AZBox TV API

[fanoSat]

AZBox TV API is released by OpenSat:

To all developers,

Here is the AZBox TV SDK, with it you can manage:

* Channel List
* EPG
* Reserved Recordings
* Reload files

From your plugins

To reload the channel list without reboot you just need to call:
Code:
#define TVSDK_SYNC_ID_NONE 0
#define TVSDK_SYNC_ID_CHANNEL 1
#define TVSDK_SYNC_ID_EPG 2
#define TVSDK_SYNC_ID_RESERVED 3

err = TVSDK_Sync(TVSDK_SYNC_ID_CHANNEL) ;

I've tried to compile the test program but I failed :o15:

I don't have this libs needed to compilte it:

LIBS += -lJIPC
LIBS += -lQWUtil
LIBS += -ljlike_fake

I'm doing something wrong?

Have you tried to compile it?

[hfmls]

i don't have a clue what to do with this. :)

i would like a channel list like dreambox please if someone could make it!
one channel list with current programming next to each channel and % full screen if possible.

[kleinerjunge]

Me, I would like to have a channel editor for Azbox HD where you can merge different channel lists in one! Like Dreambox settings editors. There you just open few editor windows and channel list in it and can copy and paste to other channel lists...

I don't expect this to be possible with this API actually. What I do think is possible, is for example a plugin capable of filling the EPG with external data, or a plugin for managing your channel-list, or ****maybe<< a webinterface with more capabilities.

[far451]

The missing lib files (eg libJIPC.so etc.) are on the AZbox in /MMP/usr/lib.
Just copy them to your test_TVSDK lib directory on your linux machine.

Alternatively, mount the cramfs partition on your linux machine...

dd if=azboz-0.9-xxxx.patch.bin of=patch.cramfs bs=56 skip=1

mount -t cramfs -o loop patch.cramfs /SD
,where /SD is a mount point.

Copy them from /SD/MMP/usr/lib

Now, FTP the test_TVSDK to the azbox to try it.

i see.... i thought we could change channel list GUI now.
errrrrr shoot.... i just don't see any thing good in azbox hd other than playing my movies now..

[SAUS04]

Any proggies managinging to do anything with this API to create a epg pluggin?

[fanoSat]

I tried but there is no do***entation or support by Opensat (i asked in the plugin developer forum but no answers!!!)... the great problem is to tune on the EPG Home Channel I don''t how to do this by software!

I thought the right function was:

TVSDK_LockTuner(HX_INT tuner_id,HX_UINT8 net_index, HX_UINT32 freq, HX_UINT8 polar)

It seems to do nothing... don't change channell!

If I don't go on the channel in which EPG is transmitted how I can do something?

[Smudger]

does it work if your already on the home channel?

[rtificial]

Why not use an external data-source instead of the EPG Home Channel?

Importing XML EPG data seems more relevant?

[sattommy]

A slightly differen approach / request

As we can tune into a channel with this API is there a way to create a binary which changes to the channel you request?

like: ./channelapi (orbital position). So that you give the channel position you want to change to by command line?

Maybe there is someone who can compile this for me / the community

thnx

[fanoSat]

Today I've coded a lot... I've tried to add a fake event to a channel without EPG info (that is eit_info was empty)... the date that I've put in the struct seems all reasonable to me...

I'm a little unsure for these:

* VTYPE_GetVCHIndexByTSInfo() seems to return the ChNumber for tuner B not A! That is the DTT tuner and NOT the sat tuner... sadly the channel is present in all 2 tuner only the name (and frequency, obviously!) change...
* eit_info.event_id = 1; I can invent it? If the channel had the now/next event I think I should mantein it,
and change the information only...
* eit_info.table_id = 1; This a mistery for me... is fake so 1 is good?


At the end TVSDK_AddEPGInfo() returns error!!!
Why?

The ugly thing is that the EPG infos are "corrupted" after the program ends all channels says "Information is not avaible"



static int
AddEPGtoChannel(HX_UINT8 ni, HX_UINT16 on_id, HX_UINT16 ts_id, HX_UINT32 freq, HX_UINT16 sid, HX_UINT8 polar)

return -1;
}

return 0;

Thanks for your help.

A note the original sample code does nothing too... the err variable is valorized but strangely not tested :banghead:

[limak]

I have the same error. I wrote very simple XMLTV parser only for one channel and i cant populate azbox epg list with this data using TVSDK_AddEPGInfo
Orginal sample sometimes add new event but not allways, maybe we need initialize egp update somehow.

[fanoSat]

Yes it's possible something is wrong in our approach... but without instruction is very very difficult know what is!

The fact that the sample code fails too is very indacative :number-one-043:

If you found something let me know...

[kebien]

The EPG information is linked to channel information,generally,where you see values like TSID and ONIT define the lookup table.

My question is,how is possible to make an epg plugin when channel information format has changed so much through versions?
I mean,this release will work with an specific version,how is the work to keep compliance with future changes they make,specially when they do not release what was changed?

[fanoSat]

This my doubt, too this API worked with an old version of the firmware something is changed and now not works anymore...

They must be BIG changed to create this problem and then the released API MUST BE UPDATED...

It's a sort of joke... not very funny :beatdeadhorse5:

[kebien]

I think that too.
You can see channel editors didn;t even work from version to version.
In order to keep an EPG updated you must follow correct linkage and lookup tables.
If this change with versions,you have no option but to follow the changes to keep getting EPG data and be able to parse it correctly.

I think you should find the version this sdk works well,in the first place,only then you should have to see what they changed in newer versions.

Now,EIT is pid 0x12,and EPG MIGHT BE in this same pid or may not.
Different providers use different pids.
And some EPG are encrypted or comressed and so on.

The idea might be the eaiser approach : tune a channel you know epg pid of,then use the correct values for sid/nit/onit/tsid and see if it gets the epg data.
(this given yo found the correct firmware version the SDK applies to)

[fanoSat]

Well get the EPG is not a problem (tivusat platform brodcast EPG in a semi-dvb standard way... the only difference is that is transmitted in only a transponder for the channels)... I could save in a file in some format and then re-write in EPG memory at power on... the problem is how-to WRITE it!

