TvProfil XMLTV service

For business use of EPG data go to http://tvprofil.net/epg/

For private use start here:


• There are two types of files: daily and weekly.
• • Weekly file contains 2 day EPG, starting form today 6:00 (am).
    - weekly format: xmltv/data/{ channel-xmltv-id }/weekly_{ channel-xmltv-id }_tvprofil.net.xml
    - don't use this file for frequent downloads
  • Daily file contains EPG for specific day from 00h-24h CET.
    - daily format: xmltv/data/{ channel-xmltv-id }/YYYY-MM-DD_{ channel-xmltv-id }_tvprofil.net.xml
• This change was made because server was too loaded. Static XML files are refreshed on internal channel update.
• Charset encoding is UTF-8
• Timezone is CET (Central european) UTC+02h summer time, UTC+01h winter
• Language is mostly in channel origin language
• Get full channel list in XMLTV format: channel-list.tvprofil.net.xml
  
  
• Don't download weekly XML more the once a day because of server load and data is refreshed at most once a day (except Croatian national channels)
• Don't use tvprofil XMLTV links directly in XMBC/KODI iptvsimple plugin!!! It's buggy and is spamming our server, your IP will be automatically baned if you miss use it. Use wget script, download files locally, combine them and import them into Kodi from your disk (not URL)
