I’ve noticed the France EPG is 24hrs behind reality! ‘Todays’ listing shows yesterday’s programs and ‘Tomorrows’ listing shows today’s programs. Is there anything that can be done to correct this?

Turkish epg has some problems i listed them below. (For http://epg.clientportal.link//turkish.xml.gz )

1) Some channels has different sources with same names so that i think they are not working.

For example:

<channel id="Kanal D HD TR">
<display-name lang="tr">Kanal D HD TR</display-name>
<url>http://www.digiturk.com.tr</url>

<channel id="KANAL D HD TR">
<display-name lang="tr">KANAL D HD TR</display-name>
<url>http://www.dsmart.com.tr</url>


These channels are in epg:

Kanal D HD TR
Beyaz TV TR
BEYAZ TV HD TR
Flash TV TR...

( i didnt check all i will and update when i have time)​



2) Also sporekrani.com not a relaible source for epg. it only shows live events not all programmes even sometimes nothing. Instead of sporekrani.com can be use digiturk or d-smart for their own channel. (bein sports channels digitürk)

Apologies for revisiting this France EPG issue. Your estiptvnet France EPG is totally correct from a data and date perspective, it's great. Unfortunately when I load it into GSE IPTV player, there is no link between the channels and the EPG. I have to view the EPG in its entirety to view it, not individually whilst viewing a channel. I think I have come to the conclusion as to the cause of the problem? I am loading my playlist as m3u with options, looking at the tvg-id within estiptvnet's EPG data, they don't match the channel IDs within the m3u loaded from http://clientportal.link:80/ Obviously I making a massive assumption that they should match, please correct me if I am wrong :)

So for example, let's take Canal+ Cinema FR......

My M3u contains the following:-
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="CanalPlusCinema.fr" tvg-name="Canal+ Cinéma FR" tvg-logo="http://picon.space/canalpluscinema.png" group-title="France",Canal+ Cinéma FR
http://clientportal.link:80/live/xxxx/yyyyyy/zzzz.ts

Your EPG FR_guide.xml file contains the following lines:-
<channel id="Canal+ Cinéma FR">
<display-name lang="fr">Canal+ Cinéma FR</display-name>
<url>http://www.merge-xmltv-utc</url>
</channel>

So the tvg-id and channel IDs don't match. Now does that matter? I don't know, but I do know that when viewing a channel within GSE IPTV I don't get any EPG data displayed.

If I then compare the above with say the broken EPG from http://epg.clientportal.link/france.xml.gz which contains the following lines:-

<channel id="CanalPlusCinema.fr">
<display-name lang="fr">CANAL+ CINEMA FR</display-name>
<icon src="http://epg.canal-plus.com/mycanal/img/CHN43FB/PNG/87X64/CHN43FB_198.PNG" />
<url>http://www.canalsat.fr</url>
</channel>

I then see the correct Channel ID value that matches the tvg-id within the M3u file and the EPG data displays whilst viewing a channel. Unfortunately the data within this XML is 24hours behind reality, which is a right pain!

@estiptvnet I appreciate the help you are providing here, but have I come to the right conclusion above? I don't suppose anybody knows who maintains the EPG data on http://epg.clientportal.link/ ?

Here's hoping :)

cheers

Hi,

yes i use in xml channel name instead of tvg-id. And for this i have couple of reasons.
First and most important is that not in all channels is tvg-id but all channels have name and if i use tvg-id then only channels wich have tvg-id will get EPG, i cant use in config for some channels tvg-id and for others name.
Second reason - when channel change in some reason, then usually stuff change name also but very often they forgeth change tvg-id. And with wrong tvg-id this channel have wrong guide.

So far all apps and softs can understand channel name in xml. This GSE is first, when users complains that GSE dont show EPG.

I do not have Mac, but i did fresh install in android tablet, inserted line and my EPG address - and in this tablet my EPG worked. I do not know why in some devices this is not working. The problem may be when in device already used line with tvg-id and after that GSE do not accept anything else or Mac soft is different then android soft.

I try test in Mac soon, but this testresult will not be a reason to change channel name > tvg-id.

Thanks for the pointer, on a hunch, I decided to delete all my sources within GSE and also cleared out all EPG data and started again. I reloaded the m3u, with options, then reloaded your EPG data URL and this time the EPG data was visible from the player!! So I guess this confirms that GSE is remembering if it used tvg-id's previously and doesn't switch over to channel IDs when it should!

Fantastic, thank you!
