Description

hi

i hava managed to crack all epg in polish (to get it to display polish signs). in poland we have 3 providers. n, cyfra+ ( i use it now) and cyfrowy polsat. n uses its own epg system and is transported in a file from transponder to properairity stb (throught encrypted transponder where vod also goes). cyfra + uses old and cracked system mediahighway. cyfowy polsat sends epg without any systems but in iso-8859-2.

i have tested it with different programs and transponders.
on transponders where nid is 113 and provider is polsat epg can be retrieved through
http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Tv_grab_dvb

on transponder where nid is 318 and provider is cyfra+ epg can be etrieved with
http://jrepetto.free.fr/ program download epg in epg.data vdr format.
the file is encoded in ansii. then i converted the file in html with epg2html.pl script from vdr (opened in notepad++ and succesfully converts to utf-8). under linux cli i couldn't convert the file to utf-8.

please correct me if i am wrong becouse not all is perfectly clear to me considdering epg dvb-s techniques.

maybe this will help other people as well.

Andreas can you include this in tvheadend source please ?

I would love to see OpenTV EPG support - I know VDR's EEGG plugin supports this and other EPG formats..

This will be coming, I have added UK centric stuff and have plans to add this in the future. I already have my own issue notes for this and will try to transition these to redmine shortly.

hi Adam, i didnt notice any new issues set up for this forgive me if i missed one! ;)

would be great to have mediahighway support. I am looking into getting a tntsat for french tv to go with freesat and would be great to have a proper epg.
