now repackaged for PR1.2 and promoted. http://maemo.org/packages/package_in...howtime/1.2-3/
Please test/vote by clicking the link above to promote this app to extras.

app website : http://showtime.passiongarage.co.uk


P.S.
I tried repackaging the old version that has enough votes to make it to extras.
But due to unexplainable issues with the repository Im not able to repackage simply by linking to the PR1.2 qt libs and Ive lost all the votes now !
Ive mailed the debmaster hope I get some replies for that.
The newer version above has many more features and performance improvements.

thanks.

Holy cow, I don't know why I haven't seen this app before, but this must be my favorite app of them al already. It does exactly what it should do, it does it fast and easy, and best of all: it supports Belgium!

Thanks a bunch!

When I go to the page where I should be able to vote, it displays the message that promotion is blocked. Is this normal?

Thanks edbanger.
it shouldnt be blocked, I just noticed Carl just voted there, and I just cast 1 myself too.

hope you went to this link for voting.

I've got a really big problem with ur newest version : It's not possible to chose "favourites" after pressing "Pick channels". Had no issues with earlier releases.


//edit, oops, I just forgot to chose my region :P
Working perfect now. Thx 4 the update.

New version 1.2-4 uploaded to the repository.

Added support for 2 additional regions
Slovakia
Czech Republic.

Thanks to Pavol Palaj who provided the data source. I dont know his maemo talk id.

Also as mentioned to Pavol already, this data source contains many funny characters, Showtime displays them as it is.
Showtime downloads data for slovakia/czech from http://frantisheq.sk/xmltv/sk/CET_sk.xmltv

If somebody has better data sources Im happy to update them.

Request users who have already used this app to vote here, 5 votes needed to push this to extras.
Thanks to those who have voted.

for those who havent tried the app, details are on its website

cheers

This app would be better if it connected to the internet and provided us with the air times of a specific tv series in that country and then we could just add it to the list and it would update automatically if the air date and time changes.
Forget adding the times and everything urself, too much work. Apps should do the work for you!

In meantime im gonna pass on this 1

App works nicely except the UK channels listings seem to be an hour out, so schedule shown in app is one hour behind true programme time... unsure how to amend this...

I'm looking for some new testers for getting more votes and cleaning the testing QA queue, so I've created a "starting list" for newcomers with some apps to test, and I've inserted Showtime, because I think it should be easy to test and to use.

Hope that will help testing and improving this nice app. See my signature for the testing list, we are looking for new testers!

had fixed this issue, dont know if there are still issues with the data source Im using. I'll need to check on this later and I'll report what I see.
Its perhaps something to do with the daylight saving which the data source doesn't cater for .

http://www.xmltvepg.be/rytecxmltvuk.gz is the UK channel listing source.

I'll have a look later in the day today and let you know what the issue is and when it can be rectified.

Thanks, I have checked and I have the latest version installed... will check back later for your response i wonderd whether it would be dlst too....
