Trakt & EPG Data

Trakt Feature Requests
1

It would be cool if trakt could integrate with EPG services so people could create lists of what is on TV on a given day based on network. EPG data is publicly available and free :slight_smile:

At the moment, Im parsing EPGs and manually filtering using editors, but it seems this feature could be beneficial to others if easily available on the platform.

Example EPG providers:
https://www.schedulesdirect.org/

Example Free Schedules online:

The first link is a non-profit driven source with a XML available for a small donation, and there are other free ones I can mention as well, but their requested donation doesn’t seem too unfair to integrate into a service like Trakt.

Would be interesting if it wasn’t just for USA/canada :sob:

There are world sources - I just posted USA/Canada as an example.

I’ve made a proof of concept to showcase the functionality. Next update should incorporate Movies. As of now, only scans Episodes and adds to list.

Trakt VIP required :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Updated to include movies now and also accounts for cartoons that often use “Episode 1; Episode 2; Episode 3” in one time block (e.g. Adventure Time, Cow & Chicken, etc)

This is pretty cool! In years past I looked into schedules direct and it wasn’t available for commercial projects. That appears to still be the case.
