Hi Guys,
Astro Malaysia stopped working a few days ago.   I'm not sure if it requires an update?

I tried to update the Channels but got this message.
I'd really appreciate it if some kind person could update the ini?

Thanks!

Thank you mat8661, I am a Donator (I have a badge show up when I log in), but I do not see anything at that link?

I have a working INI for Astro Malaysia. The old ini pulls data from AWS (ams-web-elb-378670955.ap-southeast-1.elb.amazonaws.com), now, if you go to https://whatson.astro.com.my/channels/ and press F12, you see content are pulled from https://ams-api.astro.com.my/ams/v3/****

Use ams-api.astro.com.my for the url_index.

Thank you bert, will give it a try.
Much appreciated.

Hi mat8661 - I looked at the site (I can now access it) but the ini seems to be out of date now as teh site has shifted to whatson.astro.com.my.

e.g. https://whatson.astro.com.my/channels/abc-australia/52/?cat=lifestyle&la...

Could it be updated for this please?

Thanks

k.

create a new channel list using update mode c Sample here: http://www.webgrabplus.com/documentation/configuration/sitechannelsxml:

I have able to grab the Astro EPG with small edit on the .ini file, below is my astro.com.my.ini

Quote:

site {url=astro.com.my|timezone=Asia/Kuala_Lumpur|maxdays=7|cultureinfo=en-GB|charset=UTF-8|titlematchfactor=90|episodesystem=xmltv_ns}

index_title.modify {remove(type=regex)|\sS\d+\sEp\d+\|\sEp\d+}

Why it always ignore the first show of 2nd, 3rd day in case I grab more than 1 day?
It done with every show except those 1st show.
Can you help to test it?
