tvtv.us and tvtv.ca URL changes

There has been recent changes to the URL's at tvtv.us and tvtv.ca

e.g.

Old URL
https://tvtv.ca/qc/montreal/lu5931D
https://tvtv.us/ny/buffalo/14201/lu2381D

New URL
https://tvtv.ca/qc/montreal/luCAN-0004980-X
https://tvtv.us/ny/buffalo/14201/luUSA-DITV501-DEFAULT

As we can see the site code has changed from a numerical value to CAN-xxxxx-X.

I believe the site.ini files for both tvtv.us and tvtv.ca require changes to the regex, to help identify this URL change so the entry used in the WebGrab config (site_id) can continue to function.

hi, thank you for updating the ini file. I was able to create the toronto providers list and got my channel list as well. Unfortunately im not able to create a providers list for the city of Edmonton. I tried the postal code T5H2E5, which works in the website, but I get the error:

Generic syntax exception:
[Critical] message:
[Error ] no index page data received from tvtv
[Error ] unable to update channel, try again later
[ Info ] Existing guide data restored!

I tried a few other postal codes from Edmonton but no luck. Are you able to create a providers list for the pc T5H2E5 or others from this city?

Up to you...
Let me add : this place has been free for years without everyone doing a small contribute. A contribute either to keep this forum up, pay for the server, the dns license, developement and software upgrades, including all the siteini update/upgrade. It all started for fun with very limited costs. Time has changed and without a very small contribution, you will soon click on this url and find "Error 404 Not found".
Bye

wow something definitly screwed up so I updated one my system to newest version and its saying my lisc expired and wont even download the xml you sent me it says skipped because the site.ini is encrypted. my other one the older version will download the xml file you sent and says lisc will expire on 03/05 which is correct but it just wont pull a new channel list

the c2 goes only in field update see picture.
Run update license change to "f" the text that says: To force a license update; replace this text with the letter f
For skipped siteini encrypted see http://webgrabplus.com/faq#faq_5419

The problem you have is due to:
1. the sign "&" that cannot be used in any field of configuration. You could use it as decoded "&_amp_;"(no underscore) but since is a visual aspect of the file name it's easier to use another character.
2. the name of the c1 and c2 has a restricted lenght so cannot be pretty long.

I also tried on newest version released 15hrs ago and it keeps saying skipped- encrypted ini. And I did the wget operation of the ini file instead of transfer thru ftp. I tried a few other ones I use on the newest version and they work fine. Its only tvtv.us giving me the issue
