As I said, Channels does not offer its guide data outside of its application. If you need guide data from something other than Channels, two options are:
- Purchase a DVR subscription from SiliconDust for $35/yr. If you follow the link I provided earlier, it explains how to access the XMLTV data for integration with a different application.
- Purchase a subscription to Schedules Direct for $25/yr. To make use of the data they provide, you will need a use a separate application to access their service, such as the
tv_grab_âŚ
tools provided by the XMLTV Project or something like EPG123
Both of the above options source their guide data from Gracenote, which is the same data provider that Channels uses.
If neither of those options appeal to you, then sourcing the data is an exercise left up to the user.
