sky uk - is it possible for auto tuning/channel grouping with tvheadend?

I am using mediaportal with the EPG grabber plugin, this automatically adds new channels, removes dead ones and updates tuning paramaters as well as putting...

EPG collector can also do this - and source code is on their site?

http://sourceforge.net/projects/epgcollector/files/V4.2/

Hope that someone can get this to work - I am happy to test, open ports and share logs etc but wouldnt know where to start in the coding!

Hi guys sorry but I've been busy with University stuff and not had any spare time lately. after having a hour spare I've looked into this and can see that this info is not going to be scrapped from the Bouquet which would've been the best option. Also in the opentv EPG code in TVheadend there is mention of genre but I cannot see any list connected to this and cannot confirm it is usable. Since this variable (if it is the genre of the channel) is only in the opentv OTA then it will not be useful for any other provider and I'm looking at the bigger picture as I use a motorised dish. when I get more time I will come back to this and see if there is any alternative way to do this.

Have been playing with enigma2 boxes and the autoboquets is great.

As this is essentially a script can anyone that understands the code for tvheadend look at this and advise if this should be possible to integrate somehow - am happy to test or open my box to someone to test this out.

Thanks

Hi, just wondered if there is any update to this subject?

I setup my Sky UK system about 1 year ago now, and have not refreshed anything. I'm sure lots of channels have changed, moved, removed, etc. So my question is, what do I need to do to 'refresh' to the current sky channel data, etc? Should I remove everything and tart again? What is the current preferred method please?

Kind regards.
