EPG Collector Files

EPG Collector Version 3.1
=========================

1. Introduction
===============

1.1 Overview
============

EPG Collector is a Windows package for collecting DVB or ATSC EPG data. It can retrieve and process EIT, MHEG5, OpenTV, 
MediaHighway1 and 2, FreeSat and ATSC PSIP format EPG data and produce an XMLTV compliant file.

It can receive data from terrestrial (DVB-T), satellite (DVB-S), cable (DVB-C), ATSC or Clear QAM tuners. It also has 
facilities for DiSEqC switching. 

As an alternative to creating an XMLTV file data can also be passed directly to DVBLink TVSource, Windows Media Center 7 or 
DVBViewer or the related Recording Service. 

It can be used on all versions of Windows from Windows XP SP3 onwards.

There are 2 distinct parts to the Collector package. The first part, EPG Centre, is responsible for maintaining collection 
parameters and the data files that are used to support collection. In addition it has facilities for viewing 
collection logs, the XMLTV output file and dumping and analyzing a transport stream.

The second part, EPG Collector, is the collection program itself. This is a command line program that can be run from
EPG Centre, run manually or run from a scheduled task.

There is also a plugin available that can be used with the DVBLogic TVSource software to enable seamless collection of EPG data 
from within TVSource. This uses exactly the same processes as the normal collection program.


1.2 Application Data Directory
==============================

Throughout this document reference is made to the application data directory. This varies depending on the version of Windows 
and whether or not the user running the software has Administrator privileges or not. The various locations are as follows:

	Administrator:
	
	Windows XP:	C:\Documents and Setting\All Users\Application Data\Geekzone\EPG Collector
	Vista/W7:	C:\ProgramData\Geekzone\EPG Collector

	User:
	
	Windows XP:	C:\Documents and Setting\%user%\Local Settings\Application Data\Geekzone\EPG Collector
	Vista/W7:	C:\Users\%user%\AppData\Local\Geekzone\EPG Collector

Note that parts of these paths are normally hidden. EPG Centre will list the location of the directories it uses in the 
log on loading. These are visible using the General log view.

1.3 Acknowledgements
====================

This project was not possible without the help and encouragement of many people. It was initially inspired and supported by 
forum members at Geekzone where the enthusiasm shown got the project started.

There are some individuals who need special mention though having provided outstanding support to the developers.

2. EPG Collector
================

2.1 Running EPG Collector
=========================

The collection process is controlled by an initialization file. The initialization file can be created and subsequently changed 
by using EPG Centre and is specified to the collection process via an optional command line parameter (/ini=filename).

If it is not specified, the default file name of "EPG Collector.ini" will be used and the file must be located in the application
data directory. If the filename contains spaces it must be enclosed in quotes (eg /ini="a file name.ini").   

An initialization parameter (Tuner) specifies which tuners are to be used by the collection process Any combination of tuners 
that are available can be used except for DVBLink virtual tuners. If you select 'Any Tuner' when creating the initialization 
file in a configuration that has multiple tuners the program will use the first one that is available that is appropriate 
for the frequency it is attempting to tune.

Note that the program requires exclusive access to any tuner that it uses.

Each frequency defined in the initialization file is scanned until all data is collected or the timeout period defined in 
the initialization file expires. The XMLTV file contains the aggregation of all the data collected. For most situations only one 
frequency is required. EIT and MHEG5 data is normally the same on every frequency for a particular broadcaster and OpenTV is 
normally broadcast on a single 'base' frequency'. 

A number of initialization files are supplied in the 'Samples' directory as examples covering various combinations of data.
These are presented as tasks when you use EPG Centre to create a new initialization file.
 
In many cases a sample file will be sufficient to run a successful collection but for satellite collections especially it may be 
necessary to change the dish parameters to match your hardware. 

The output file is created each time the utility is run. The full name of the file can be specified in the initialization file. The 
default name if one is not specified in the initialization file is TVGuide.xml created in the application data directory.

