I am using Gracenote video services for the programming guide in my application. Within the guide, I display channel logos along with the channel name and number. In the past, I have retrieved channel logo URLs by using the URL_GET API query with the mode set to TVCHANNEL_IMAGE. Within the body of the query, I would include the Gracenote IDs for a set of channels (found in a TVCHANNEL_LOOKUP response). Below is an example query.

<QUERIES>
<AUTH>
<CLIENT>XXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX</CLIENT>
<USER>XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX</USER>
</AUTH>
<QUERY CMD="URL_GET">
<MODE>TVCHANNEL_IMAGE</MODE>
<GN_ID>251535939-B76CB793D827E8BE713DAEB9675ADED4</GN_ID>
<GN_ID>251539612-E293EAF3F3164B292AD102532BCB9AF9</GN_ID>
</QUERY>
</QUERIES>

The response to the query would return URLs that I could then download the logos from. This was working fine up until one week ago. Now, the response returns with no match.

<RESPONSES>
 <RESPONSE STATUS="NO_MATCH">
 </RESPONSE>
</RESPONSES>

Has the API for retrieving channel logos changed? If so, how and what is the new method for getting channel logos? Ideally, I would like to continue downloading logos on demand through an API similar to URL_GET.

  • Your query appears to be well-formed according to the Gracenote docs: https://developer.gracenote.com/sites/default/files/eyeq-webapi-ref.pdf – Brian Hadaway Feb 26 '14 at 01:41

Are you still able to reproduce this? I get a valid response back using your query example
