Automate with TV Guide

TV Guide can provide five optional sensors in Home Assistant. Use them to react to the next reminder, saved programmes or EPG refresh status and build your own automations.

  • sensor.tv_guide_next_reminder – next scheduled reminder
  • sensor.tv_guide_bookmark_count – number of saved programmes that have not ended
  • sensor.tv_guide_reminder_count – number of outstanding reminders
  • sensor.tv_guide_last_update – time of the last successful EPG update
  • binary_sensor.tv_guide_refresh_running – shows whether EPG data is currently being refreshed

Sensors are disabled by default and can be enabled individually under Settings → Advanced → Available sensors.
