DESCRIPTION

Output TV listings in XMLTV format for many stations available in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland. The data comes from machine-readable files produced by the Radio Times website.

USAGE

First you must run tv_grab_uk_rt --configure to choose which stations you want to receive. Then running tv_grab_uk_rt with no arguments will get about a fortnight's listings for the stations you chose.

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

--gui OPTION Use this option to enable a graphical interface to be used. OPTION may be 'Tk', or left blank for the best available choice. Additional allowed values of OPTION are 'Term' for normal terminal output (default) and 'TermNoProgressBar' to disable the use of Term::ProgressBar.

--config-file FILE Set the name of the configuration file, the default is ~/.xmltv/tv_grab_uk_rt.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 of data instead of all available.

--offset N Start grabbing at today + N days.

--quiet Suppress all progress messages normally written to standard error.

--debug Provide detailed debugging messages to standard error.

--no-title-updates Disables processing of programme titles to remove non-title information and split titles into title/subtitle.

--list-channels Write output giving <channel> elements for every channel available, but no programmes.

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

--version Show the version of the grabber.

--help Print a help message and exit.

Note that tv_grab_uk_rt always downloads data for all days and then filters out the days specified with --days and --offset. It is therefore more efficient to omit --days and --offset and use all the returned data.
