PROGRAM:
NAME
tv_merge - Merge (combine) two XMLTV files.
SYNOPSIS
tv_merge -i FILE -m FILE -o FILE
DESCRIPTION
Read XMLTV listings from two files and merge them together. Unlike tv_cat (which just
joins files) this will update (add/replace/delete) the origin XMLTV file with channels and
programmes contained in the second file.
It works with multiple channels, and will insert any new programmes and delete any
overlapping programmes.
IMPORTANT The input files must be pre-sorted into datetime within channel order by using
the "--by-channel" option to tv_sort
e.g. tv_sort --by-channel --output FILE FILE
All programmes must have start and stop times.
(Note: Programmes in the merged-in file replace any in the master file, i.e. data are not
updated within programmes)
This program uses XML::TreePP which doesn't write <DOCTYPE> definitions in the output
file. If you need to add a suitable <DOCTYPE> tag then use the -t parameter.
e.g. tv_merge -i FILE -m FILE -o FILE -t
EXAMPLE
Use "tv_merge -i master.xml -m newadditions.xml -o newmaster.xml" to merge all
channels/programmes in newadditions.xml.
