Do not mess with the favorites. It is not up to a plugin to change channels or favorites. There is normally no sane reason for it. User usually don't like it if something changes their carefully constructed favorites setup. trust me

And please contact me directly via PM with problems while working the plugin.

OpenEPGtoDVBViewer.rar - 0.10MB

Thats the new file. You can enter your I.P address in manually.

And the reason for the Favourites is people do(me being one) want their favourites to reflect how Sky UK display the channels. There is the option in the plugin to not update the favourites. If you don't want people to update them then why have it in the COM Interface?

[varesino]

Is this version working only for SKY UK? Can I try it also for SKY IT?

[DJBlu]

http://www.borntosha...toDVBViewer.rar

please use this one.

I haven't fully tested Sky Italy but it is programmed for it so give it a go.

[varesino]

DJBLU thank you for your job,

I tested it with SKY IT, log follows, all seems OK but resulting EPG in DVBViewer is empty. (I'm not using favorites, don't know if it could be a problem)

Channel.xml and EPG.xml are created and filled with all the data (files are too big to upload in this board)

I'm available for additional test if you need more info.

Are you using Version 4.0 or higher?

[varesino]

Thank you for reply, now I'll try your new version, result will follows in few minutes.

[varesino]

This version seems not to finish correctly, latest message is exporting to dvbviewer but now it's more than 5 minutes that nothing happens (EPG in dvbviewer is empty)

I will be taking a look into 13e tommorow so I'll check it then I'll upload a copy then.

[varesino]

OK, no problem.

Good night.

[DJBlu]

It is now fixed

http://www.borntosha...toDVBViewer.rar

please right click and Save as.

This will now work for both Sky Italy and Sky UK.

[uglyned]

Hey DJBlu. Thanks for this but I guess I'm doing something wrong.

UK version , running from DVBViewer 4.0. Have the NetStrem plugin installed and working. Also have EPG Background audio tuned.

When I click 'Run update now' it gets to a status of 'Connecting to stream, searching for new data' and 'Searching network information' in the log but then just nothing. No status bar movement, no errors, nothing else in the log and nothing in the EPG. Have left it for 5-19 mins a few times but nothing happens at all.

Have you got ay idea why? I'm using XP.

Thanks!
