Questions regarding lineup USA-0000002-CUSTOM (and 0000001)
- Are these the permanent upstream Gracenote names, or Schedules Direct temporary subject to change?
SiliconDust indicated they were working to get the info upstream to Gracenote, but I was unsure they completed that process.
- The transport type is "IPTV".
- Is that the Gracenote transport or Schedules Direct assignment?
Neither Gracenote nor Schedules Direct docs indicate that is an expected transport type. - Is this really the correct type?
. When I see IPTV transport, I typically expect to have available to me a IPTV uri (rtsp:// or http:// or ...)
. Arguably, for this lineup, it is more like a "Cable" transport than "IPTV" (i.e. the channel assignments are STB like, and not uri like), and Cable would fit better with the documentation.
. Potential naming conflict? Should Gracenote ever actually support IPTV guide data (I would love to have the NASA channel guide data), they could end up choosing IPTV. - Do you have any other lineups with a transport type of "IPTV"? Do any of them have URI?
Thanks.
