Hello
I have been using TV Guide and not get a 403 Forbidden error. I also tried Schedules Direct and it's painfully slow... hours per channel. I tried DirectTV.ini and no data is collected.
What .ini should people use for USA channels? (For some of the channels I can use the Canaidan listings (AE, TLC, CNN etc...) but many channels have Canadian version which do not show the same content - FX, Food, OWN for example and I cannot use the Canadian sites to get EPG data).
Thanks
There is a new site added for the USA
http://webgrabplus.com/sites/default/files/download/ini/info/zip/USA_tv....
Alternative for directv but also for many other providers. Less detailed though
Jan
Thanks I will check it out.
Hello
I ran the new site ini and have some observations....
I ran a test yesterday with 15 channels and indicated that it should collect 1 day of data (timespan of 0). It only collected one show (30 minites).
I ran it again today using timespan of 5 and I got a "Cookie Expired for tv.com" error it still ran but I was also getting "The remote server returned an error: (429) Unknown." error. It would retry 5 times. I got only 4 x 30 minutes (2 hours) of programming.
Here is the log...
