Html internal graber module Missing

Cédric BY

Hi.

There is now 3 days i search on the web how to grab an xmltv.xml file in TvheadEnd on my Synology DS218+.
I found how and where to find the source and i've now a complete xmltv.xml file.
I've understand i've to "install" a tv grabber (tv_grab_file synology version i my case), and it works well manually:

I've made a "ln" link in the /usr/bin/ directory, change the permission (0777) the owner and group (root:root) and test it manually (all is all right: it print the content of the xmltv.xml).

But i can't see it in TvHeadEnd, even after a reboot: I've no "MODULE" choice in the INTERNAL GRABBER (EPG GRABBER) unther the "Cron Multi-line" area.
Someone could help me?

You need to also create a fake find_tv_grabbers script with the name and location to your grabber for it to show up. See "this"

Ok, I've seen there is something needed for "declare" the grabber.

So i've visited your link and I created a file named "tv_find_grabbers" located in /usr/bin/ with this inside:

#!/bin/sh

#set to the location of your 'tv_grab_file' script

my_grabber_script="/usr/bin/tv_grab_file"

echo ${my_grabber_script}|XMLTV File Import

I expeted to have the "Module:" appear with "XMLTV File Import" under the arrow.
But, no. So i've try to execute the tv_find_grabbers manualy, and i've got an error message "/volume1/video/XMLTV/tv_find_grabbers: line 4: XMLTV: command not found"

Then, i have modified it like this:

#!/bin/sh

#set to the location of your 'tv_grab_file' script

my_grabber_script="/usr/bin/tv_grab_file|XMLTV File Import"

echo ${my_grabber_script}

When i execute it manualy, i have:

/usr/bin/tv_grab_file|XMLTV File Import

I think it's all right , but after a CHMOD 0777 , CHOWN root:root , moved it in /usr/bin/ and TvHeadEnd restart, then nothing's better: Always no "Module" appear.

Let me be clear:
I don't say i have the "Module" menu with only "Disable" front of it and no grabber to choice.

I say i have not even the word "Module:" in the interface and no more the arrow for choicing the grabber (like you can see in the capture in my first post.

That's why there is something i don't understand
A little bit more help please.

I think you need to replace echo with printf

try:


#!/bin/sh
printf '/usr/bin/tv_grab_file|XMLTV File Import\n';
exit 0;
