Hello,
I'd like some help about entering the channels into
the database via the XML TV file.
After looking at the code of mythfilldatabase, I have
the impression that the following is imposed when
entering channels via mythfilldatabase and XML TV
files:
1. "xmltvid" need to be the same string as "callsign"
2. the "chanid" cannot be given in the file.
Is this real ? If so, I cannot use XML TV to create my
channels, esp. because I use "chanid" to set the order
of the channels, so I need to set this column.
So until now I have entered the channels via a SQL
file, containing lines like:
INSERT INTO channel
(chanid,name,callsign,channum,finetune,icon,xmltvid,sourceid)
VALUES(4,'Canal
+','Canal+',63,0,'/root/.mythtv/channels/canalplus.gif','Canal+France',1);
But this is not a perfect solution, as it brings some
other problems:
* the sourceid, as well as the path of the images, may
change on some installations,
* what if the structure of the table changes ?
So I'm wondering if there is a better way of setting
the channel ids.
Thanks,
Ben.
