Setting up.ini file for Wollongong Channels

[Sydney30]

Hi,

I am currently using Tony's EPG and TV Harvestor to get my TV listings data for my Toppy. I wanted to set up my Toppy to get your data (as I beleive you will offer a more reliable service to get the TV listings then what I can get off the web).

I am however having difficulties in setting up the .ini file. I get Wollongong channels which are almost identical to the Sydney chanels so I wanted to get your Sydney TV data and assign it to my Wollongong chanells.

My chanels are:
2 - ABC
3 - SBS Sydney
5 - Southern Cross TEN Capital
6 - Prime
8 - WIN

I can't get them reordered as channells 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

My .ini file for TONY's EPG is as follows:

[General]

GMT_Offset=44
Frequency File check=60
AutoLoadEPGdata at start=YES
Next Update Time=-4
Display LOADING OSD=YES
Logging Level (4everything 0nothing)=4
Number of Services=11

[TV Parameters]

[Channel 1]

[Channel 2]

service_name=ABC
service_id=673
transport_stream_id=547
original_network_id=4112

[Channel 3]

service_name=SBS Sydney
service_id=769
transport_stream_id=768
original_network_id=12802

[Channel 4]

[Channel 5]

service_name=Southern Cross TEN Capital
service_id=2057
transport_stream_id=2057
original_network_id=12812

[Channel 6]

service_name=Prime
service_id=2370
transport_stream_id=2463
original_network_id=12929

[Channel 7]

[Channel 8]

service_name=WIN
service_id=1
transport_stream_id=12923
original_network_id=12915


I want to Alias your Sydney TV listings data to my Wollongong channels. Do you know what my .ini file needs to look like??

I apperciate your assistance and can't wait to give your program a try because currently it takes about 45mins to download 7 days worth of EPG data but I can download 7 days from you in a matter of minutes, plus your GUI and system is much easier to use and (provided I can get it to work) I only need to connect the Toppy and push one button (simplicity, that is what I want).

I eagerly await your reply.

Thanks.

This is the file I use here in the Blue Mts, where I receive some Wollongomg and some Sydney channels.  Hope this gives you enough information for your needs.  This is the IceGuide4Topfield.ini file on the pc, not the ini file on the Topy, that is generated automatically by the IceGuide4Topfield.exe

Let me know how it goes...