Extensive logging information is output to the console window and a log file (EPG Collector.log). The log rolls round when it 
reaches 8MB and is written to the same sub-directory of the Windows application data directory as the default output file. 
Other log files may be created by the different protocols using options in the initialization file.

The program can be abandoned at any time by pressing the 'Q' key. No output file will be produced.

An exit code is set prior to terminating which can be tested for in a command file. The values are as follows:

	0 = run successful, all data collected
	1 = no DVB tuners detected
	2 = failed to open the initialization file
	3 = the initialization parameters are incorrect
	4 = the command line is incorrect
	5 = a program exception has occurred
	6 = run completed but data incomplete
	7 = cancelled by user
	8 = the initialization parameters do not match the tuner configuration or there is a parameter conflict.
	9 = cannot write log file
	10 = some frequencies could not be processed
	11 = the output file could not be created
	12 = the simulated input data failed
	13 = run completed normally but no data collected

2.2 Installation
================

The package is available as a Windows Installer file (msi) or as a zipped collection of files. Both formats have the same contents. 
The package does not install any drivers or DirectShow filters, nor does it store or alter any registry settings.

If you install from the Windows Installer file a shortcut is installed on the Desktop to run EPG Centre.

It is not necessary to uninstall any old version before installing a new version.

IMPORTANT - Users of the DVBLogic plugin who are updating from an earlier version must update the plugin after installation by 
loading EPG Centre and selecting the 'File' and 'Update DVBLogic Plugin Module' menu options. 

In addition, if the plugin has been running prior to carrying out an EPG Collector install, you will need to stop the DVBLinkServer
process using Task Manager or the EPG Collector install will fail because some of the files will be in use. The DVBLinkServer 
process is visible in Task Manger on the Processes tab. On Windows 7 you will need to click 'Show processes from all users' to
see it.

The DVBLinkServer process will restart automatically.

When running EPG Centre to update the DVBLogic plugin it is necessary to have Administrator privileges to be able to update it
because the plugin must be installed in the Windows programs directory structure. The easiest way to ensure this is to use 
'Run as Administrator' when loading EPG Centre. This is available either by right clicking on the desktop icon or by navigating 
to the file EPG Centre.exe and right clicking on it.

2.3 Initialization Parameters
=============================

Each collection requires a parameter set that is created and maintained by EPG Centre.

If you have parameters that were created for earlier versions of the package prior to 3.0 you can use the EPG Centre to
convert them to the format described here by choosing to change a parameter file and then saving it. It will be saved in
the new format.

2.4 LNB Parameters
==================

EPG Centre has a list of default LNB settings that are accessed by repeatedly pressing the Default button next to the LNB
fields.

The list represents the following

9750000,  10600000, 11700000	standard universal LNB (commonly found in Europe)
10750000, 10750000, 0		single oscillator LNB
11300000, 11300000, 0		single oscillator LNB
10700000, 10700000, 0		single oscillator LNB
10600000, 10600000, 0		single oscillator LNB

You can also set custom values if necessary.

If you set the LNB switch value to zero EPG Collector will use a very high number (20000000) to ensure the tuner driver
does not turn on the 22kHz signal. This is consistent with other applications that control LNB's.  

2.5 DiSEqC Switching
====================

EPG Centre provides facilites to specify the necessary DiSEqC switching for the collection process using a list of possible
ports.

The list supports the following ports:

	1. Simple port A or B.
	2. Ports AA, AB, BA or BB. These use committed commands for switches supporting DiSEqC 1.0 and may also be known as 
           ports A - D.
	3. Port 1 - 16. These use uncommitted commands for switches supporting DiSEqC 1.1.
	4. Port AA1 through AB4. These use a combination of committed and uncommitted commands for switches that support
	   both DiSEqC 1.0 and 1.1.

As an alternative you can enter custom DiSEqC commands in the box at the top of the list. Each command is entered as a series
of hex values with one or more spaces separating each byte. Multiple commands can be entered separated by the ':' (colon) 
character. Multiple commands are transmitted to the switch separated by a 150 msec gap.

So, for example, the uncommitted command to switch to port 2 would be entered as 'e0 10 39 01' (DiSEqC commands specify port 
numbers starting from zero).

