PyTVGrab is a Python-based software library that offers tv_grabbers and XMLTV functionality for television programming.
To get started with PyTVGrab, simply extract the downloaded package using the standard "tar xfvz package-name.tar.gz" command. Once extracted, you need to install the library by running "python setup.py install" on your command line. Then, repeat the same command for the grabber itself.
Once these steps are done, you'll have the grabber and library installed on your system. To start the grabber, use the "tv_grab_XX_XXX" command (for example, "tv_grab_be_tvb"). If you need further information on how to use the grabber, you can run it with --help to get detailed usage instructions.
What's great about PyTVGrab is that its usage is compatible with any Perl XMLTV scripts. This offers immense flexibility for users who might have an existing library of scripts that they want to integrate with this software. With its easy installation and compatibility features, PyTVGrab is certainly a must-try software for XMLTV enthusiasts and Python lovers alike.
