Hi,
I am trying out ScheduledDirect in the US. I was previously using tvguide.com, but they've put scraping detection in place so it is no longer useable for me.
I've just begun my testing, but one thing that is very important to me is to have a " *" (space and asterisk) added to the titles of new shows.
I am using @Revision 5 of the schedulesdirect.org.ini file.
I see in the schedulesdirect raw data file that the programs each have a line such as:
<schedule program='EP000015221715' station='30192' time='2025-08-24T14:30:00Z' duration='PT01H00M' stereo='true' hdtv='true' closeCaptioned='true' new='true'/>
(Note that the "new=" attribute only appears in the line when the value is true.)
Is there any way in the ini file to detect this attribute and add the " *" to the title?
Thanks for a great product!!!!
Bob
i updated the ini not long ago.
read the remarks,you add your schedulesdirect login info to your webgrab config now.
i add New and Live to the description but the line is there to add the * to the title,just enable it by removing the * at the beginning of the line.
*index_title.modify {addend('index_temp_7' not "")| *}
Hi Blackbear199,
I used the new schedulesdirect.org.ini file, and I am getting the asterisks on new shows.
However, it only successfully grabs the first channel in my list. All channels that follow error out with a null reference.
Attached are my ini, config, and log files
(I also tried it with just 2 shows in the list, but had the same result. 1st channel grabbed fine, 2nd channel errored out.)
Thanks,
Bob
Edit:
config removed.contains you account info.
