Relook 400S and EPG

[spence]

I have read here that the PLI image will work for 200S's and then have the ability for OZ epg via internet.
Is there any image out there capable of EPG for the 400S?
Thanks,

There are 2 different approaches for the 200S. You can get the info from the satellite for f*xt*l with a plugin (weekepg), but it doesn't populate the normal epg, & you can't scan all programs like the provider box. Also, this plugin doesn't work with pli images.

The second approach uses oztivo_au which pulls the epg off an internet server. This is integrated into the normal pli epg, but the data isn't always accurate or complete.

So far there is nothing for the 400S. The developer of the weekepg plugin (MaxZ4) has made his code available, but we haven't had a codecutter put his hand up to integrate it into an image yet. One of the neumo team (deeptho) has it on his todo list, but he doesn't have access to sky (Oz uses the same system) and it isn't a priority for him. This link on will give you a bit more info.

I've not yet tried it, but this app appears to do this for the DGS 400s images.

You can use shepherd for the xmltv source, run that app in autorun mode. Xvfb and wine would achieve this headless on linux, unsure on xmltv apps for windows.
