Some observations as of $now:

i) supplement.xmltv.org/ gives a browseable directory, but e.g. the
tv_augment files is out of date (i.e. older than 2019)

ii) supplement1.xmltv.org/ root directory gives a test page rather
than a browseable directory, but e.g. the tv_augment files seem
current

iii) supplement3.xmltv.org/ seems *very* stale generally.


lib/Supplement.pm.in specifies the default supplement server as
http://supplement.xmltv.org - this seems to be out of date w.r.t.
supplement1.xmltv.org - is there a sync issue here?

I migrated the updated tv_grab_pt_vodafone grabber to use supplement
support the other day but it doesn't look as though the file has been
picked up from github on any of the supplement servers that I can see.

Please could this file be synced across.

After a new build, the following grabbers and utilities are using
Supplement support:

*) tv_augment
*) tv_grab_huro
*) tv_grab_is
*) tv_grab_pt_vodafone

Files are placed into the blib/share/ structure along with the
xmltv.dtd and lineups xsd file.

What's the current status of the supplement server(s) and DNS config?
Are any changes required in the Supplement library or are all changes
hidden behind DNS?

Thanks,
Nick
