I thought about doing it with LUA but my time is limited with family and work. Just a thought , what do you think? |

The only problem is, the only way to update the timetable would be to get it from a company such as SKY or NTL or a company that uses them in their own systems. Getting it directly from them is unlikely, and intercepting thier feed and distributing it is probably illegal unless both the distributer and reciever are subscribed to thier service.
Otherwise, you would have to have someone reading a TV guide every day and writing them on a server. Not ideal.
All in all, not a bad idea, though.