The getEpg() function works; AddEpg() not... so I'm locked...

[goran]

You guys need to speak to DJBlu!!!

Does this help:
http://dvbportal.dyn1.de/forum/index.php?topic=308.0


Cenas (in collaboration with Mfsav2) has made a new release of EPG4plus, v. 0.4.7.7:
- MHW-EPG is now fully functional also on Sky Italy (HotBird 13E 11881V) and was error free in all my tests!
- exporting in XMLTV is pretty ready for myHTPC (to rebuild channels.ini simply delete it and restart myHTPC)...
really nice work!

[digihoe]

Glad to see that the API has also be been updated to 0.2, maybe soon we can have better EPG...

[limak]

I found that if you add:


struct memory_status_st eit_mem;
TVSDK_InitEITMemory();
TVSDK_GetEITMemoryStatus(&eit_mem);

before TVSDK_AddEPGInfo
then you can write every thing to EPG memory (some kind of initialization of Epg stuff)

limak,

DO you have code for the xml parser. I wrote some but i have difficulties to get const char* to the unsigned char array provided by opensat.

Cheers,

[sattommy]

Thanks,

Will test it. didn't get mine compiled :(. Worked without including the azbox files but only compiled with g++ --> azbox files gave loads of errors on g++ :(.

Will write a nice shell script around it to make use of xmltv files with multiple channels.

Do You share the sources too?

However thanks!!!

[limak]

I'm not very proud of this code, I don't remember when I code ANSI C last time ;) but if you want it send me pm

[rtificial]

@limak:

Can you have a look at what Rytec creates? http://www.rytec.be

He provides gzipped xmltv files online, which can be downloaded and processed, for several packages.

A lot of details can be found in a convenient way on the website.

I think he has built one of the most useful EPG parsers so far.

I am just creating a sh script for this ;-)

need some help though with creating a channel.txt file -> map all the freqs en stuff to the xml channels. Like rytecs channels.xml file

[limak]

Soory but I dont have spare time to create lookup table with channels id from xmltv and freq, sid, tid, nid, etc. But now it sould be easy to make some decent epg downloader now. I just share my code with some people.
Have a nice weekend

Thanks Sattommy, let me know if I can help you out in any way.

@Limak: Thanks for your work so far :)

[hfmls]

sorry the noobish guys.

is this an EPG plugin?

if so, can i use it in hispasat?

if not, what is it? :)

[Smudger]

It's the start of a epg populator with data from internet could be called a plugin when setup. I've tried to use it without success at the moment.

[hfmls]

it crashed my box, hehe :)
i dunno if i did it right. gonna wait for something more user friendly for me :)

[tapper]

I just get a black screen when accessing the plugin via the remote, but after entering anoter line for it to download the bbc1 xml , I ran ./epgdownload and it downloaded the data and created the xml files successfully

manually running ./epgwriter I get this



MMP[EpgWriter]$ ./epgwriter

EpgWriter ver 0.1 by limak
Usage:
epgwriter XMLTVFileName Azbox_network_id NID TID frequency SID polarisation

Example: epgwriter tvn24.xmltv 6 318 1000 11393000 4312 1

( polarisation: horizontal=0, vertical=1, Azbox_netword_id=6 for HotBird 13E )



I take it that Ive got to put in all the right params from here

[Smudger]

can someone explain the parameters 6 318 12800 11075000 6 1
used when calling the program.

I see its 14 for 28.2

152 for Hispasat.

think I've got it using Maz channel editor for details.

sat number NID ??? Channel Frequency sat number H/V 0 or 1


can't work out the 12800


got it working for bbc1 on 28.2

./epgwriter bbc1.bbc.xmltv 14 2 2048 10817500 10355 1 > bbc1.bbc.xmltv.log


just noticed the previous post.

[tapper]

ok I think i sussed the params

I ran




./epgwriter bbc1.sat.xmltv 14 2 2048 1081800 10355 1



is it missing the fact that this file exists bbc1.sat.xmltv do I need to set a path.?

Also it couldnt open the Dat files which where I presume the epg is stored

Thank you limak your plugin works great

and thank you Smuger for sussing the parameters

[Smudger]

although I did get a prompt on screen for the adult content password..??


I don't get that have you settings set on your box?

[tapper]

yea I've got the default settings for the content filter, but wouldnt have thought it would have popped up when adding the epg, no matter its not the fault of the plugin just something strange with my box :respect-050:

you have to down load the the files first .

[sattommy]

Ok i finally managed. I added a few lines of code so the orbital position of the sats are detected by the azbox.

I have also made the bash scripts for downloading the rytec xmltv files. (just have to finish a couple of lines of the script but then it works).

To make this work a channel.txt has to be created. The following layout will be used:

#XML-Channel-ID #ORBITALPOS #NID #TID #FREQ #SID #POLARISATION #Channelname(Start with dash)
I196250.750832.microsoft.com 192 318 12800 11075000 6 1 #Nederland 1

The XML-channelIDs can be found at the rytec.be website in the sources.xml file.

If anyone who is interested in using these scripts, and wants to make a channel.txt is so nice that we can put it on the forum it will save a lot of time.

I will upload the scripts either tonight or tommorow morning.

[Smudger]

@Limak

I tried the mtv.music.xmltv example.

In the mtv.music.xmltv.log file the word 'Detial' is misspelt - should be 'Detail'.

Releasing the API code, certainly speeded development up.

Your EpgWriter certainly has a future. Thanks for your efforts.

[SAUS04]

So are we any nearer to having a epg plugin working

[sattommy]

I have a working rytec.be setup here. It only seems to break down sometimes. Need to find the bug and then will release it

[massimo1167]

can someone explain the parameters 6 318 12800 11075000 6 1
used when calling the program.

