An electronic programming guide (EPG) displays the scheduling information for the current and upcoming broadcast program on your website and apps.
To input Livestream EPG we have two options:
Add your existing schedule in XML format - this is typically used when you share your channel as stream and its associated schedule as a separate XML
Create an EPG schedule - this is typically used when you are creating the schedule for the stream using Ventuno's Scheduler.
