[vdr] Re: Howto send epg-data with svdrpsend.pl ?

[Onno <onnok@web.de>]

Hmm,
im sorry i cant help with svdrpsend.pl, since i know no reason for
using it (only one bug source more), but netcat(nc),cat  and echo -e do
work very good here.
example of import :

(echo -e "clre";cat /video/epg.data;echo -e "mesg EPG Import done!\nquit")|netcat 127.0.0.1 2001

will clear epg, re-import it and give message to osd when done.
if your vdr gets to its knees while importing, you might want to add
a delay of 1 sec for each line send by netcat (netcat -i 1), a timeout
for waiting connections can be set with the netcat option "-w <sec>" .


Regards Onno

hope this can help