I see its 14 for 28.2

152 for Hispasat.

think I've got it using Maz channel editor for details.

sat number NID ??? Channel Frequency sat number H/V 0 or 1


can't work out the 12800


got it working for bbc1 on 28.2

./epgwriter bbc1.bbc.xmltv 14 2 2048 10817500 10355 1 > bbc1.bbc.xmltv.log


just noticed the previous post.
May someone explain the relationship between Azbox_net_id and satellite, I'm expecting ID=75 for Hotbird 13E, why ID=6?
The same for 28.2, why 14?

[Smudger]

I got it from Maz channel editor select Anntenna sat and look at the list this is were I got the number from.

[sattommy]

OK :) Seems to be working good now. Found the problem.

EPG-Grabber (Based on EpgWriter ver 0.1 by limak):

This basicly is limaks EpgWriter, with some minor changes in code. The orbital position of the satellite is used instead of the net index, and changed an array which caused problems for xml files with a lot of entries.

This grabber uses the XMLTV files of Rytec.be. First of all loads of credits to him for providing the xml files. His site asks users who want to use this script daily to please use different times of running (Server load). So if you schedule a cron job, let the job run at 21 minutes past 3 for example.

Install:

- Download the package and unpack it a directory of choice on you azbox.
- Edit the channels.txt and download.txt files to suit your needs.

Channels.txt:
This files contains the channel information (azbox specific) with the channels you want to add. I have included about 10 dutch channels. Feel free to share channel.txt files

Download.txt
As this package used rytecs XML packages, and he provides different ones for different countries, this file is used to enable and disable the download and unpacking of these packages. (Please note, only enable the packages which you are using and from which channels are added to the channels.txt

To make this run daily a cron job needs to be added. I haven't looked into cron for the azbox yet, but i am sure someone will soon post some guide howto do this.

EDIT: For western sat positions a minus has to be added.

EDIT2: Just tested it again :( Seems to have some problems. Will investigate and update tommorow. Please reply if you have it working.

[massimo1167]

I got it from Maz channel editor select Anntenna sat and look at the list this is were I got the number from.
Sorry, but from wich field?
I've opened the same program, the same tab for the same satellite, but I can't see 14.
May you post a screenshot with the field, maybe I havent correct settings...

[sattommy]

You can see the number when going to the sat/tp page and browse the sat list.

[Smudger]

also the same number in NET Index field.

sorry image is not the best. but if you zoom in you'll see it.

[SAUS04]

@ Sattommy

How do i install this step by step do i just add this to plugin directory using ftp client. ?



@ anyone .

Anyone want to add channels text file with sly uk channels and uk freesat please :) :respect-060:

[massimo1167]

also the same number in NET Index field.

sorry image is not the best. but if you zoom in you'll see it.
Thank You, now I understand, the problem is that with my settings, the 28,2E has a ID=83 because the estern satellite starts with 68(2,0E) and end with 157 (180,0E) instead western satellite start with 0 (177,0W) and end with 67 (descending 0,8W)

Now I've understand.
Thank You!

[sattommy]

Never mind. Seems to working anyways. Problem is that when you go or come from standby the EPG gets erased again -> 4348 doesn't have this problem, but there is no dts fix there :(

[slegs]

This is great work guys. Huge leap forward or the AZBox.

Can someone give a sample channels.txt entry for the UK channels and i will try to fill it out..

[happyhammer]

can someone explain the xml-channel id in the sample channels file. It mention in the post that it AZbox specific. does xml-channel id numbers 1,2,3,4, 31 etc mean these are the channels numbers from the AZbox channels list? i would't think so as they change all the time.

These are the ID's which are used in the rytec XML files. The xml file has a different channel id for every channel -> and this channel.txt file links this to the azbox channel information.

First line:
1 = ChannelID used in the xml file
192 53 1105 12515000 4011 0 = the information needed for the azbox to lookup the right channel

I hope EPG info will store on a cache file.

[sattommy]

Thnx for the channel.txt addition guys. I head someone talk about problems with asking for a adult password?

Is this a problem? If needed i can upload a new version which sets the age level to 12 instead of 18.

Furthermore is someone interested in the language tags, which will tell what language the program is in (according to the xml)

[hfmls]

guys, can i use these channel lists for HISPASAT 30w ?

can someone post screenshots with this working?

[sattommy]

You can basicly use it with any channel, as long as you can find the xml files for the channel.

Just add the download link to the xml file to the download.txt

And add you channels to the channel.txt

The problem is that you need to find a xmltv file compliant with "Rytec.be"
format...
We need a translator program to a unique standard format.

But I hope to Grab the EPG directly from the provider channel (e.g. for SkyIt is Marcopolo) because different internet repository of xmltv epg file have difefrent format for the same provider...

[sattommy]

No format doesnt really matter -> all xml files have <programme> tag. Only this tag is filtered. Only channel ID's are different.

[sattommy]

Yes massimo. As far is I know it should put. Put the download link into the download.txt and put the following into the channels.txt

101 #ORBITALPOS(2) #NID(3) #TID(4) #FREQ(5) #SID(6) #POLARISATION

NID=NID --> net_index is not used anymore but instead orbital position is used. epgwriter generates the net_index for you in my version.

In this way with using multiple sources, it may be usefull to make an additional field in channels.txt with the source file. So that you can say from which file he has to get the channels -> for when channel 101 is used in both rytec and others.

[SAUS04]

hi anyone wanna eplain howe i install? this to my azbox?

tried telnet and by just placing in pluggin directly. can someone just post a step by step so all azbox's know how to play around with this cheers guys :willy_nilly:

after copying to Plugins via ftp set grabber.sh file and epgwriter to 755 .

telnet to folder and run ./grabber.sh.

that will run it.

now to setup the download .txt file you need the uk file unhashed to allow download, then the chennels.txt requires setting up for uk channels you have todo this manually at the moment. heres a starter.

Just tested and work without change nothing (only the source address).


