SchedulesDirect: request that a Jellyfin developer contact me

[rkulagow]

Hi -

I'm the developer that created and manage the JSON service at SchedulesDirect. Can someone from Jellyfin please contact me regarding an issue between the Jellyfin client and the SchedulesDirect service?

I can be reached at rkulagow @ schedulesdirect.org

Thanks.

Hi, we have recieved your email and the issue will be investigated. There is no guarantee on timeline as we are all volunteers, and I recommend future issues be reported via GitHub.

I assume this is why my program data is broken and all of the Country/Regions are "Undefined" in the setup now?

I also have the Country/Regions listed as "Undefined" in the setup and my recording schedule is broken.

A Github issue has been opened.

The issue in GitHub should have the priority raised. Everyone using SchedulesDirect is apparently down.

Agreed, it's #199 in the list of needs testing: https://github.com/orgs/jellyfin/project...ds+Testing

This affects schedules and recording. LiveTV on jellyfin is basically broken without this.

Does anyone have a temporary work-around for this problem?

I have configured my TV Guide Data Providers for XMLTV to use an XML file with listings data that I generate once a day from SchedulesDirect using tv_grab_na_dd. There's 2 downsides to this approach:
1 - my generated listings file does not contain season and episode numbers so ignore duplicate recordings setting does not work.
2 - any recordings previously scheduled under the Schedules Direct configuration are ignored. I had to set up new recording schedules.
It's much cleaner to use the SchedulesDirect listing provider directly.
