Server Version#: 1.19.2.2737
I am using a EPG from https://epgguide.net/
Connecting Plex live tv with this EPG works, but I don’t see the season and episode number althought this is in the XML file.
Which XMLTV format does Plex needs to be able to see also season and episode number?
This topic post is before this one "Failed to parse data" after upgrade to 1.19.4.2935
The later post does not show any xmltv xml being returned - is it a different source?
That was a different source. As I know have the correct EPG guide I still don’t see season and episode number.
I see it in the XML file. What could be the problem?
XML file.
NL.xml.gz (2.4 MB)
Wrong fromat, season is missing I guess.
In my short time of using xmltv with Plex I saw that on-screen format with SXXEYY works as well as xmltv format or whatever that is called.
XML file is using the wrong episode-num system. A provider can use whatever format with the onscreen system, E17 or Episode 17 or Ep. 17 are all accepted, so useless to Plex and others…
Plex works ok with the xmltv_ns system standard.
The example below corresponds with S05 E19.
<episode-num system="xmltv_ns">4.18.</episode-num>
It also works with on-screen SXXEYY, doesn’t have to be xmltv_ns I guess. At least I recall that this is what I used to have (I now have also xmltv_ns). But season has to be present obviously.
Hi there! I have a similar problem…
In my case, I have a different problem, mas it’s similar. In the case I show bellow, no information regarding the episode is shown:
although the xml file indicates “S1E8”
Can someone explain why this is? Is it a bug? Thanks
The format is wrong
Xmltv_ns looks like that
<episode-num system="xmltv_ns">2.18.</episode-num>
And if I recall correctly xmltv_ns starts to count at 0 for both season and episode.
