Issues with addShow API call

[Jabroni]

I just started doing some tweaks via java jars code. Ive downloaded the dvbepgimport plugin from mfury and decompiled because I wanted to add some functions. Now the issue/question is for some reason when I compile it again with myeclipse (with the sage.jar reference).

Ive nailed now the issue to this API call

  	Object[] temp = {           entry.getCategory(), 
    	         entry.getSubCategory()}; 
 
        Object[] nsArgs = { 
          entry.getName(), 
          Boolean.TRUE, 
          entry.getShortDesc(), 
          entry.getLongDesc(), 
          Integer.valueOf(0), 
          temp,
          0, 0, entry.getRating(), 
          entry.getExpandedRatings(), 
          entry.getYearString(), 
          0, 0, entry.getShowID() };
        Logger.ForceLogMessage(3, entry.getName() + "," + entry.getShortDesc() + "," + entry.getLongDesc() + "," + entry.getCategory() + "," + entry.getSubCategory() + "," + entry.getRating() + "," + entry.getExpandedRatings() + "," + entry.getYearString() + "," + entry.getShowID() );
        Logger.LogMessage(3, "Adding show for id: " + entry.getShowID(), null);
        show = SageTV.api("AddShow", nsArgs);

The log I get is:

08/28/2011 12:07:26.889 INFO: Sport Name2,Short,Long,Sports,Basketball,PG-13,[Ljava.lang.String;@1b7a602,null,EP8084030006
08/28/2011 12:07:26.905 ERROR: Unable to add EPG entry: null Cause: sage.a.e: Error in method reflection of AddShow of java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "EP8084030006" Stack [Ljava.lang.StackTraceElement;@a882e1

Any comment/help would be appreciated

Which API version are you using? Your api args don't seem to match what is documented.

Also, you can try using the sagex-apis which would negate the need to pass an object array. You'd end up calling....

ShowAPI.AddShow(arg1, arg2, arg3...)

And the API would ensure that you are passing the correct # of parameters.

Thanks! sagex did the trick Hopefully I'll have an alternative for EPG for NA users so we can grab it directly from DN satellite stream

I wanted to change the code so I could be allowed to autoconfigure a physical channel to a different logical channel on the lineup and seems it worked now back to get that implemented on dvbe4sage

Since you are using sagex api, there is a development trick that I use for development/testing which allows me to develop on my workstation but connect to the remote sagetv server. This allows me to test/develop and not have to start/stop sagetv just to test code. sagex has the ability to proxy calls to a remote server, so you can work remotely. If you are interesting know more, then let me know, and I can explain how you would go about setting that up.