@sattommy
You are right, when we want update the EPG of different xmltv sources is better to use different tmp download directory, so it's possibile to increase the serching speed (so the script doesn't process all the files) and avoid ID conflict.
would probably be enough to specify a subdirectory of the download file (into download.txt) and the same thing in channel.txt

Now I have just a problem, when I have a look to EPG for the channel with loaded epg data, I can't see description for the events, I can see only if I select Single EPG.
Maybe the problem is that in xmltv file (skyit) for each events there is only the start time, so start time and end time is the same.
I think should be a good idea to set as stop time the start time of next event if stop time isn't specified.

[happyhammer]

probably my set up...but my UK guide EPG was out by an hour. It was if i was in watching in Belgium, ie 1 hour time difference.

[adrray1974]

./epgwriter bbc4.bbc.xmltv 14 2 2045 10773250 6316 0 > bbc4.bbc.xmltv.log

channel settings
you have to down load the the files first .

Question, and yes dont know much about this, but if you downloaded ONE xmltv file, that had everything for Sly UK, could you use the following

./epgwriter bbc1.bbc.xmltv 14 2 2045 10773250 6319 0 > xmltv.log

Where xmltv.log contains all the data, or is it one per channel??

Adi

1) xmltv.log is only an output file with the log of epgwriter
2) If you have "bbc1.bbc.xmltv" as input file with weekly EPG of 1 channel bbc1, yes you can use only one file and one command because "14 2 2045 10773250 6319 0" are the parameter about only one channel.
3) If You use the script of sattommy, you are able to download a file with all channels and than the script split the data for each channel. See download.txt and channels.txt

i am trying to fix this problem soon. Either letting epgwriter do it, or allow an entry in the channel.txt

i am trying to fix this problem soon. Either letting epgwriter do it, or allow an entry in the channel.txt
May You fix the stop time too when no specified?

[slegs]

Has anyone got the script on how to set this up as a cron job

I guess then all that would be needed is to include this in the startup script to run on bootup and then set the cron entry to happen nightly.

[sattommy]

May You fix the stop time too when no specified?

This will not be possible with the current way of reading the file (as far as I understand C).

Today I will add 2 variables to the channel.txt

One to say which xml file to use for the channel
the other one to adjust the times when needed (if i get it into C ok)

And i will adjust the age from 18 to 12

For me it will just work fine then. I will also send the sources to anyone interested.

Regards,

Tommy

remember, everytime azbox go to sleed mode, or you select another menù than "TV", all EPG data will be deleted, so I don't know if there is a reason to download data with con job...

[tapper]

Is there a reason why the epg data should be deleted if another menu other than TV is selected.? if not then is this classed as a bug that opensat should fix for us

since Opensat design is to get EPG from the Satellite signal, its not a bug.

We are getting EPG from a seperate method, so its up to us to find a workaround unless they can assist.

I think this is a bug, or a strange management...
If you remember EURO_EPG with data taken from the satellite, had the same procedure, the data were erased with the standby.
But I think it will be another fight with opensat request correction of this behavior.

However what I do not understand is why the EPG data is kept in memory (a lot of resources wasted) rather than on file, so there would be a more streamlined management and there would not need to populate the EPG every time.

The cron job is to refresh nightly to keep the EPG alive 5 days out (or whatever the duration is) but I see what you mean. What you describe will need to be fixed or the solution wont be workable at all.

Didnt sattommy say that that issue was not present in the last firmware before this one?

I any case I think it could be easily fixed by Opensat at least while the box is on. All they would need to do is overwrite the existing entries with entries from the satellite trasnponder instead of erasing all the entries and then adding the transponder entries. If they dont erase then it should work fine in memory as long as the box is powered on.

Then we could add a script to populate on bootup and cron nightly.

At least this would work fine until the EPG cache could be moved to disk.

Leandro or FatGiant - if you are reading please do this. We are so close to a working EPG and the box has much improved in the latest firmware. This could be a big step for the AZBox.

What do You think of this modify?


if(epg_count>0)
{
if (EpgList[epg_count-1].duration==0)
{
EpgList[epg_count-1].duration = (EpgList[epg_count].start_time-EpgList[epg_count-1].start_time);
}
}



Maybe is better if You check "epg_count" no more 256 events because EpgList is for 256 events.
There are almost 50 events every day, if we process 6 days the program crash.


struct eit_info_st EpgList[256];


PS:Thanks to Limak for sharing his sources.

I took out that array because it was having trouble. Furthermore you should look to the next event instead of the event before.

I will send you my code today or tommorow. Then you can see if you can implement. I am not that good in programming

Need to wait till opensat implements the saving of the epg data after standby anyways :(.

Cheers,

Tommy

Would the plugin collect the data from
http://tvlistings.zap2it.com/tvlistings/ZCGrid.do?aid=zap2it

At least some info to see if it can be used/adapted for the american guide.
Anyone?

Or I'm getting the wrong idea about what the plugin can do?

[limak]

Changelog:
1. satelite position parameter insted of Azbox network_id (ex. use 130 for 13E(HOTBIRD) and -1190 for 119W(ECHOSTAR 7))
2. proper reading of time zone in "start=" entry (ex. start="20100215005100 +0100")
3. new optional parameter globalGMTOffset fot XMLTV file without proper time zone set

http://www.mediafire.com/file/fidntjmgnyd/EpgWriter-0.2.tgz
EpgWriter works only with one xmltv file per channel, you need separate XMLTV files for different channels and proper script to populate Epg data more than once.

a few more for the list

also added wakeup.sh to /DISK2/etc

so epg is populated on startup

#!/bin/sh
#
# epgdownload autostart script

cd /PLUGINS/EpgGrabber/
./grabber.sh &
exit

[kebien]

So,apprently it gets epg from 119 sat,but the data is decompressed using hoffman tables.
Is this plugin decompressing epg data from 119 sat ?
Don't let me annoy you,just want some confirmation to start trying to collaborate with the american sats.
Is it getting epg data and decompressing it for sat 119?

