I have been using Schedules Direct for a couple years now. The XML form will obviously contain all of the essential data, but perhaps it lacks ancillary information (maybe such things as casts lists, date of first broadcast, age rating, and so on since I have never used Schedules Direct, this is only guesswork). I have seen comments to the effect that the XML form is not quite as good as the JSON form.

This means that the plugin is not usable by people outside the USA and Canada, as Schedules Direct provide the XML form only for the USA and Canada (they provide the JSON form for everywhere else). There is none of this messing round with multiple tools to get it to work.Īs I said before, the only catch is that you need to use the XML form of the Schedules Direct data. It is a "one-stop shop" - it will download the EPG from Schedules Direct and load it into TV Server.
