Howdy,

Sorry if this is off topic or the wrong forum. But I'm looking for an offline viewer - for a PC - that works with the OzTivo XML feed. Ideally one that uses the Category value and can save searches.

"Offline" means I download the data then use it on the laptop etc, when I'm disconnected from the net. Platform = Windows XP.

I've looked at ZGuideTV (http://zguidetv.codeplex.com/)but it crashes (even before the data config stage). I'm working with the developers

TVG For Windows (http://tvguide.sourceforge.net/index.shtml). Seems to want to use it's own grabber. Can't find a way to say "just use this xml file that I'll provide"

Happy to have it use a local MySQL DB if that helps performance.

Thanks

Sorry, I'm not aware of anyone using our XML data in this way.

There is a number of available tools to view XMLTV offline.
I've used Maxemum TV-Guide (http://mtvg.sourceforge.net/) and similar. They are kind of slow when it comes to XMLTV files of large size.

The other solution could be to covert xml -> html with tools listed here (http://ericandchar.com/xsltvgrid/).

Another possibly useful link (http://wiki.xmltv.org/index.php/XmltvRelatedProjects).
