pyepggrab

Extension / replacement of the original XMLTV.

All grabbers are written following the XMLTV specifications and compatible with all XMLTV tools (tv_find_grabbers, tv_validate_*).

Grabbers found here can be used together with the grabbers found in the original XMLTV project, and any software uses the original XMLTV project can use these grabbers without any modification.

To avoid name conflicts, pyepggrab grabbers use the prefix tv_grab_pyepg_.

Installation

If the functionality of tv_find_grabbers is required the one in the original XMLTV project can be used until we provide an alternative. (On the Roadmap)

From package

pyepggrab is available on PyPi: https://pypi.org/project/pyepggrab/

Install it with your preferred package manager.

For example, with pip

pip install pyepggrab

or with pipx
