No, the spare time I was looking for has not appeared.

But if you want to do the grunt work, I'll add it to the server.

I need a text file with listings in the following format.

Code:

[Seven-Syd]
version=15
affiliation=Seven Network
city=Sydney
country=Australia
name=Seven Sydney
parser=Human
serverid=7200007
state=NS
urlparams_human=FTA


[Nine-Syd]
version=15
affiliation=Nine Network
city=Sydney
country=Australia
name=Nine Sydney
parser=Human
serverid=7200009
state=NS
urlparams_human=FTA

[Station title] I suggest just adding HD to the end of the station name eg [NineHD-Syd]
version=15 for all entries.
affiliation= enter the main network this channel is affiliated with
city= name of the City
country=Australia (for all)
name= again I suggest adding HD to the end of the station eg NineHD Sydney
parser=human (for all)
serverid= ok this one is a little complicated. 1st digit is alway 7, 2nd digit is the first digit of the post code, 3rd digit is a 0 for capital city or a 1 for regional areas, 4th & 5th digits leave as 0, 5th and 6th digits are the LCN that has been assigned to that HD channel.
state=two letter code for the state AC,NS,NT,QL,SA,TA,VI,WA
urlparams_human=FTA (for all)

As you can see it's a bit of a pain, but if you post it back here and some else confirms no errors, I'll load it up to the server. Remember all variable names are lower case, most variables are titlecase.

I leave for 2 weeks in Japan on Tues. If it's not posted by then, it will have to wait till I return.

Peter.
