Work with siliconedust to allow xml guide from silicondust api (for hdhomerun subscribers)

[darylkk]

Many people with HDHomerun devices have a subscription already active with siliconedust.com. Adding a second subscription to schedules direct or similar not an efficient solution. While coding ones own solution is possible with a script like:

#! /bin/bash \ KEY=$(curl http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/discover.json | jq -r .DeviceAuth) \ curl --compressed https://api.hdhomerun.com/api/xmltv?DeviceAuth=$KEY > /path/to/storage/xmltvlist.xml

And aiming Jellyfin at the xmltv.xml will work but it requires jq to be installed and may not work for all. I haven't seen this script mentioned here so I wanted to share to others having HDHometun frustration on EPG guide. The TVHeadend plugin doesnt work or didnt at time of last checking a week ago. Hopefully this helps some. Hoping the devs will be willing to work with Silicon dust and their api on this. Or integrate the above code or similar idea into the app.
