You are here

Tvheadend

1. Install and configure WG++ (see the Linux install documentation)

2. Make the WG++ run script run automaticly with a cronjob (eg. every day at 2:15)

run

crontab -e

then add next line to that file

15 2 * * * ~/.wg++/run.sh

3. Download the tv_grab file for wg++ and save it as /usr/bin/tv_grab_wg++

sudo wget -O /usr/bin/tv_grab_wg++ http://www.webgrabplus.com/sites/default/files/tv_grab_wg.txt

4. Make the file executable

sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/tv_grab_wg++

5. Run the grabber to check if it is working. You should see xmltv data during the run. Be sure that WG++ has already successfully grabbed EPG data.

/usr/bin/tv_grab_wg++

6. Restart Tvheadend to view and select the new internal grabber: "XMLTV: tv_grab_wg++"

 

Remark:

- If you have installed WG++ into another directory than ~/.wg++, or you have changed the default output file (guide.xml) to anything else, just change the xmltv_file_location variable (second line in the tv_grab_wg++ file).
