tv_grab_na_tvmedia - Grab TV listings for North America.

tv_grab_na_tvmedia --help

tv_grab_na_tvmedia --configure [--config-file FILE]

tv_grab_na_tvmedia [--config-file FILE] [--days N] [--offset N] [--output FILE] [--quiet]

tv_grab_na_tvmedia --list-channels [--config-file FILE] [--output FILE] [--quiet]

Outputs TV listings in XMLTV format for stations available in North America. Data is provided by TVMedia Inc.

The grabber requires an _active_ subscription to XMLTVListings.com, as well as at least one lineup selected from your account page. Then you can run tv_grab_na_tvmedia --configure to set your API key and which lineup you want to receive.

Then running tv_grab_na_tvmedia with no arguments will get listings for all the channels you in your lineup, as you configured on XMLTVListings.com

--configure Prompt for which stations to download and write the configuration file.

--config-file FILE Set the name of the configuration file, the default is ~/.xmltv/tv_grab_na_tvmedia.conf. This is the file written by --configure and read when grabbing.

--output FILE When grabbing, write output to FILE rather than standard output.

--days N When grabbing, grab N days rather than 5.

--offset N Start grabbing at today + N days. Also supports negative offset for past listings.

--quiet Only print error-messages on STDERR.

--debug Provide more information on progress to stderr to help in debugging.

--list-channels Output a list of all channels that data is available for. The list is in xmltv-format.

--capabilities Show which capabilities the grabber supports. For more information, see <http://wiki.xmltv.org/index.php/XmltvCapabilities>

--version Show the version of the grabber.

--help Print a help message and exit.

If the grabber fails to download data, it will print an errormessage to STDERR and then exit with a status code of 1 to indicate that the data is missing.
