LittleWizard 28 Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 I have link to an xmltv epg which seems not to work in emby. It has xz compression. Inside the compressed file the epg has not file extension (don't know if this matter). If I open it in windows with winrar and notepad++ is a perfect xmltv file. I use it in Tv headend with a specific python script. My emby server is on a SynologyNas. Is it due to the xz compression? other epg sources with gz compression do work Thanks!

Luke 37066 Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 HI there, please try refreshing the guide data in emby server and then attach the emby server log: How to Report a Problem Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleWizard 28 Posted November 12, 2023 Author Share Posted November 12, 2023 Ok. I'll do it tomorrow. Also with xz file the epg update takes no time and when I go in the "edit metadata" of a channel to check if it has the new guide as an option for epg source, emby keeps on showing a spinning wheel. In the meanwhile I have done a simple bash that download the xz file, unxz it and add xml extension. I set that downloaded file as local epg source and it works. Running the script in synology scheduler every day, should work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleWizard 28 Posted November 13, 2023 Author Share Posted November 13, 2023 Here is the LOG. I removed every EPG source, waited the server to end updating, than at time 11:01 added http://rytecepg.epgspot.com/epg_data/rytecIT_Basic.xz as source epg (ITALY>XMLTV) As I told, unzippig (un-xz) the file and adding the .xml extension, does work as local source. embyserver.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37066 Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Hi @LittleWizardcan you please attach a copy of the .xz file for testing? Maybe zip it up to make sure the forum compression software doesn't mess with it. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