Note that values entered manually are not validated. If the correct switching does not occur first check the EPG Collector
log which lists the DiSEqC commands as they are transmitted. If a manually entered value is formatted incorrectly the 
transmitted value will be seen in the log as a string of zeros.

2.6 Importing Data
==================

2.6.1 Importing To Windows Media Center 7 (7MC)
===============================================

There is an option on the Output tab of EPG Centre to trigger the transfer of data directly from the collection process into
7MC.

If this option is selected, once the data collection is successfully completed, an MXF file is created and the 7MC
utility LoadMXF is run to import the data. Progress on the load process is reported in the EPG Collector log
file.

It is a requirement that the LoadMXF utility is installed in the 7MC ehome directory. If it is not the import
will fail. Messages are output to the EPG Collector log file showing which location is used to load the utility.

The data imported has the provider name set to EPG Collector. This is the name that will be shown by 7MC when a channel is
edited to link the EPG data to the channel listing.

The import option is not intended to replace Big Sreen EPG (BSEPG) which has more sophisticated facilities for importing
EPG data to 7MC. It is intended as a simple import function for those users who don't want to run an additional item of software.

2.6.2 Importing To DVBViewer/Recording Service
==============================================

There is an option on the Output tab of EPG Centre to trigger the transfer of data directly from the collection process into
either DVBViewer or the related Recording Service.

In the case of the Recording Service the current EPG data can also be deleted before the transfer of the new data takes
place. The port that the Recording Service uses for the import of data is also specified on the Output tab of EPG Centre.

If you choose to import to DVBViewer note that it must be loaded and running when the collection process attempts to 
import the data.

Irrespective of whether the data is imported to DVBViewer or the Recording Service the collection process accesses the 
tuners directly so they must not be in use by DVBViewer or the Recording Service when the collection process starts. The 
collection process does not use the NetStream plugin.

 


3. DVBLink Plugin
=================

3.1 Overview
============

The DVBLink plugin provides seamless collection of EPG data within a TV Source environment. The plugin will collect all the 
types of EPG data spported by the stand-alone collection process.

The TV Source software takes care of all aspects of the hardware and the tuning process. The plugin receives data once a frequency
is tuned successfully. 

Each frequency that is scanned must have a matching parameter file that specifies the type of data to collect along with the 
relevant parameters and options available for the stand-alone collection process. Nearly all the options and settings
available to the stand-alone collection are relevant to the plugin. The parameter files are created and maintained using 
EPG Centre.

The EPG data collected can be passed directly to TV Source by the plugin or it can be written to an XMLTV compliant file
if it is to be processed further or it can be imported to Windows Media Centre 7 by EPG Collector itself.

The advantages and disadvantages of the various methods are as follows:

	Passed to TVSource
	==================

	Advantages - Setup of EPG can be done entirely within DVBLink Server Configuration. No other software needed.

	Disadvantages - Extended and custom program categories not available

	Create XMLTV file
	=================

	Advantages - Other software (eg BSEPG) can be used to enhance the data prior to import to Windows Media Centre

	Disadvantages - Program categories and program colour coding not supported unless BSEPG used.

	EPG Collector import
	====================

	Advantages - Extended and custom program categories and program colour coding supported. No other software needed.

	Disadvantages - Setup needs to be done in DVBLink Server Configuration and Windows Media Center

3.2 Installation
================

The plugin is released as part of the normal package. When plugin parameter files are created or updated using the EPG Centre, as
well as writing the parameter file to the TV Source EPG directory, the plugin module is automatically installed in the same directory.

There is also a menu option in EPG Centre to update the plugin in the TV Source EPG directory. This option will be needed if the
EPG Collector package is updated or a fix is released for the plugin.

Because of this procedure the plugin will not appear in the list of available EPG sources in TV Source until either a parameter 
file is created or the plugin update option is chosen in the EPG Centre.

IMPORTANT - Users of the DVBLogic plugin who are updating from an earlier version must update the plugin after installation by 
loading EPG Centre and selecting the 'File' and 'Update DVBLogic Plugin Module' menu options. 

