Sync Calendar to Other Apps/Calendars/Schedules!

Edit Subject

How about being able to sync the SideReel calendar with our own life calendar?
Plus we could all take that on-the-go on our cellphones and/or smartphones!
SideReel rocks!

Thanks for the idea Nago! I think this would be a cool feature, though we don't have it planned yet. What calendar(s) in particular would you like it to sync with?

  Hi guys! This is a dated thread, and we actually already have this feature (the "subscribe" think next to both the homepage calendar and your tracker calendar), though it's a bit buggy. We're currently working on a more streamlined fix!

  I don't know if it helps, but this can be achieved by a PHP script that would adjust the time zones on the generated calendar based on the user's timezone. Just some food for thought...
  
  Also, would it be possible to remove that excessive "Watch..." at the beginning of the name of the show? It seems superfluous, and quite obvious as to our intent, and instead, perhaps add the link to the Episode on SideReel in the event description! This would be a great addition!!

Myself, I use my Nokia calendar every day!

But of course we'd have to see what everyone else uses.
I'm guessing Google Calendar is the top choice!

It would be cool if we could setup tivo integration between sidereel and tivo.com

They do not have an API but it should be fairly easy to scrape a call to the online scheduling website.

I am a programmer and I can help with this if needed.

  (you're right - this is in the wrong topic - we'll make sure to make it it's own topic).
  
  Very cool idea btw and thanks for the offer to help. Can you give us a bit more detail regarding how you'd like to see SideReel and your Tivo interacting?

  On the Tivo website (and also mobile website mobile.tivo.com) it is possible to browse tv listings and for each listing, there are actions available such as "Record this episode" and "Get a Season Pass". Clicking on these buttons will send a request to the Tivo to record the show. The problem with the Tivo website is that is is very basic and will only list the shows 2 weeks before they air, whereas Sidereel knows about the shows a long time in advance.
  Also on tivo.com (not mobile) you can view and arrange season passes. Season passes do not automatically expire when a show is cancelled or reaches its finale. Last time I had to go in and manually remove Lost so the Tivo would stop recording re-runs.
  
  What I would like to see in Sidereel's Tivo section are features that will manage my recordings for me, based on the shows I start tracking maybe 2 months in advance. The Season Pass request will be added on Tivo 2 weeks in advance (date at which the show appears in the listings).
  Sidereel could also import/sync with the tivo website so that the shows I request a season pass for are automatically tracked on Sidereel.
  
  Thank you.

  Thanks for the additional detail, that helps. We are investigating integrations akin to what you've described and will definitely approach Tivo as that process evolves. In parallel, if you could make the same suggestion to the Tivo team(http://research.tivo.com/suggestions/..., that would certainly help get the conversation going!
  
  Thanks again and keep the ideas coming.

my idea was actually different from this. I am talking about having a button on your website that will launch a recording/season pass on the tivo

I'm happy to have calendar on my desktop. But it would be really useful to make full tutorial for noobs about it, I spent like half hour to figure out how to add it to desktop. Like if there was written "if you want to add it to desktop, you must have "x" software/gadget to open it with.

Dear sir/madam,

I'm a big fan of Sidereel, in particular the Show Calendar section. So first, thank you
for that!

Now my suggestion is, I'd really like to see a Sidereel Calendar iGoogle gadget,
since I'm a big fan of that too and it would be even easier for me (and I think
everyone else too) to keep track since I only have to log in once (to iGoogle).

I hope that you'll like this idea and ofcourse that it is possible to create this.

Thanks in advance,

Bjorn

When I subscribe to my calendar via my Google calendar, it's works flawlessly except the timezone is off by 4hours and I can't change it. It's correct on my profile and on my google account, but it's greyed out when I go to change the setting for that specific Sidereel calendar... any ideas?

OMG It just hit me, since Sidereel is still in the process of creating an app for android devices, yes why not integrate the calendar w/ google calendar? Has there been an update for this inquiry yet?

  Hi Jose,
  We currently have a "subscribe" feature that allows for your SideReel calendar to be imported into Google Calendar, but it's still in need of a little fine-tuning. You can test it out by going to your tracker calendar and clicking the "subscribe" button in the top right.

  Excellent, I have a question though. When I click on subscribe it just says "Subscribe to my show calendars" and than an X to close the pop up. No other information.
  
  I tried it though my android phone, IE, Chrome and firefox browser on 2 different PCs.
