SchedulesDirect: request that a Jellyfin developer contact me

[onemorejeff]

Jellyfin 10.10.7 landed. I've upgraded, seems good to me. A look at the changelog does not mention the current issure of being locked out of Schedules Direct having been fixed. I will keep using my XMLTV grabber script.

I upgraded to .7 on unraid and SD still locked me out about an hour ago.

FYI for anyone that is having this issue, I believe this is the github issue that we are all experiencing: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/13147

The last post makes a good point about the EFCore work being high priority right now. Hopefully a hero comes along or the EFCore rework goes smooth and this can work up the priority list. Times like this I wish I could do more on the development side, I don't think I would be too successful going into this blind though.

Any word on 10.10.7 working without pissing off with schedules direct?

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.

Hello Jellyfin users.  I am very much a noob here and with xmltv.  I am not an expert in this area by any means.  I have scoured the interwebs for guidance on setting up ingesting xml files to get guide data in Jellyfin and honestly I'm very lost.  I am ignorant in this area as I have never done this before.  Would anyone be able to and is willing to take the time to dm me and guide me through setting this up step by step or direct me to a site that will?  I simply just do not understand how to pull xml data and ingest it.  Any help is much appreciated.
