That mapping file will then be used for each new xmltv import. The options will be presented according to the closest matching name, if there are any. It'll give you an option to change the mappings that were automatically created in case the names aren't matching. If the answer is yes on the first question, no on the other, i might actually try and write a xmltv2 plugin that'll create a xml mapping file using the display-name in the tvguide.xml file that'll map the id to the channelid, f.e '' -> 2:TV 1000 and so forth (I'll keep the name from the channel search in the xml file also, for potential future use ). Swedish channels in this case, i'm using tv_grab_se_swedb. If it is, is there another plugin for xmltv that does this a better way ? Which means that the channels will have to be renamed to match the xmltv (tvguide.xml) name exactly before importing. If there's no such channel available, it'll create a new channel with no information about the channel, dvb-s in this case.Īll those channels will of course be unusable. The programs for Eurosport () is then mapped to the existing channel with the name 'Eurosport'. If i'm not mistaken, the way that the plugin works is that it takes maps the channels using their display-names.

I'm having some problems with the xmltv plugin.