Pretty much every channel on sly


Adi

PS, am trying to use with rt xmltv, do i need to use there channel names as Channel ID??

[limak]

@kebien:
sorry this is only example of using paremeters, you still need xmltv data for channels.
I'm working on next version of EpgWriter that proces one big xmtv file and write data for channels readed from channel.txt file but you still need xmltv data source from web or parse html tv guide some how.

after copying to Plugins via ftp set grabber.sh file and epgwriter to 755 .

telnet to folder and run ./grabber.sh.

that will run it.

now to setup the download .txt file you need the uk file unhashed to allow download, then the chennels.txt requires setting up for uk channels you have todo this manually at the moment. heres a starter.

Thanks for clearing it up
So,in a sense,that link I posted to zap2it should be the one to get the data from,then.

[psham]

This is driving me mad..
i downloaded both EpgGrabber and EpgWriter, unziped both files and ftp'd them across to PLUGINS folder. 755 both
Now tried to telnet to EpgWriter folder but getting no such file or directory.
Can anyone post a simple step by step for setting this up..
I am new to telnet but can pick up easily if shown once..
Regards
Peter

Is there example of grabber.sh?

[happyhammer]

Is there example of grabber.sh?

post #53 from the author, sattommy

[limak]

For example:


#!/bin/sh
#
#EpgWriter script file
wget http://www.xmltvepg.be/rytecxmltvpoland.gz
gzip -x rytecxmltvpoland.gz
epgwriter rytecxmltvpoland channel.txt > log
rm rytecxmltvpoland

this is for polish channel, check Rytec.be for other countries tv guide and change file names, you need to edit channel.txt to your needs
Big thanks goes to Rytec.be for hosting this data
Edit:
I noticed that rytecxmltvpoland uses ISO-8859-2 characterset but AzBox needs UTF8, so for polish channels we need to convert beffore use epgwriter


iconv --from-code=ISO-8859-2 --to-code=UTF-8 rytecxmltvpoland >rytecxmltvpolandutf8
mv rytecxmltvpolandutf8 rytecxmltvpoland

[happyhammer]

This is driving me mad..
i downloaded both EpgGrabber and EpgWriter, unziped both files and ftp'd them across to PLUGINS folder. 755 both
Now tried to telnet to EpgWriter folder but getting no such file or directory.
Can anyone post a simple step by step for setting this up..
I am new to telnet but can pick up easily if shown once..
Regards
Peter

EPG grarabber includes EPG writer v0.1
i recommend you use WinSCP for file transfer and modifying files.
Use Putty for telnet.
use WINSCP to change file attributes to 755 and modify your channels.txt files etc..

telnet to the box. you will be in root dir.

command "pwd"will tell you where you are. change to your EPGgrabber directory.

type ./grabber.sh



just replace the epgwriter file with the later versions, either 0.2 or 0.3, in the epggrabber folder


EDIT: actually ver 0.3 did not work for me so went back to ver 0.2 ( using EPGGrabber)

you was write it can handle timezone in start element. But can it handle it as well in stop element?
If i have xmltv file with both stop and start element how handle it?
Also how to use the new parameter for global time offset

[limak]

EpgWriter 0.2 and 0.3 can handle stop and start with correct timezone set
<programme start="20100216000000 +0100" stop="20100216060000 +0100" channel="TCM.pl">

but if you have xmltv file without time zone set

<programme start="20100216000000" stop="20100216060000" channel="TCM.pl">

you can use optional globalGMTOffset[in minutes with sign] as third parameter with epgwriter if you know that you have different timeznoe in your location than xmltv file


./epgwriter xmltv channel.txt 60

Probably you have emply lines at start or at the end of channel.txt,
have the same problem for an hour before discover the problem

yes, thats was it.

Am now playing around with Brytles XMLTV so i can just select the channels i want in the epg file. saves the writer having to process/skip all channels.
Certainly the epgwriter seems to work, but i've no access to the tv just to see if the screen was populated correctly.

here some test channels if someone else want to try

no, it has five files. try using winrar to extract.

in any case, with respects to sattommy, the latest version of epgwriter means the epg grabber scripts are no longer needed.

see my ealier post of grabbing the epg after telnetting to the azbox.

all you need to do is make a folder in the azbox and put epgwriter in it and then make/modify a text file with the channels you want.

[psham]

Will i call the folder EpgWriter or what , and Create folder in root or in PLUGINS folder?
Thanks

Its not a windows zip file. You need to use gunzip or something like that

[slegs]

I only have two files a readme.txt and epgwriter.

This is all still experimental and not ready for general use yet. If you are not sure of what you are doing I would suggest you wait till its packaged up.

[happyhammer]

I only have two files a readme.txt and epgwriter.

the epg writer compressed file is just two files.

the epg grabber compressed file is five files.


use winrar to extract them on yer pc.

put them in any folder on the azbox you want, it dont matter.

actually, it didnt work on this xml file, all the times were like this

Looks like buffer for event Details is too small, easy to fix.
Any other suggestions after testing before I release ver 0.4 ?

EpgWriter ver 0.4 by limak

Changelog:
buffers size changed
better handling xmltv files without "stop=" argument (duration based on next entry start)

http://www.mediafire.com/file/mzmkwykkzlg/EpgWriter-0.4.tgz

[pr2]

Hello,

Many thanks to Limak and Sattomy for the job performed on this subject.
I am now playing with it but there I have a small problem.

I am living in Belgium so my Azbox is set to GMT+1 and the time is right. At the momen Daylight saving is off.

I use the french satellite CSAT xml (rytecxmltvcsat.gz)

When I look in the file and I extract an event for example the details for the TF1: TV news event:



<programme start="20100217200000 +0100" stop="20100217204500 +0100" channel="I1.751118.microsoft.com">
<title lang="fr">Journal</title>
<desc lang="fr">Bulletin d'informations présenté par Laurence Ferrari.</desc>


In the XML file the start time is correct:
2010/02/17 20:00:00

So yes the program indees start at 20H00 (8 pm) and end at 20H45. (2010/02/17 20:45:00)

But with epgwriter 0.2 the event is written at 21H00 until 21H45.

