FR: Automatic TV Guide XML

[Untoten 296]

So there is the option for Emby to use TV XML.  I have adopted this with ease and I love it.  But I think more basic users may have an issue setting up the .bat file, and monitoring, scheduled tasks,etc.  It would be cool if Emby could handle this itself (self contained) and ask the user to simply input their TV guide or zap2xml credentials and it works.  

The main reason behind this request is not for me, my setup is fine, but for the MANY basic users trying to get this service up.  But it is because of this article   (congrats btw!!) which states:

 

DVR Duel: Emby or Plex?

If you’re willing to roll your own DVR, the main alternative to Emby is Plex, which recently added its own live TV features on Android TV and iOS devices. Plex’s interface is a bit slicker than Emby’s, and its setup is less intimidating, as it supports USB tuners and allows an Nvidia Shield TV box to function as a server. Guide data is also included in a Plex Pass subscription, with a single $150 payment providing lifetime service.
