Hi All
I have some bad news, I have decided that I’m going to stop supplying my version of the XMLTV files. There are mainly two reasons for this decision…. Firstly the hit ratio for downloading my files have dropped to a all time low and for me to maintain the files are just not worth [...]

DSTV Channel No’s Changed
Hi All
As you are probably aware, Multi-Choice (DSTV) changed the channel numbers again. So to be in line with them I changed the XMLTV-file to also reflect the new numbers. Now on to the bad news, because of change, importing the new files ( starting from 01-05-2008 ) could cause a bit of a problem. [...]

XMLTV Update
Hi All
DSTV was late in updating the program detail on their website, so I had to run another extraction so that all the program gaps could be filled. Furthermore the XMLTV-File is bigger than usual because I had to compensate for an error that was introduced on their website’s filtering mechanism.
