I am dealing with the epg data (try to convert them to json, try to find out what kind of information is available) and have found this site which provides epg data.(http://xmltv.se)
The information they provide are a little different from the xml data I get from the api.
I have attached two snippets - one from xmltv one from a Mediaserver api call. - both from the same event. Inspector Banks, 4.6.2017 in the night.
The main difference is: actors , writers (credits section) is more detail from xmltv and more text from Media Server. Additional the have
( "new": null, --> maybe an information if this event is first time on this channel) and "category": { "en": [ "series", "Crime" ] }, maybe same als <content>16</content>?
My Question; Is the raw information stream more like xmltv or do you both have different sources?
Background - when I try to filter the epg stream flat text is not as good as structured text.
Oh - I must rename the json file to json.txt because json was not allowed.
