    Partial bodged guide data available

    Only the channels that the family really uses (and which I could get good guide data for); the process is extremely labour intensive and I don't have any time to make it better right now. But it's better than nothing I suppose.

    http://www.hintz.org/media/slices.tgz

    These are also up for the emulator, but I'm not sure if it will work; it only loaded Discovery for me and I don't have time to troubleshoot-gotta get out of bed in 5 hours and I'm not even in it yet. I did the others manually, they all load (and all checked out with slicedump) but some data isn't showing yet, dunno if it will or not. But some data is, and it makes a nice break from "to be announced". Going to sleep now. Goodnight Gracie.

    Any change of TV1,2 & 3 ;-)

    Hi,

    Nice work on those slices - any chance you'll make a TV1,2,& 3 slice while we wait for jaidev & tim?

    Maybe tonight... The problem is getting sufficient data for them. Yesterday I was only able to get about 2 days of data (and that data didn't want to make decent slices). I may try again later tonight once I get home, or try a different data source. It all depends on how beat I am (I'm sort of dragging today after staying up so late...). Figures this would happen on the first week in several months that I've had significant time restraints.

    i'll scrape saturn tonight so we can do a full slice (no descriptions from saturn tho) if u want to convert to a slice as i don't know how to do that.

    I could give it a go I suppose... I've been using the TivoCan parsexmlguide.pl script though, and I think Jaidev's using Warren's WKTivoGuide. But, if you can get me the same data you're giving Jaidev I can grab WKTG and give it a go. If I don't fall asleep first.

    mate... making a partial manual slice. full credit to ya. phew, i tried that b4

    ok here ya go...

    a 7 day saturn grab. Better than nothing.
    Hope you can figure out wtwriteguide

    ps the only prob with sky is their site is really really slow.
    I have tried implementing a couple of workarounds but they're not
    really working out too well. dunno... i'm not the only one having
    trouble with their site thats for sure.

    link is here as this site has a 39k max file size upload restriction.
