Some issues in Spanish EPG

Post by rodalopin »

After some testing with the spanish channels EPG would like to report some missing and some issues I've detected:


Missing EPG:
  • LaLigaTV Bar -
    They also have "LaLigaTV Bar 1" to 4, they are events only tho, but "LaLigaTV Bar" main channel broadcasts 24/7 with programs and so on. Schedule preview (and logo): http://www.movistarplus.es/canal/laligatvbar?id=LIGBAR - EPG Source Channel ID "LALIGATV BAR" (and the rest of the channels LALIGATVBAR# where # is 1 to 4)
  • Aragón TV Int
    Schedule preview (and logo): http://www.movistarplus.es/canal/aragon ... ?id=ARAGON - EPG Source Channel ID: "ARAGON TV INT"
  • Hit TV (Spanish)
    This channel is just music videos, doesn't really have an EPG as is always the "same program" but just in case you wanna have it in mind.
  • Movistar Deportes
    Movistar Deportes have "Movistar Deportes" and then another 7 channels numered from 1 to 7 (Movistar Deportes 1, Movistar Deportes 2...). Seems like "Movistar Deportes" has the EPG although the times are all wrong. The programs list seems to be correct but the times are all wrong. Also seems like "Movistar Deportes 1" is being taken as "Movistar Deportes" EPG's but they are different channels, they should be differenciated. The channels 1 to 7 are mostly events only, but at least the 3 first ones should have EPG as they are mains, they are always broadcasting and they have events most of the time as well as they are listed between the main channels in Movistar TV schedule: http://www.movistarplus.es/programacion-tv - EPG Source Channel ID: "M. DEPORTES#" (where # is the number. Bonus, channel 1 has HD channel "M. DEPORTES1HD" too)
  • Multideporte
    This channel is just a sports showcase, like a preview of what channels are showing what sports as a "homepage", doesn't really have an EPG as is always the "same program" but just in case you wanna have it in mind too. - EPG Source Channel ID: "MULTIDEPORTE"
  • Movistar Liga de campeones
    Same scenario as "Movistar Deportes", there is a "Movistar Liga de Campeones" and then "Movistar Liga de Campeones 1" to 8, again they are events only but main channel and 1 and 2 should have EPG as they broadcast 24/7 and they are listed as main channels from the provider http://www.movistarplus.es/programacion-tv. Also, the EPG from the main channel "Movistar Liga de Campeones" is not correct at the moment, nothing corresponds, neither shows and listings or times. - EPG Source Channel ID: "M.LCAMPEONES" for the main channel, "M.LCAMPEON#" (where # is the number for the other channels)
  • Canal Sur Andalucía
    Note this is not the same as "Canal Sur" or "Andalucía TV" that you already have, they are 3 different channels as you can observe from the official website of the TV mother company: https://www.canalsur.es/parrilla.html. Schedule preview (and logo): http://www.movistarplus.es/canal/canal- ... ia?id=ANTV - EPG Source Channel ID: "CANAL SUR A."

Bad EPG:
Most of them you can use the EPG (free and updated) from this source: https://github.com/jungla-team/sources-epg-crossepg (they have 3, 7, 15 and 30 days EPG) and I've tried to specify the channel ID for your convenience in the list avobe.

Thanks lads!!

Another one/question:
"Castilla-La Mancha Media" is the new official name, short name "CMM TV" and old known as "Castilla-La Mancha TV". I see that you have it as {"id": "3734", "title": "CMM TV"} I had the channel as "CMM TV" but the EPG is not showing. Does it have a different name for the EPG? (https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/CMM_TV - EPG Example: http://www.movistarplus.es/canal/castil ... ?id=CASMAN)

And the same I mentioned in my first post with "Movistar Deportes" and "Movistar Liga de Campeones", Movistar LaLiga has the main channel "Movistar LaLiga" and then "Movistar LaLiga 1" ... "Movistar LaLiga 10" as you can see in their official website: http://www.movistarplus.es/programacion-tv The main channel has programs 24/7, while the rest are Events Only, but it would be nice if we could have the EPG of all of them, or at least again the main channel and the 3 first ones again as you can see in the official website that they are bit more "main channels".

And about the first enquiry, do you have any ETA? and then I guess you will confirm the channel names, right? And also about that, you could have some section in the website with a channel name search to have our channels properly named to have the EPG. Kinda... you have first a dropdown with the country (country code) and then the input search that searchs with the possible names... and shows the "official name" for you to have the EPG and the logo (to confirm that is the channel that you are looking for). For example in my question of the example at the beginning of this post, I can search "castilla la mancha" or "cmm" and it will show me what is the official name of the channel I'm looking for with the logo to confirm that is not a different one... anyway, it's just an idea/suggestion for people that have that OCD that needs to have all of them perfectly labeled and EPG working! haha.

Thanks lads!! Awesome work!

Hi Eugene,

Thanks for that, saw that and works like a charm. The only thing is could you tell me the correct channel name for what I mentioned about CMM TV / Castilla-La Mancha Media TV? :
"Castilla-La Mancha Media" is the new official name, short name "CMM TV" and old known as "Castilla-La Mancha TV". I see that you have it as {"id": "3734", "title": "CMM TV"} I had the channel as "CMM TV" but the EPG is not showing. Does it have a different name for the EPG? (https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/CMM_TV - EPG Example: http://www.movistarplus.es/canal/castil ... ?id=CASMAN)
As I have it as CMM TV but doesn't seems to work :)