I think that the mention +0100 in the XML means that the start time is expressed in the GMT+1 timezone format.

So all my EPG is fullfilled with events but with +1 Hour.

I don't know where the problem is, should EpgWriter managed the localtime setting in order to write it at the right time in the EPG Memory.
If so please take care in you development of the Daylight saving because then we will be in GMT+2.

Any help welcome to have the XML file written at the right time with epgwriter.

Edit:

By looking into /DISK2/selene.conf you can find the following parameters that will allow you to know in which timezone the Epgwriter is used:



[system]
timezonegap=3600
time_daylight_saving_time=0



Regards,

Pr2

P.S.: I already escalate the request to Opensat to have the EPG in an external file rather than stored in memory.

[SAUS04]

Is someone going to post a full channel.txt file 45e-30w and download.txt file so peeps like me can just install and run the plugin and go :P

looks like epg is going somewhere but i dont have the time to do channel ids etc. even full sly uk and freesat epg will do me anyone please :P:respect-056:

[pr2]

Hello,

An improvement possible is to skip event in the past.
I saw that with the current way of working grabber.sh and epgwriter event in the past are also written in the Azbox memory, this is useless.

I also stored the tmp files in the /DATA/hdb1 and I don't delete then, so when it will be working fine for me it will be possible to rerun faster the process based on the existing files (since Azbox lose the EPG today). Especially if old events are skipped by epgwriter.

Regards,

Pr2

Hello,

EpgWriter 0.4 does not support to have comment lines at the beginning of channels.txt file.
I have 2 comments line starting with # this generate a error about position 0 not found.
I delete the two comment lines and it is now running.

same here! not handle timezone correct. i am with GMT+2 and in my epg the data is 2 hours forward not matter in xmltv file there is +0200

[limak]

for quick workaround you can use globalGMTOffset parameter -120
I fix yours problem and release next version soon

EpgWriter ver 0.4 by limak

Changelog:
buffers size changed
better handling xmltv files without "stop=" argument (duration based on next entry start)

http://www.mediafire.com/file/mzmkwykkzlg/EpgWriter-0.4.tgz

yes, thats fixed the reading of Brytles xmlgui files. great job.

noticed a couple of small things, may be the box and not your program.

programmes like "denis & gnasher" will display denis &amp;gnasher..
programmes with name including..whats's... will display what&apos;s


Just for others info, i will use xmltvgui to generate the epg xml file for just the chnnels i select and store it on the shared drive that the azbox has access to. i'll use windows task scheduler to do that. then all i need is a cron job to run epgwriter.

[limak]

Your problem is related to codepage of xmltv file, AzBox use UTF8, look at my previous posts to find iconv command and change it to your needs

Who knows?

Hello,

Do you know that it is possible to create a /DISK2/etc/wakeup.sh and /DISK2/etc/standby.sh script.

So indeed with such script you can write a file flag somewhere and check it.

Yes very good plugin!
Too bad that firmware is buggy on EPG!
I import my EPG data via plugin and after few switching channels and EPG gone. When i change the menu to any other than TV EPG gone!
Until they fix that EPG and EPG plugins is almost not useful!

[dennisl]

What Fw do you use DimitarCC? I use 0.9.4295 BUT EPG is useless with any fw higher than this

Yes i use 0.9.4466. Really useless EPG!!!
0.9.4295 is good but there is no improuvments for MKV files and srt subtitles that are introduced in new versions of the fw!
But maybe i have to downgrade!

How did you import EPG data via plugin..

I've used grabber files, replaced epgWriter0.1 with epgwriter0.5, edited channel.text and download.text, placed all in plugins folder on azbox. chmod all to 755.

telnet to EpgGrabber folder, did ./grabber.sh
Telnet looked like it was downloading data,took 10 mins or so.. sais it was finished, so it typed exit..

Went to azbox to see if EPG data present but it wasn't..
Is there something i'm missing..?

I am using EPGGrabber with not replace the EPGWriter. Version 0.1 works well with my XMLTV files and import everything correct! I didnt tested yet EPGWriter 0.5!

P.S. But i use FW 0.9.4466

[psham]

using 9.4466 myself...
After you do ./grabber.sh command you don't do anything else? EPGdata should be on AZbox??

Gona try EpgGrabber without swapping Epgwriter..

look in the log file.


if you have any extra lines or the headers in the channels list it will not work.

use a linux editor vi or windows ultraedit to edit your txt file.

Hello,

You need to modify grabber.sh because now it is useless to split the XML file into a per channel XML subfiles. This consume a lot of time to generate the splitted files.

Simply use epgwriter 0.5 which works, really fine, even with a big XML file with all the channels in it.

You need to create the index file according to which XML file you use and then use.
Index file should have the following structure:
#XML-Channel-ID #Position Orbi #NID #TID #FREQ #SID #Pola H=0 V=1 #Channel_Name

XML-Channel-ID refers to the source XML that you will use, each files uses its own Channel-ID.

Postion Orbi is 130 for Hotbird 13° East, use - for West satellites.

You will find the NID TID FREQ SID Pola with MAZ2.3 simply open your channel list and have a look at the details of the channel.

OK..,
I am now using epgwriter 0.5

Unzipped and got 2 files in EpgWriter folder.. epgwriter and readme.txt, i then added a channel.txt and download.txt to this folder.

Ftp'd the EpgWriter folder ( which now has 4 files in it) to PLUGINS folder in azbox.
chmod all files to 755..

Do i now add grabber.sh or what do i do to get epgwriter to fetch epg data..?
Thanks

[DimitarCC]

i was try FW 0.9.4295 today......
well at least it keeps EPG when switching menus.
BUT i was upload my 4 days EPG data and after 3 hours working......EPG is GONE again!
Well folks dont waste time for trying plugins to work since the stupid FW does not work at all (EPG part).

