(This not only downloads the script, but some other crud as well.) For tvgrabnlpy it was even easier than their overly complicated installation instruction: Installing the grabber script is easy if you are familiar with the Unix terminal.

Also, the tight integration between EyeTV and tvtv means series are better categorized. The difference is that tvtv has specific content for each episode of a series or a show, while grabbers sometimes only list generic information about the series or show. In my experience the EPG data of grabbers like tv_grab_nl_py is decent, although commercial EPG services are still better. I first tried tv_grab_upc, but in the end choose tv_grab_nl_py, for which I wrote a few patches and suddenly became 'maintainer'. The XMLTV Project lists grabbers for other countries. MythTV Netherlands has a list of grabbers that download EPG data from public websites such as and UPC.nl. The only commercial service that offers native EPG data is. In the end I end up using a 'grabber' that retrieved EPG data from public webpages and converts that to XMLTV. Since I was cautious about (I wonder if it is the same data source as tvtv), and tvgidsnl does not supply XMLTV data (I would be happy to pay for that service, but my mail with that suggestion got no reply so far). Thankfully EyeTV supports the XMLTV data format. Despite two mails, I never got a reply.īecause I refuse to pay for a mediocre service, I decided to find another source of EPG data. In 2011, the EPG data was available on their website, but not in EyeTV. In 2009 I got a reply that this was caused by their upstream data provider. In 20 I had a few problems with channels that were not available. I have been very happy with tvtv and Elgato's support in 2005, with good technical support and bug fixes in reasonable time.

Thanks, we will bring more new products to EyeTV and offer better s/w update in the near future, that is our goal, to make good products under good brand name. Ps: Here is the last e-mail I received from Geniatech after thanking them for the fast reply in the above post. I know the EyeTV TV Guide is a unique program, and would be hard and cumbersome to replace. I do not know of any other service like this one, but TV Guide does offer an limited online service of some sort. Until then lets hope Geniatech keeps our TV programs updating. I do not know how many of us are on the TV Guide Subscription service, but I hope it is enough of us to keep it alive. I guess Geniatech will e-mail us with a way to re-new when they get squared away with a renewal process. Hope yours is also still updating your programs. Mine expired on March 29th and is still updating the programs, even though the EyeTV preference pane says it will expire March 29, 2016. Please point me in the right direction in renewing our TV Guide subscription.

I have looked at your Geniatech website for the TV Guide (USA) renewal per Elgato's info, but have found nothing about how to renew our subscription. We do have an urgent request! Our TV Guide Subscription ends on March 29, 2016.

I am a owner of an EyeTv tuner and the EyeTv Software and find both exceptional products. Hope you find the purchase of Elgato’s EyeTv hardware and software a good venture. Thanks for using Eyetv, and we are transfering all service from Elgato to us, and during the transation, we won't stop any subscriptions even it is over time, we will restart to collect the continious subscritions end of March, worst case end of April, during this time, you can use the service as before.
