Active?

[dollis-developer]

I'm guessing from the lack of updates for the last couple of years that this project isnt actively maintained these days?

Am I being unrealistic to still expect things to be working as i'm sure things will have changed a lot since then?

I have managed to get everything setup and working using channel numbers but cant get calling out channels by name to work:

i.e: Alexa, ask tivo to put on "ChannelName"

I am in the UK and using the virgin channel list supplied, if I ask to list the channels I get the correct list from the channels.json file but when I try and use any of the channel names returned with the above command I just get the following back:

Sorry, I couldn't find a channel named "ChannelName" in your Tivo Control channel mapping file.

Also, if I ask to list by Genre I dont get anything back either, I feel like i'm just missing something simple.

alas I havent tried it for years, I wasnt "keen" on exposing my server to the internet for this to work properly.. :-(

should still work though, i might give it a go.. also there might be better ways of doing this now.....

I already had an Apache server exposed serving a couple of other things so I just used that as a reverse proxy to the app-server

It’s a weird one as it must be reading the channels.json file to list the channels but not able to look them up for the other commands

I develop stuff mostly in C# but haven’t got any sort of dev environment set up on this box to try and debug

It was working when I stopped working on my fork 😄 but once TiVo came out with their own basic skill I kinda stopped tinkering with it. And a few months ago I dropped TiVo altogether (after being a customer for 17 years) so yeah, this fork is basically dead. I had fun playing with it while it lasted though!