[slegs]

This is still a work in progress folks so you shouldnt assume its cracked yet. In reality we need Opensat to move the EPG data to a sticky file based setup instead of memory for this to be useful.

There is lots of progress here though thanks to the good work of sattommy, limak etc

[SAUS04]

I completely agree with Slegs. Thanks Limak and Sattomy. good work guys keep it up... we just need opensat to give you the tools to deliver :respect-055:

Very good! But one small trouble......
my XMLTV files are written in Cyrillic. With version 0.3 of EpgWriter all was OK! But now it do not decode my files as UTF-8. It uses ANSI! So in the epg i cant read nothing!

[limak]

Are you sure, I don't change this part of code since ver 0.1 maybe your xmltv has different code page and you must use iconv tool to change it.
To test it use putty with UTF8 display settings and cat xmltv

[DimitarCC]

Are you sure, I don't change this part of code since ver 0.1 maybe your xmltv has different code page and you must use iconv tool to change it.
To test it use putty with UTF8 display settings and cat xmltv

when i open the xml file in internet explorer is show that file is UTF-8 and the text is displayed correct.
I use the same file with 0.3 version there is no problem.
What mean to test with putty? Please give me ore details! Thanks!

[DimitarCC]

I was just test with cat command in putty ...... text is OK! I can read it there! But when i import it with epgwriter 0.6 the log created from EPGWriter is ANSI NOT UTF-8 (before was UTF-8 and i was able to read inside) and in EPG inside the AZBox cant read!

[limak]

You must be sure that your terminal program use UTF-8 to display characters(I use PuTTy UTF-8 dispaly settings) and then if you have UTF-8 file you can use cat or more to display it and you should see correct characters. If not use iconv.

[DimitarCC]

Another thing that i found is if i run the EPGwriter 2 times one after another it adds the EPG 2 times and in box EPG it overlap events 2 times and when i pres right arrow instead to go to next even it stays again to same places becasue there are 2 events one ontop of the another.
Can you make if it see that at that time is event to not add it anymore?

[DimitarCC]

You must be sure that your terminal program use UTF-8 to display characters(I use PuTTy UTF-8 dispaly settings) and then if you have UTF-8 file you can use cat or more to display it and you should see correct characters. If not use iconv.

Yes i am sure! In translation options in Putty i set UTF-8 then i cat the xmltv file and YES i can see the correct characters. The problem is that inside EPG and in the log file they are not anymore UTF-8 and i cant read them there (both box EPG and log file)

p.s. log file encodding is ANSI! NOT UTF-8!

[DimitarCC]

if you want i can give you the xmltv file you to check it!

[limak]

I just test ver 0.6 with polish epg from rytec.be I use iconv to convert from ISO-8859-2 to UTF-8 because file on rytec.be is ISO-8859-2 and it writes correct charactes to azbox, log file looks Ok.
Then I download log file to windows and notepad display it correct, but without wraping(linux style).

I have no idea how to solve overlap problem, checking every event for sure slow epgwriter a lot, this is not an option, maybe someone have an idea, source are public feel free to change it

yes i agree wth yopu that will slow down everything......
The problem is that FW is very unstable and often clear EPG.
So i was thinking about constant update every 3 hours but that will make overlapping big problem!
Anyway i will check the code...... But i am not so good at linux programming

For / maybe you need to use the symbol code for that char.

@limak
I have tried to get EPGWriter 0.7 to run with the nordic channels dowloading the xml file from rytec. It seems to be another format of this xml files then the format for e.g dplus xml files. Is there anyway to get this working with your EPGWriter? Is there a different setup in the channel.txt file or?

[limak]

I don't think that azbox can handle 71000 epg events from rytec.be, maybe in next version I will try to add some size limitations of epg data in meanwhile try to cut xmltv file for smaller parts (use /tmp directory or hdd) and check if it works for you

something got broke in 0.7 version.

Just testing with a small ,one channel xml file using Birtles xmltvgui, 0.6 will populate, 0.7 wont.

[pr2]

Hello,

In my humble opinion it is a mistake to mix the download part of the XMLTV file into epgwriter.

epgwriter must be keep for what it is a program that write the XMLTV data into the Azbox memory.

Download can be done externally easily (wget) and download needs to be performed only once a day and not each time we launch epgwriter.

Why because now I use another repository than Rytec and the file is in format .zip and not .gz qo I need to use unzip and not gunzip to unzip it.
May be another repository will use another format, so it will be a never ending story to support all repository with all encryption methods.

Moreover it is useless to download each time the XMLTV file, I download it once a day on a server (NSLU2) and I copy the uncompressed file to my Azboxes HDD and use epgwriter to write the epg (Or I can work the other way; access directly the XMLTV file from the Azbox to the NSLU2).


I would prefer a parameter that will limit the writing in time, for example I download a 7 days EPG but due to the current Azbox EPG crash I would like to write only the next 24H (or 48H EPG) and not the 7 days EPG to try to keep the memory usage as low as possible and avoid the EPG crash.

I would then prefer to have another project dedicated just to download the file and keep epgwriter has a separated solution.
Moreover what if the XML files needs to be passed into iconv?

This is just my personal opinion.

I agree with this...being able to limit how far out you write to the EPG would be very useful as you could balance this with how often you run the process. This should be limited in the EPG writing not in the XML file as it is not practical to view and edit an XML file to limit the data written.

A 7 day EPG or even a 3 day EPG just contains too much data for the current AZBox memory based setup. Until they move it to a file based stucture the EPG writing needs to be variable and smaller. 24hrs is plenty for me and I imagine most people for their needs.

I also agree that download and epgwriter should be separate. You could download once a day but write to the EPG a number of times to keep to a 24h ahead view

e.g.

