Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 
trying to record the 'Tour de France'
the TV schedule lists it as Live Cycling.

This is the sms title

You: Live Cycling.ITV4.11/07.15:00
------------------------------------------------
We couldn't find your programme. Use the format: Title. Channel. Date DD/MM. Time HH:MM. You must use the full stops. Or just the Title for a wider search.

Hi cardiff-blues,
sorry Ive been away for sometime so didnt get a chance to have a look. Some programme titles are unfortunately not found/dont work when sent to SKY. Ive faced this a couple of times too, the reason being
1. This is not an official sky application so the titles may not match :(.
2. The titles come from an external source that generates xmltv data which as you understand is not sky, and sometimes even their scripts can goof up a bit the information extracted.

but its only with some programme titles and Ive not noticed a pattern yet unfortunately. Perhaps too late but Ill try to check this if this is still available on the schedule.

Thanks for your hard work.

When the update actually comes with the translations?

Hi Dr.MZ,

apologize, I havent got the time to spend here due to a rough phase I am in at the moment, but hopefully Ill be back in action soon. :(

btw, as I said none of the translations worked, the QT linguist was crashing when I opened the files you guys sent me, I tried to figure out then but didnt find what the issue was, maybe the format .qph has some issues.

Let me know if I could send you the new format .ts , I will also double check it works, do you think you could send me back the translations again in that format.

It would take me ages if I do them all again, which was what I had attempted to do .

sorry again to all for the update being this late but I will be releasing it first thing when Im back to maemo development.

Hi ! Nice application but I'm living in Switzerland and we are here used to watch TV programs from our neighbours (France, Germany or Italy).
It would be nice to be able to enter in settings the url where to download the xmltv file. We could then use services that can provide this information for selected channels (like kazer.org, thnaks to him). Grimfa

Will have a look to see if I can provide that feature easily where a user can provide the url for xmltv.
The issue is sometimes these files are provided in different ways by different providers, for example some club all channels and all days together in a zip file, some provide 1 xmltv file for a week , some may provide 1 xmltv file per day etc.

How about I add this website you mentioned for swiss, something like an option ? this sounds like a quick patch.

cheers

nice app but all times are an hour out for uk region. any workaround for this? e.g showtime says show starts at 7am but in reality show starts at 8am.

@krk969: An imdb plugin like the one in tvbrowser would be
a nice feature for the future.

I checked a few channels like BBC1, sky movies comedy, comedy central, animal planet all seem to match the timings on showtime.
I remember fixing the UK region(v1.2-5) by taking into account the daylight savings since the data provider used to change this.

can you give me an example of a channel that has listings an hour out ?

Blues

honestly had this in mind earlier, but I learnt there were some apps doing this already and nobody had asked for the feature, now that you have , will try to put it in if it wont take much time. :)

btw, from the top of my head, a link to imdb for the movie/series can be provided in the details or description section.
That should be quick if thats what you meant.

cheers

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 
just FYI:
some users have reported some russian channels seemed to have their text not printed correctly.
Im aware and I shall try to check if there is any encoding issue before I release another version.

Ah.. I was using version 1.2-3 , it's working fine with the latest version. Thanks a lot. great app. Actually while I have your ear, one thing I wouldn't mind being different is if the default was opening up at the start of your favourites instead of at the end. As it is now you have to press the back button to scroll through your channels which feels all psychologically wrong!

Wondered if it were possible to control sky+ in Ireland through this app?
Used to have an Android app to do this and really miss it!

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 
I've been using this now for nearly a year. Up until last week it was working but now there's no data available. I've re-installed, rebooted and cleared the cache but no joy. Anyone else having the same problem?

king Ralphred 2011-05-29 19:40

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 
oh yeah, can't remember if I installed hen and power kernal before or after it stopped working but I had them working together before.

krk969 2011-05-29 20:13

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 
seems like the weblinks for the data sources are temporarily down.
I know it was working a couple of weeks ago.

If this does not begin to work soon, we can switch to some other data source , i will release an update if it does not resolve itself.

* EDIT *
I am not sure if all regions are down though. I tried UK and DE only.

Thanks for getting it running again. Just a heads up really, itv1 is still out of action. I think wasn't working before everything went off but can't be sure

Re: [ANNOUNCE] ....its SHOWTIME !
 
Please could you explain to me how to use the remote record facility? I had the official SKY app on android and that required a user name and password to perform the remote record, on this, it seems to want to send a text message. Who does the text go to and how does it make my sky+ record? I am in Ireland BTW

There is a free xmltv feed for India too at http://www.whatsonindia.com. To download the xmltv file one has to create an account and enable the feed in the profile (under TV preferences tab). After that a direct link is available something like this

The service needs to be re-enabled every 30 days. Perhaps you can add this to your application.
