Hello,

has anyone run the frab plugin with pretalx xml? the xml is frab compatible, e.g. [https://pretalx.com/fossgis2019/schedule/export/schedule.xml](https://pretalx.com/fossgis2019/schedule/export/schedule.xml)

You should be able to test that: Install that on a Pi, [login with SSH](https://info-beamer.com/doc/device-configuration#activatessh) and see if `/space/root/frab/schedule.json` exists and the values in it look sensible. If not, have a look at the output of `logread | grep service.root.frab` to see eventual parsing errors.

thanks for the help.

there is no parse error in the log, i took the old schedule.xml from the congress and changed it. see “[hosted.py] sending ‘root/frab/day:1’”, but it doesn’t show anything. in between with the original file i saw “no more talks”.

Is `/space/root/frab/schedule.json` filled with the conference events?

Stupid question, but did you configure how to actually show the schedule? Did you add the frab tile to a page (Insert Page \> Plugin \> Frab \> Select “All Talks”)?

Great. It works now. Must have been my configuration. Use infobeamer for the first time.
