Revision as of 08:48, 13 November 2008
I've put together a quick script that grabs data from the listings service available from BBC Backstage.
Download
It's available from here. It's very rough-and-ready right now, but it basically works.
License
Like the rest of XMLTV, I've put my code under the GPL. The data is subject to the backstage API terms of use.
Developer notes
It uses the XML web service API, rather than the download. I originally started with the download, but I had problems with the archives not being update, which is when I switched to using the web service. The code for the web service is also simpler.
