mythupchuk -- another script for maintaining UK channels
Hello MythTV people

I've put together a script which makes it easy to maintain a list of
channel names, numbers, visibility flags etc., and keep it in sync with
the MythTV database.

I've put the script on GitHub at
https://github.com/StarsoftAnalysis/mythupchuk and added a note to the
wiki page at http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/UK_Channel_Assignments

I hope people find it useful -- please let me know if you do (or don't).

cheers

Chris

Note. A significant number of Freeview channels will be renumbered during
September into a new grouping scheme. (Yet another scan!) I believe this is a
cross-country move. You'll need to update your script to cater for that.

Caveat: I'm not sure that every transmitter is being updated at the same time.

Does that mean that channels will get new service ids? If so, then
there will be some extra editing to do.

But my script is designed to make it easy to incorporate changes to the
tuned channels, so the changes in September will be an interesting test
for it.

when I asked Google about it lately the answer was that the
Logical Channel Numbers are being reordered.

OK, that's easy then. mythupchuk is designed to override the automatic
channel numbers to ones of the user's own choosing, so it won't be upset
by this change. (On the other hand, if you like the standard numbering,
mythupchuk can do that too.)

For information, I found a document[1] that specifies these changes, and
provides this table:

Proposed change to the LCN listings
Proposed LCN listing Current LCN listing
Genre: First LCN Last LCN First LCN Last LCN
General Entertainment 1 99 1 49
60 69
Local - - 200 c.205
HD 101 109 50 59
Children's 110 119 70 79
News 120 139 80 89
Text and MHEG services 200 299 100 120
Adult services 300 349 92 99
189 199
Interactive services 350 399 300 320
IP delivered services 400 499 N/A
Radio 700 750 700 750

As always, consider using the Perl bindings to parse the config.xml for

Good idea -- thanks for that.

I've changed the script accordingly, and completed the documentation,
and updated it all on Github.

cheers

OK, did anyone else read this subject and think "well that's an interesting
way of saying his myth machine crashed. I've heard of servers "barfing"
garbage output but never "upchuck" . . .

No ? Just me ?

Just you apparently. It might catch on though.

I thought that name for the script might amuse someone, so I'm glad you
were paying attention.

Noticed it but did not care to comment that it is still not quite right.
Since it is aimed solely at users in Great Britain, surely it should be
"mythukchuk".

I'm sorry I think you made a typo

Surely you meant

Mythyukchuk

HI

Do you still maintain the mythupchuk script? I'm having a few problems and
was hoping you may be able to help.

Not sure if Chris is, there have been a few threads on the list regarding
mythupchuk, but no input from Chris.D.

I also dropped him an email with a few problems I came across, but no reply.

What issues are you having?

Re: mythupchuk -- another script for maintaining UK channels [In reply to]
Well I started by deleting all my channels and performing a fresh scan.
This is a FTA scan of 28.2E only.

so i cloned the latest guthub mythypchuk and ran: ./mythupchuk
--fileupdate channels.list

This gave the output below

New file 'channels.list' has been created

566 new channels added to file
0 channels newly marked as deleted in file

So i tried to update the channels.list and set a number of channels to be
deleted and when i ran

./mythupchuk --dbupdate channels.list i got a number of messgaes. So i
recreated the channles.list (deleted the modified one) and then tried to
just to the dbupdate with an unmodified channels.list and i get the
following errors.

Re: mythupchuk -- another script for maintaining UK channels [In reply to]
The invalid data lines is caused by callsign and/or name being blank. I
got round that error by putting something in for those fields. As I
was deleting them anyway it didn't matter what. I was/am planning on
updating it to cope with that which I will push back.(Chris incorporated a
couple of minor changes I made previously).

The other lines suggest that you have duplicates in your database.

Possibly see
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/264034#264034 and try
"Delete all video sources" before doing a rescan.

Hello Folks

Yes, I do still maintain mythupchuk. Sorry if I haven't been replying
to messages -- I don't read the MythTV list everyday, and stuff easily
gets lost in all the other posts.

And I don't recall getting an email directly from you -- I definitely
would have replied if I'd seen it.

I'll now read the rest of this thread, and see if I can help...

cheers

Chris

I thought I had already fixed it to put something into missing
name/callsign fields -- I'll check again.

Indeed. I always delete the existing channels before retuning, either
directly in via MySQL (deleting all records in tables 'channel' and
'dtv_multiplex' where sourceid is the source that I'm retuning), or via
mythtv-setup (the channel editor will delete all channels for a source).

cheers

Chris

You should not delete the contents of dtv_multiplex, unless you have made a
really bad hash of your database.

If you do that, you will have to scan everything again and possibly filter out
the muxes which apply to you.

Now that the digital switchover is complete bar some minor twiddling the mux
table will not change very much at all. If you leave that table alone you'll be
able to select the "scan existing transports" option and save yourself a big step.

Thanks for that advice, Mike - that will simplify things greatly.

Hi Chris, I emailed the address on the script page (@starsoftanalysis.co.uk),
I will re-send to this address.

I got the "invalid data at line xx" when I had channel IDs with hyphens in,
a couple of which were added here, I just binned them off, as most likely
junk

Cheers

Martin
