EIT (hdhr: us broacast) for guide data

[racale3127@semonir.com]

Long time mythtv user, learned about jellyfin over the weekend - I am so impressed.

In mythTV, hdhr devices can read transmitted EIT (program schedule) and populate that into the database - link.



Is this possible in jellyfin, or must we setup other sources for guide data?

AFAIK, no. The programming schedule is retrieved from external sources.

I only use IPTV sources, so maybe I'm wrong about how Jellyfin works with OTA sources. But that's my understand from the documentation and old reddit threads I can find.

There is an XMLTV guide server you can run locally here https://github.com/iptv-org/epg

Within JF? No

But you could use EPG Collector for that

I think this is an easy solution, also https://gist.github.com/idolpx/c82747bb7...1e8f17d575
