EPG for US and UK Channels

#202
Ok boys and girls we have a problem, this is from Schedules Direct:

October 1st 2022

SD-JSON images now require tokens
Effective 2022-10-01, the Schedules Direct service will be requiring that the user token be presented for most interaction with our servers. If you are running NextPVR v6 or EPG123 v1.7.1.8 or higher then this will re-enable image downloads.

If you are a developer, please check the updated API documentation. You may also contact [email protected] if you would like to have your requests steered to a “debug” server while you are testing the addition of the token to your code.

As of this moment mc2xml (software I use for EPG) is not working, the whole site is down, linux and windows version of the software are not working, I have no idea if it's due to SD changes or some other issues. I'll keep an eye on it, but for now I won't be able to pull the EPG, I've been on it since yesterday and I'm still at it. Looking for alternatives.

Sorry for the inconvenience but this is out of my hands, for now ;)

I been doing some tests with some devices and acid's xml EPG
Sometime ago when I had the Xr4000 BuzzTV device I could not get acid's EPG to work. Then Buzz team did an update and this fixed the problem.

I been trying to get acid's EPG to work on the XRS4900 and the X5 devices but no joy so far, and I no longer have the 4000 model to check it with.
In fact I no longer have some other devices either that worked with the EPG URL :eek:

I know some devices are not compatible with xml sources. Just trying to find out if the 4900 and x5 are or are not.

The devices I have all seem to not be compatible with m3u optional EPG sources.
Currently I am attempting it with the EZ Player, which does have a m3u EPG URL option, but still setting that up (it's been a long morning).


My question:
Could someone confirm if acid's EPG is currently working on any device?
If so, what device ?

Code:

thnx :)

I saw another report that acid's EPG was working thru the XR4000 Buzz device but stopped some weeks ago, before the last update.
Am currently reporting findings to buzz team with all this.

thnx guys :)

well, I think Ryu has solved our problem for us :)

It's a tricky solution but it works !
I gonna do some more testing before I say, I gotta delete all other portals so I know for a fact I am seeing what I am seeing and its not an illusion :)

Ryu is the man !!
 
#213
Okay, I deleted all other active portals, including MAC and API and other m3u portals, so only the m3u with acid's epg is remaining.
We have lift off !!
EPG is populated fully and looks good :)

I will let Ryu tell the secret :)

lol :)

well all you have to do is delete _plus@output=ts from your url

so instead of
Code: 
http://xxxxxxxx:xx/get.php?username=xxxxxxxxxxx&password=xxxxxxxxx&type=m3u_plus&output=ts

try
Code: 
http://xxxxxxxx:xx/get.php?username=xxxxxxxxxxx&password=xxxxxxxxx&type=m3u
and epg should load.

:)

another confirmation that this is indeed acid's EPG that is populating, is because the TSN channels are now showing info, which they never do thru the service's EPG

incidentally now that I think about all this again. that suffix is what gives or allows for certain options, like categories, logos and the like.
Is why you noticed them missing Ryu... we took the 'plus' outta the URL script.

If you check the list of m3u files/playlists there is one listed as Generic M3U and another as Generic M3u Plus (with options).
The 'plus' copy gives the tags for logos and categories and etc...