1. Download at 1 am
2. Apply 24h EPG at 1 am
3. Apply 24h EPG at 9 am
4. Apply 24h EPG at 5 pm
5. Download at 1 am
6. Apply 24h EPG at 1 am
etc

Ideally what we need here is a wrap around the great work done so far with a plugin that will

1. Install epgwriter and the scripts needed
2. Specify the locations of the XML file to be downloaded from GUI to config
3. Schedule the download from GUI to config
4. Specify the length of EPG view to be written (24h etc) from GUI to config
5. Specify the intervals for writing the EPG from GUI
6. Schedule the process to write the EPG based on intervals


I would love to be able to do this but my skills are limited. Is there anyone who can help? Limak and sattommy have done great work so far - thanks guys.

Duh! I should have given the link to the home page of the project instead - http://azopen.sourceforge.net/.

Note that Rytec has not updated the sources file since March 5th, so the script should be called as:

I've updated the code, and now version 0.3 can handle over 50000 events. Rytec still haven't updated the sources list, so run it initially as:

./azepgmgr.sh 20100305

The changes are:
* It'll load 5 days of events
* It'll catch segmentation and interrupt (CTRL-C) signals and clean up correctly.
* It'll target the currently selected set of channels, , i.e. All, Genre, Favourites, etc.
* Bug fixes

wget hxxp://www.xmltvepg.be/rytecxmltvuk.gz gzip -d rytecxmltvuk.gz remove the xxx's

add the attached XML file and then run runazepg.sh

That appears to work.

ensure no strange characters appear at the end of the xml file.

[Smudger]

This is getting very frustrating..
used ./azepgmgr.sh 20100305 and is now downloading
Then it Failed to parse and box rebooted..

the parse problem is caused by the null charaters at the end of the channels file. edit the xml and delete the null characters.

then rerun.

[psham]

when you say channels file do you mean azepgmgr.conf file? and what are null characters?

[arcibald]

when you say channels file do you mean azepgmgr.conf file? and what are null characters?

No it's ... rytec.channels.xml, at the end of file after </channels> there are four 00 00 00 00 (Null Char) ... to delete ...

Cheers

[psham]

Right.. giving up on this.. just won't work whatever i do.. Cheers for help..

[Smudger]

My epg is two hours out.

OK sorted it was running prior to time being set at startup.

[Smudger]

New version available 0.4 which fixes the GMT .
History:
========
0.4 - 2010-03-15
Corrected the GMT offset: values are now subtracted instead of being
incorrectly added.
Hard-coded the date of 2010-03-05 for the sources file since rytec
has not updated it recently.


Thanks to bpmurray

If you had problems in the past worth another try.
Looks like Parse problem also fixed.

I also enabled
rm -f $RYT_SOURCES* $RYT_CHANNELS* rytecxmltv*
in the script which deletes files therewise you get prompts.

[happyhammer]

Thanks for this, its by far the most reliable for Sky UK.

i'm using the following in a shell which i will use as a start up script, ie S40epg.sh. just need to work on getting a cron to do it each night.

You have to have the file rytec.channels.xml in the same directory. I removed a lot of them to reduce time, just leave your favourites. takes about 5 min for 3700 events. I originally put the files in the /bin directory but noticed they were removed on re-boot so now i'm putting them in the /Download directory.

using just the wget and runazepg commands , means that the 1 mg ryrtecuk downloaded file is not unzipped to 9mb.


#!/bin/sh
#

sleep 10
cd /Download/bin
wget http://www.xmltvepg.be/rytecxmltvuk.gz gzip -d rytecxmltvuk.gz
./runazepg.sh
rm rytecxmltvuk.gz

[tx0]

cant get it working. where I'm wrong?

at the end of the channels xml file the file contains 4 null characters delete these then only run the runazepg.sh script.

it's the parse error theat it the problem. I've removed the code which downloads a new channels file in the azepgmr.sh

[psham]

What are you using to edit null characters at the end of the channels xml file , i'm using MaZ and i don't see 4 null characters at the end of the file to delete...?

[Smudger]

Notepad ++
free software.

hxxp://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/uk/site.htm

remove the xx

[GalwaySat]

What are you using to edit null characters at the end of the channels xml file , i'm using MaZ and i don't see 4 null characters at the end of the file to delete...?

I had same problem and used FTP in Axbox Control Center to find them. They showed up as 4 little box characters at the end.

[tx0]

what characters are you talking about?

AZBox[bin]$ tail -3 rytecxmltvuk

just made it. have to dl this file from here (hxxp://www.rytec.be/tools/rytec.channels.xml.gz)

Now I Have Sly EPG.. Thanks!!


BTW -- cant get what this program have common with massage.. LOL

[bpmurray]

Updates at the same address - it'll load over 50000 events now. I've also included some optimization by allowing the creation of an on-disk copy of the EIT data. Unfortunately, it's rather crude - gets to around 250MB for Sly. Also unfortunately, it has a bug that causes it to crash sometimes when reloading.

[valkhyr]

I'm testing azepgmgr (0.4 and 0.5), but I have 1 problem, EPG is 1 hour too early.
Epgwriter shows the correct time.
I am living in the Netherland and my Azbox is set to GMT+1 and the time is right. Daylight saving is off.

I use the dutch satellite Canal Digitaal xml (rytecxmltvbenl.gz)

/DISK2/selene.conf

Code:
[system]
timezonegap=3600
time_daylight_saving_time=0

example:

rytecxmltv.xml

<programme start="20100318233000 +0100" stop="20100319002000 +0100" channel="HistoryHD.be">
<title lang="nl">Ice Road Truckers</title>
</programme>

My azbox shows the time 22:30 - 23:20

[bpmurray]

I've updated the time calculation, so it should work now. Version 0.6 also has a speeded-up reload.

[robix]

./azepgmgr -c rytec.channels.xml -x rytecxmltvuk

can't load library 'libxml2.so.2'

any ideas.

how have u solved this?

thanx Robix

[Smudger]

Thanks to BPMURRAY

Question
where does the file epgdata.dat come from?


UK epg time is OK.

[valkhyr]

I've tested the 0.6 version, but now the epg one hour late.
Thanks for the quick response :respect-054:
