoot this problem and or whether it is a temporary problem due to a
website EPG coding error or not?

PS: It's a real problem in the WDR EGP listing on 01/08/2008 as I made a
new XMLTV config file leaving out the channel WDR and the problem
dissapeared. This does not prevent XMLTV to encounter the same problem on
any channel EPG grabbing for the future so it would be welcome if this type
of quiting could be avoided. I hope someone of the developpers has time to
look at it in detail before the EPG error dissapears when the WDR EPG is
updated by new code from Teveblad for new days to come. Ciao, B.V.

Hi, I found out today that XMLTV quits the program when trying to grab the
EPG for the channel WDR on Friday 01/08/2008. Why I don't know because if
there are errors in grabbing certain characters or xml code from the
Teveblad EPG web I would expect XMLTV to skip or ignore them but not to
quit the program itself. If my suspission is correct how to get this
problem solved? Should it be logged under bugs or will it be solved in the
next release? I hope the problem disspaers after Saturday as till then I'm
always grabbing Friday WDR channel. Anyway it would be great to solve this
for once and ever ass probably this could happen again in the future. Any
reply to help me out or make a workaroubd would be welcome. Thanks in
advance for the co-operation, B.V.
