BladeRunner Pro - Released

[kz]

stewie - ill have blade add darwin for you check back later this afternoon...

Before I start downloading, is the Darwin & NT regionals (Imparja, ABC, SBS, 7 Central) available with CST? I've noted a few requests in this thread.

I have been using EPGRunner, but found it annoying that 2 (SBS NT & 7 Central) of the 4 available channels have Qld (EST) times rather NT - CST.

Hi
I am using BRP and I am very happy with it.
Currently I am using TVXB TV grabber but I would like to use a different one that was created especially for Israel but the problem is that BRP do not convert the xml output of that grabber. In previous post on the same issue I was told that I should edit the following line:
<tv source-info-url="www.yes.co.il" source-data-url="http://tv2day.co.il/yesnew" generator-info-name="IsraelTvguideLite 0.1" generator-info-url="israeltvguide@gmail.com">
To:
<tv>

When I do that everything works but the author of the grabber is not willing to make this change for me .He clames that this is due to copyrights. I really don’t understand what he means by that but since he wrote the program I have to respect him.

My question is what is wrong with this line?

Further more when I edit the xml and replace the line with similar line that is created by TVXB:
<tv generator-info-name="TVxb/1.0074" generator-info-url="http://www.tvxb.com/">

It works as well

I am attaching the following files
egpdata.xml
Chanellinfo
Israel TV guide grabber

Any ideas will be very welcome

Thanks

if that line works for u then leave it like that...

qg will only process so much of the XML markup and its possible that the line in question from ur orignal doesnt meet XMLTV format hence dummy spit but on the other hand it might be qg that doesnt handle it.

anyway u could use the BRP pre process option to run a batch file or whatever just to modify that line in question automatically without manually doing so...

there is a problem with the zip file on the download link, is there anywhere else to download bladerunner pro?

Thank you Monster for your reply.
The solution you offered is one that I was thinking of but I was looking for a better one that will be helpful for the reset of the Israeli users and on the other hand after spending so many hours of trying to edit this line, it became a kind of obsession to understand what is the “curse” that was cast at this line.
I posted the same question an the greenbuton forum and I got this reply:

The problem is both the source-info-url and generator-info-url attributes contain invalid URLs. i.e. "www.yes.co.il" is only part of a URL, and "israeltvguide@xxxxx.com" is a mail address; not a URL.
If the <tv> element were to be changed to the following (for example) then it will load okay
<tv source-info-url="http://www.yes.co.il/" source-data-url="http://tv2day.co.il/yesnew" generator-info-name="IsraelTvguideLite 0.1" generator-info-url="http://israeltvguide.co.il/">
AND IT WORKED!!!

Many thanks!

there is a problem with the zip file on the download link, is there anywhere else to download bladerunner pro?

Ditto...website admins...can you fix this? The download link on http://www.xpmediacentre.com.au/brp is pointing to some Quickguide for Brisbane.zip file.

The correct download link is (for everyone else):
http://www.xpmediacentre.com.au/comm...p?do=file&id=4

thats because when mike updated the download section the ID also moved

i have corrected the DOCS to point to the main download area from there they can find BRP themselves

thanks for the info

Would have been nice to have Darwin, Northern Territory included.

Still having trouble regionalizing BRP, would it be possible to include Darwin, ALice Springs and some of the larger regional areas?

If you do not have time, is the code available?

I have followed the installation guide to a T and i am getting no results!

I just keep getting this error when trying to download epg:

and yes i have java script installed and it has the latest update.

I've been having problems with BladeRunner Pro ever since daylight savings started.

Began getting the 'woops couldn't find file' or something.

I just downloaded the latest version (30/12/05), and when installing, in the past it would run the config program to ask your region etc, now it doesn't.

How can I tell it I'm in Sydney and my timezone. Would really love to get this going again..
