Two requests

Please post all that you want from a guide here. Nothing guaranteed, but we'll certainly do our best if you make a good case for it.

Two requests

Can we download the guide data from shepherd? and use it for FTA?
http://svn.whuffy.com/index.cgi

taken from there site
Shepherd knows enough about the capabilities of each grabber in order to make intelligent judgments about which is most appropriate for any given situation, maximizing data quality while minimizing bandwidth usage. It analyses the XML output from each grabber to determine whether any further grabbers are required to obtain a full dataset of the required channels. It then employs postprocessor components to further refine the data: the imdb_augment_data postprocessor adds movie information from IMDb.com, tvdb_augment_data adds series/episode details from TheTVDB.com, flag_aus_hdtv marks shows that are available in High Definition, and more.

When switching between data sources, Shepherd's reconciler keeps show names consistent. For example, if you're used to recording a programme called "House" but a different data source names it "House, M.D.", Shepherd remembers the original name and automatically substitutes it.
Shepherd is designed to be future proof, never requiring manual intervention once installed and configured. It will automatically update itself with fixes, enhancements, and additional grabbers and postprocessors as they become available.


I would also like the following channel added to the guide we currently download, Its foxtel and channel 517 its National Geographic Adventure.

You can use XMLTV data from any source and "feed" it to the Guide Service Proxy.
