A web based interpeter and stalker portal emulator to integrate your Mag STB with Plex Live TV. Support for electronic program guide updates, interval refreshing and more.
You will need your Mag box DEVICE_ID, DEVICE_ID2 and SIGNATURE. These can be obtained by sniffing the network traffic between your set top box and the portal.
Most portals do not have an endpoint to retreive the electronic program guide for every channel at once, so each channel EPG is pulled individually. The data is cached to prevent rate limiting and reduce load on the portal server. Recommended cache expiration for the guide is thirty minutes. The Plex EPG is refreshed every twenty-four hours by default. To force a more frequent updates, specify the Plex API token, server address, DVR ID and refresh time in the environment variables.
