Update tataplay/dishtv by StrangeDrVN · Pull Request #2970 · iptv-org/epg

StrangeDrVN · 2025-12-24T15:34:11Z

Updated dishtv.in.channels.xml and tataplay.com.channels.xml

Mapped new feeds while fixing a few = iptv-org/database#23562

tataplay.com

channels:parse overwrites previous xml and there's loss of around 200 channels. They seem to be exclusive to satellite and are not available on web. Hence, created a new tataplay.com_dth.channels.xml as a temporary fix. Update tataplay.com #2947 (comment)

dishtv.in

Added ~200 channels.
channels:parse sometimes throws an error 500.

npm run channels:parse

 npm run channels:parse --- --config=sites/dishtv.in/dishtv.in.config.js --output=sites/dishtv.in/dishtv.in.channels.xml

dth channels are not in the api

StrangeDrVN · 2026-02-04T15:44:52Z

@BellezaEmporium could you review this?

BellezaEmporium · 2026-02-04T20:47:57Z

If they're removed from the tataplay list, it might mean they do not provide EPG for those sources anymore. The addition of the "dth" list would most certainly be unnecessary, since it might not work at all.

BellezaEmporium · 2026-02-04T20:53:18Z

Would this endpoint indicate more channels ?

They do provide epg, the programs are being found. But the channels seem to be exclusive to someplace else. Majority of these channels are from same provider jiostar.
Their website mentions this during the first visit.

If they're removed from the tataplay list, it might mean they do not provide EPG for those sources anymore. The addition of the "dth" list would most certainly be unnecessary, since it might not work at all.

StrangeDrVN · 2026-02-05T07:09:10Z

Couldn't find any channels here. Will have to check their app for any clues.

Would this endpoint indicate more channels ?

dishtv config currently gives programs in all the available languages and taking a bit of extra space. Would it be possible to separate/duplicate the channels into different xml for lang?

used this part of the tataplay config to query the parser url with random site_id and got a list of missing channels. Majority are osd/ad/service channels.

url({ date }) {
    return `https://tm.tapi.videoready.tv/content-detail/pub/api/v2/channels/schedule?date=${date.format(
      'DD-MM-YYYY'
    )}`

For number 2, if you can send the language in POST, for the "channels" part at least, you can split the channels by language, and the guide.xml file will stay the same. However, if you want separate guides for each language, you would need to precise which channels file it needs to use, and where to output it.

StrangeDrVN · 2026-02-05T15:21:18Z

I was thinking of something similar to this but defaulting to en unless lang is specified.

English:

npm run grab --- --site=starhubtvplus.com --lang=en
Chinese:

npm run grab --- --site=starhubtvplus.com --lang=zh

the response currently seems to give program data on 4-5 languages in one request.

However, if you want separate guides for each language, you would need to precise which channels file it needs to use, and where to output it.

BellezaEmporium · 2026-02-05T15:50:48Z

You need to change the language directly on the filter.

As an example, the main link (without any change) is this : https://www.tataplay.com/dth/read/core-api/packages/mp/channels/eyJ1c2VyIjp7Imxhbmd1YWdlIjpbXSwiZ2VucmUiOltdfSwiZmlsdGVyRGF0YSI6eyJsYW5ndWFnZSI6W10sImdlbnJlIjpbXX0sImZpbHRlciI6IjAiLCJoZCI6IiJ9

base64 : {"user":{"language":[],"genre":[]},"filterData":{"language":[],"genre":[]},"filter":"0","hd":""}

To filter by language, link "en" to it's equivalent in Tataplay (in your example : {"user":{"language":[],"genre":[]},"filterData":{"language":["English"],"genre":[]},"filter":"1","hd":""} )

StrangeDrVN · 2026-02-05T16:14:13Z

I'm sorry, I was referring to dishtv.in and not tataplay.com regarding guides in other languages.

BellezaEmporium · 2026-02-05T16:15:59Z

Was rechecking the tataplay API in the same stance, still the same as of today, so it seems they've just removed the ones they didn't provide.

BellezaEmporium · 2026-02-05T16:19:13Z

I'm sorry, I was referring to dishtv.in and not tataplay.com regarding guides in other languages.

You would need to add the language in the POST query to "channels".

https://www.dishtv.in/services/epg/channels

Note that it uses Multipart.

It looks like this. Technically, Axios supports multipart (https://axios-http.com/docs/multipart).

StrangeDrVN · 2026-02-05T17:26:57Z

It's likely they made those channels exclusive to satellite but provide the epg.

Was rechecking the tataplay API in the same stance, still the same as of today, so it seems they've just removed the ones they didn't provide.

Regarding dishtv.in, I don't understand the technicalities. Currently I'm using a python script that removes the extra lang data in postprocessing.
even after modifying the language, the response didn't seem to change. even their webpage for epg defaults to english when a different language is selected.
