Hi,
Sorry if this has been asked before. Is it possible to get the data from https://connect.bein.com/tv-guide? I am able to get the data from https://www.bein.com/en/tv-guide/?c=?? however I would like the programme description that is available for some programmes via the connect website.

bein connect for mena has no epg(it exists but there is no data)
so it would be usa/canada which has the same epg.
most use this ini for sports channels and i see no gain in having another ini to maintain for a description of of a sports event.
Hi, I might be misunderstanding you but say if I look at the following: https://www.bein.com/en/tv-guide/?c=us. There is no description or basic information whereas, when I look at https://connect.bein.com/tv-guide, I get the same but when I click on more-info there is a description for the programmes for most especially the entertainment channels. I am able to get the data from https://www.bein.com/en/tv-guide/?c=us, but I am struggling with https://connect.bein.com/tv-guide possibly because it blocks you.
page loads in browser fine so i cant be being blocked.
i see no data,take a screen shot if you do.
The data loads in the browser but not through serverside code and if you are unable to see the data, then maybe your country is being blocked?
ok,thanks.
i will try it with vpn.
are u using vpn?
if not what country ip are u using?
US works fine when I use a VPN. It also works fine without a VPN...
hmm,i get same results(no data) with vpn(usa).
from you dev tools copy the link for the epg data(paste it in a txt file) and upload it.
also run this ini and upload your wg log file,its for the channel list.
this is the reason i am being blocked(see screenshot).
Maybe there was an issue with my VPN as when I reconnected with US it wasn't working....but try a country in MENA...I have the data when I check Egypt...
tried egypt,still no data...
That is why my serverside code is being blocked...as the server is based in US and I have no experience with ini files, I use PHP curl or other coding...
nm,it works with saudi arabia ip.
give me a hour or so.
Did you check your IP address to make sure that it was Egypt?
give this a try.
this wont work with the dotnet webgrab version,its gives a SSL error.
we havnt figured out why some sites give this error so use webgrab version 3.x that uses mono.
Thanks, but im not using webgrab.I'm using php curl to retrieve the data. The problem is the curl request gets blocked if your server isn't in MENA region.
grabbing the actual epg does not require a vpn,least not for me.
i did need it to generate the channel list though.
i am in canada and i can grab data no problem without vpn.