In addition, if the plugin has been running prior to carrying out an EPG Collector install, you will need to stop the DVBLinkServer
process using Task Manager or the EPG Collector install will fail because some of the files will be in use. The DVBLinkServer 
process will restart automatically.

When running EPG Centre to update the DVBLogic plugin it is necessary to have Administrator privileges to be able to update it
because the plugin must be installed in the Windows programs directory structure. The easiest way to ensure this is to use 
'Run as Administrator' when loading EPG Centre. This is available either by right clicking on the desktop icon or by navigating 
to the file EPG Centre.exe and right clicking on it.

3.3 Parameter Files
===================

The EPG Centre must be used to create a parameter file for each frequency that is to be scanned for EPG data. The parameter
file will contain parameters and options that control the plugin collection process in the same way as the stand-alone process.

When running EPG Centre to create or update the parameters it is necessary to have Administrator privileges because the parameter
files are held in the same location as the plugin in the Windows programs directory structure. The easiest way to ensure this is 
to use 'Run as Administrator' when loading EPG Centre. This is available either by right clicking on the descktop icon or by 
navigating to the file EPG Centre.exe and right clicking on it.

3.4 Log Files
=============

The plugin outputs logging information to the normal EPG Collector log, not to the TV Source log. The contents can be viewed
using the EPG Centre.





4. Program Genres/Categories
============================

4.1 Overview
============

Program genres or categories are sometimes present in the data stream from the broadcaster. They are especially relevant to
Windows Media Centre users where there are facilities for viewing the program schedules using multiple levels of category and are
used to colour code programs in the Program Guide. They can also be seen in other packages such as DVBViewer.

EPG Centre and EPG Collector provide facilities for mapping the broadcast categories to the destination package including
the ability to define custom categories that fill in gaps or override those from the broadcaster.

4.2 Mapping Categories
======================

Files are included in the installation that both translate the program category from a code to a description and also map the 
categories to the destination package.

Each file contains a mapping from the broadcast category to a generic description, a Windows Media Centre list of categories, a 
DVBLogic list of categories or a DVBViewer category.

There is a single file for the EIT and PSIP protocols and a file for each country for the OpenTV protocol.

MediaHighway1 and 2 require a different file for each frequency because the category codes are under the control of the broadcaster
and their translations are included in the data broadcast. They may therefore vary from frequency to frequency. Two frequencies 
are included in the installation and others can easily be set up using EPG Centre.

There are currently no MHEG5 category files as the two locations broadcasting MHEG5 that EPG Collector can process, Australia and
New Zealand, do not broadcast program categories. To assign programs to categories for these locations you must set up custom
categories.

EPG Centre provides facilities for maintaining and changing all the category translation/mapping files and for maintaining
custom categories.

Note that the DVBLogic and DVBViewer categories are limited to specific values. The values allowed for DVBLogic are listed in
Appendix 2 and those for DVBViewer in Appendix 3.


4.3 Custom Categories
=====================

Custom categories allow you to assign programs to categories where the broadcaster has not broadcast the relevant data or to
override the broadcasters classification of a program. They are created and maintained from within EPG Centre and a single list
is used for all types of protocol.

Each custom category is defined with a tag which identifies the program or programs to be given the category. The tag is matched 
with each program name and description and if the tag matches the program is assigned the associated category. As with the
individual protocol categories you can define a list of categories for Windows Media Centre and DVBLogic and a single category for
DVBViewer for each tag.

The tag can either identify the whole program name or description or it can just match part of them. 

If the tag begins with the '<' character the tag is matched with the beginning of the program name or description. If the tag
ends with the '>' character it is matched with the end of the program name or description and if the tag has both characters
present then it can occur anywhere within the program name or description.

For example if the following tags
 
	<Niro	Niro>	<Niro>

are matched with a program that had a description ending in 'starring Robert De Niro' then only the last two tags would match
since the first requires that the tag occurs at the beginning of the name or description.

