Plex Guide Empty
Closed this issue · 7 comments
I made it through all the steps, added Xteve to Plex, but the guide is showing empty. I'm running an Ubuntu VM on Windows 10.
Let me see your xmltv.xml file and the variables you have set in your generatePlaylist.py file.
Hey-
I'm learning python and Linux as I go with this project, so please let me know if I did anything dumb.
Here's the variables in the generatePlaylist.py script:
`cartoons = ["Rick and Morty", "Bob's Burgers", "South Park"]
dir = "/home/chris/shared/TV/" # Directory to grab shows from (make sure there is a "/" at the end!)
tvDirectory = "/home/chris/PlexTV/tvDIR/" # Directory where files will be generated (make sure there is a "/" at the end!)
commercialsDirectory = "" # Directory where commercials will be pulled from (make sure there is a "/" at the end!)
timezone = "EST" # Enter Timezone
showPoster = ""
channelName = ""
`
Your timezone is incorrect. The timezone should be in the format "+/- 0000" so for EST I use "-0400". Try that and refresh your guide inside Plex.
Hmmmm...still didn't work.
I have your scripts and Xteve running in the VM, plex itself is running on windows. Would that be creating an issue?
Are you able to add the dvr into live tv? You probably won't be able to because it's not on the same instance. Settings>TV&DVR>Add DVR
That I can do. I can insert the DVR, it'll see my one "Cartoons" Channel, I load in the XMLTV file the script created, and then it takes me to the normal DVR page for the guide, but says "The Guide is Empty". I've also tried setting it up using the XTEVE XMLTV address that shows at the top of the XTEVE page - same thing.
Did you ever get this working?
