ARGUS TimeForTV Importer

[dlarge500]

I have a question about the use of this tool. I have installed this Importer and I have to enter my token and update my scan.

In Argus under the channel list I can now see more channels with a different name.For Example

RTL Television DE or
Sky Hits DE

why the additional channels are added? Must delete all Channels from the Channel Groups und Argus Scheduler and replace with these new Named Channels?

cheers dlarge500

RTL DE and so are Names from the xml file
Argus Import this GuideChannels and here are the difference between Channel and GuideChannel

Channel/ Service is from the Tuner
GuideChannel from Electronic Program Guide

I should add the following

I have windows server essentials 2012 installed
.net versions 3-4.5 fully installed
I have run the app with admin rights
I have tried with Firewall on and Off
I change app compatabilty to Win7 as a test

It seems to me the issue is with the name of the file.. can the XML file have backslashes in it? - Temp\TimeForTV 07\03\2013.xml

Either way, I cant edit this so cant test.. However, I just started writing my own app instead to take care of this whilst wait on a solution.
thanks for your help

Hi

Something goes wrong when it creates the file.
The filename your windows create is:
"TimeForTV 07\03\2013.xml"

Correct file path, should look like this
"TimeForTV 07-03-2013.xml"


Could you post your log file?

Ok, here is a test version
Please try it out, I have changed the way date is handled.

Download it, and replace the exe in
C:\Program Files\ARGUS TimeForTV Importer

btw, this version also have some new "serie optimize" features...
It will only look up series with english title
Use it on your own risk

Hey

ya that fixes one issue and allows the epg to download.. however optimise epg freezes the app.


also clicking test causes this - needs some error handling I guess

See the end of this message for details on invoking 
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

Forgot to tell,
DONT USE THE TEST BUTTON

Does the program work, if you only press run without optimizing?
If it does, then you can try the optimize serie function.

This is time consuming and the app will look like its frozen.
I can tell you that it takes about 2 hours for my file to lookup 7000 series.
So depending on how many series there is in you xml file it will take a longe time.