In addition, once a tag has matched no other tags will be processed for the program. Where two or more tags are similar
the tag matching process starts with the more specific tag and works towards the least specific. For example the tag
<Rugby World Cup> will be matched before a similar tag of <Rugby>.

The matching process is case insensitive.

4.4 Location Of Files
=====================

The standard set of category files are installed in a sub-directory of the installation directory. 

However, if you change any of these files with EPG Centre the updated file will be written to the application data directory 
as defined earlier in section 1.3.

The collection process searches for the relevant category files in the application data directory first before falling back to the
standard category files in the installation directory.

You can therefore revert to the standard category files by simply deleting the relevant file in the application data directory
if it becomes necessary.

The custom category file is always created and updated in the application data directory.

4.5 Windows Media Center categories
===================================

As well as being able to define the categories that Windows Media Center will display there are a few special categories that
are used to cause programs to appear in the preset categories such as Movies and News. These special categories are as follows:

	isMovie		Any program that is in a category with isMovie as a category keyword will appear in the Windows Media 
			Centre special category of Movies.

	isNews		Any program that is in a category with isNews as a category keyword will appear in the Windows Media 
			Centre special category of News.

	isKids		Any program that is in a category with isKids as a category keyword will appear in the Windows Media 
			Centre special category of Kids.

	isSports	Any program that is in a category with isSports as a category keyword will appear in the Windows Media 
			Centre special category of Sports.

	isSpecial	Any program that is in a category with isSpecial as a category keyword will appear in the Windows Media 
			Centre special category of Special.

4.6 DVBLogic Categories
=======================

TVSource accepts a limited number of categories as can be seen in Appendix 2. These categories are only used when the data
is passed directly from the plugin to TVSource.

The plugin does not support DVBLogic categories if you choose to create an XMLTV file from the plugin and pass that directly
to TVSouce. In this scenario you should pass the XMLTV file through BSEPG rather than to TVSource.





Appendices
==========


Appendix 1 Notes on Tuners
==========================

Some of the issues that users have with getting EPG Collector to work surround tuners. This section lists issues that have been
encountered for specific tuners.

Appendix 1.1 DVBLogic virtual tuners
====================================

EPG Collector cannot use DVBLink virtual tuners. These have been specifically designed to work with other elements of DVBLogic software 
and will not interface to software such as the Collector.

Appendix 1.2 TechniSat (all tuners)
===================================

TechniSat tuners can be supplied with 2 separate tuner drivers. If the default installation of the TechniSat driver software is carried out a
non-BDA compliant driver will be installed and the Collector will not work with it. It will appear to acquire a signal but no data will be received.

The TechniSat BDA compliant tuner driver is in the BDA subdirectory of the driver software. It must be installed by responding to the Windows 
'New Hardware Found' message and pointing the Windows installation process at the BDA directory.

Appendix 1.3 TechniSat Mantis
=============================

If you are using a DiSEqC switch with this tuner do not select the option on the Tuning tab to repeat the DiSEqC command in the event of an error.
The Mantis tuner returns an error even though the DiSEqC command succeeds and repeating the command causes it to not pass any data to the Collector.

Appendix 1.4 HD HomeRun
=======================

The HD HomeRun is a network tuner. The Collector can use the virtual tuners set up by this device but it must be given security clearance to
access the network first or it will silently fail. 

This is due to an apparent fault in the Windows OS in that the security failure message is not displayed when the Collector tries to use
the virtual tuner.

Appendix 1.5 Pinnacle
=====================

There is a option on the EPG Centre Tuning tab labelled 'Repeat DiSEqC command if first attempt failed'. Users of Pinnacle tuners must
set this option or DiSEqC switching will not work.

 

Appendix 2 DVBLogic Categories
==============================

The values that can be entered for a DVBLogic category are as follows. If more than one is entered they are separated by a
comma and they are case insensitive.

Action
Comedy
Documentary
Drama
Educational
Horror
Kids
Movie
Music

Appendix 3 DVBViewer Categories
===============================

The values that can be entered for a DVBViewer category are as follows. They are the same as thse defined by the EIT standard.
Only one can be entered so for the Movie category you would enter 1,0.
