DESCRIPTION
Grab TV listings for several channels available in Finland. The data comes from various
sources, e.g. www.telkku.com. The grabber relies on parsing HTML, so it might stop working
when the web page layout is changed.
You need to run "tv_grab_fi --configure" first to create the channel configuration for
your setup. Subsequently runs of "tv_grab_fi" will grab the latest data, process them and
produce XML data on the standard output.
COMMANDS
NONE Grab mode.
--capabilities
Show the capabilities this grabber supports. See also
<http://wiki.xmltv.org/index.php/XmltvCapabilities>.
--configure
Generate the configuration file by asking the users which channels to grab.
--description
Print the description for this grabber.
--help|-h|-?
Show this help page.
--list-channels
Fetch all available channels from the various sources and write them to the
standard output.
--version
Show the version of this grabber.
GENERIC OPTIONS
--cache FILE
File name to cache the fetched HTML data in. This speeds up subsequent runs using
the same data.
--gui [OPTION]
Enable the graphical user interface. If you don't specify OPTION then XMLTV will
automatically choose the best available GUI. Allowed values are:
Term
Terminal output with a progress bar
TermNoProgressBar
Terminal output without progress bar
Tk Tk-based GUI
--quiet Suppress any progress messages to the standard output.
CONFIGURE MODE OPTIONS
--config-file FILE
File name to write the configuration to.
Default is $HOME/.xmltv/tv_grab_fi.conf.
GRAB MODE OPTIONS
--config-file FILE
File name to read the configuration from.
Default is $HOME/.xmltv/tv_grab_fi.conf.
--days "N"
Grab "N" days of TV data.
Default is 14 days.
--no-randomize
Grab TV data in deterministic order, i.e. first fetch channel 1, days 1 to N, then
channel 2, and so on.
Default is to use a random access pattern. If you only grab TV data from one
source then the randomizing is a no-op.
--offset "N"
Grab TV data starting at "N" days in the future.
Default is 0, i.e. today.
--output FILE
Write the XML data to FILE instead of the standard output.
CONFIGURATION FILE SYNTAX
The configuration file is line oriented, each line can contain one command. Empty lines
and everything after the "#" comment character is ignored. Supported commands are:
channel ID NAME
Grab information for this channel. "ID" depends on the source, "NAME" is ignored
and forwarded as is to the XMLTV output file. This information can be
automatically generated using the grabber in the configuration mode.
series description NAME
If a programme title matches "NAME" then the first sentence of the description,
i.e. everything up to the first period ("."), question mark ("?") or exclamation
mark ("!"), is removed from the description and is used as the name of the
episode.
series title NAME
If a programme title contains a colon (":") then the grabber checks if the left-
hand side of the colon matches "NAME". If it does then the left-hand side is used
as programme title and the right-hand side as the name of the episode.
title map "FROM" 'TO'
If the programme title starts with the string "FROM" then replace this part with
the string "TO". The strings must be enclosed in single quotes ("'") or double
quotes ("""). The title mapping occurs before the "series" command processing.
title strip parental level
At the beginning of 2012 some programme descriptions started to include parental
levels at the end of the title, e.g. "(S)". With this command all parental levels
will be removed from the titles automatically. This removal occurs before the
title mapping.
