NAME
mythnettv - RSS video aggregator for MythTV
DESCRIPTION
mythnettv is a RSS video aggregtor for MythTV. It take downloads video feeds and places them in the recording directory in MythTV, then makes them accessible with the rest of your recordings. This implementation has advantages over other RSS readers for MythTV in that it: - ignores the content of the post -- it's all about the video files - queues downloads, instead of making them when feeds are added, or new shows are posted (this stops you from running out of disk, or having a huge show backlog)
USAGE
(manual usage) url <url> <title> : to download an RSS feed and load the shows from it into the TODO list. The title is as the show title in the MythTV user interface file <url> <title>: to do the same, but from a file, with a show title like url above download <num> : to download that number of shows from the TODO list. We download some of the oldest first, and then grab some of the newest as well. download <num> <title filter> : the same as above, but filter to only download shows with a title exactly matching the specified filter download <num> <title filter> <subtitle filter> : the same as above, but with a regexp title filter as well download <num> <title filter> <subtitle filter> justone : the same as above, but download just one and then mark all other matches as read cleartodo : permanently remove all items from the TODO list markread <num> : interactively mark some of the oldest <num> shows as already downloaded and imported markread <num> <title filter> : the same as above, but filter to only mark shows with a title exactly matching the specified filter markread <num> <title filter> <subtitle filter> : the same as above, but with a regexp title filter as well (handy stuff) todoremote : add a remote URL to the TODO list. This will prompt for needed information about the video, and set the date of the program to now todoremote <url> <title> <subtitle> <description> : the same as above, but don't prompt for anything importremote : download and immediately import the named URL. Will prompt for needed information importremote <url> <title> <subtitle> <description> : the same as above, but don't prompt for anything importtorrent <url> <title> <subtitle> <description> : the same as above, but force the URL to be treated as a torrent. This is useful when MythNetTV doesn't automatically detect that the URL is to a torrent file. importlocal <file>: import the named file, using the title, subtitle and description from the command line. The file will be left on disk. importlocal <file>: import the named file. The file will be left on disk. Will prompt for needed information importmanylocal <path> <regexp> <title>: import all the files from path matching regexp. title is use as the title for the program, and the filename is used as the subtitle (subscription management) subscribe <url> <title> : subscribe to a URL, and specify the show title list : list subscriptions unsubscribe <url> : unsubscribe from a URL update : add new programs from subscribed URLs to the TODO list archive <title> <path> : archive all programs with this title to the specified path. This is useful for shows you download and import, but want to build a non-MythTV archive of as well http_proxy <url regexp> <proxy> : you can choose to use a HTTP proxy for URL requests matching a given regular expression. Use this command to define such an entry. This might be handy if some of the programs you wish to subscribe to are only accessible over a VPN. http_proxy <url regexp> <proxy> <budget mb> : the same as above, but you can specify the maximum number of megabytes to download via the proxy in a given day. To see proxy usage information, use the proxyusage command. (reporting) statistics : show some simple statistics about MythNetTV log : dump the current internal log entries nextdownload <num> : if you executed download <num>, what would be downloaded? proxyusage : print a simple report on HTTP proxy usage over the last seven days (debugging) videodir : show where MythNetTV thinks it should be placing video files explainvideodir : verbosely explain why that video directory was selected. This can help debug when the wrong video directory is being used, or no video directory at all is found
