Tv Guide Error
« on: January 30, 2006, 09:33:59 am »
I saved my Yahoo TV Guide page as HTML to the System folder like documentation says.
When I unplug the cable, it updates the ArcLibrary and finds the TV listings, but gives this error "Unknown format".

Any ideas?

What model Archos do you have?  I thought Yahoo support stopped at the AV420.
Anyway, on my 420, you have to save the calendar in the WEEK view for it to be recognized by the Archos...works fine in the 420.

My model is AV500, but the manual still describes this feature.
And yes, I tried WEEK, and it doesn't work.

Did you ever manage to get the AV500 to use the Yahoo calendar? I've just bought an AV580 and am having the same problem with unrecognised format. I followed the instructions exactly (week view, save as HTML only).

I might have the answer to all your problems and a solution to the main
problem - the unintuative scheduling interface in the ARCHOS!

When I got my ARCHOS I was really disappointed with how difficult it was
to programme the schedule. This is why I created RTIntegrator. This
application allows you to use online TV Listings providers websites,
Yahoo, ZAP2it.com and RadioTimes.com (UK) to create a personalised
recording schedule and have it automatically downloaded to your ARCHOS
in under 15 seconds!

Here is a quick summary of features.

- Works with the ARCHOS DV series AV400, AV500 and AV700
- Works in USA, Canada, UK and Europe - other countries to follow.
- Simple to use "point-and-click" scheduling
- FREE TV listings over 100+ TV channels
- Saves time! Program all 20 slots in under 15 seconds!
- Allows you to record many more programmes that you thought possible.
- Identify and fix schedule conflicts before uploading
- NEW in v2.2 is the intuative first-time user wizard.

Have a look at www.RTIntegrator.com <http://www.rtintegrator.com/> and download a trial now.

Have a look and it WILL change the way you use your ARCHOS completely!
