add tv guide screen?

Postby jimgarrard on Tue Oct 17, 2006 10:21 pm

I would love to have a "tv guide" page on my setup. The only thing i have seen is the xmltv plugin. I have no tuner card i'm only using xlobby to change chanes wit IR. the goal is to view "whats on TV" on my touch screen without having to show my guide on the TV. Any suggestions?

maybe a website integrated in XL, or you can still use xmltv for this without a tunercard

Jim,

Take a look at this doc http://france.xlobby.com/xremoteus.htm It helped me when I played with XMLTV. I decided not to use it, cause I decided not to mess with a TV capture card for the time being. There are other things I want to get setup on XLobby first. If you have further questions, I'll bet badubo or c'est moi will be around to help.

Oh and if you can read/speak french, this is a good place to hang out http://www.xlobby-france.com/forums/. Or don't mind using BabelFish http://babelfish.altavista.com/

Have fun!
