Hi,

First, thank you for your job  :-)  .

I've just installed QPython 3 and I have to open a compressed xz file to get an EPG (TV programs). On the Windows PC, I use lzma library but it seems it doesn't exist in QPython and I haven't seen it in the QPython libraries (http://www.qpython.org/en/guide_libraries.html). I've tried with tarfile library but it returns "unknown compression type 'xz'" while there is an option in this library to read this type of file.

I've first installed QPython 3.6 but I couldn't start it, then I removed it and installed QPython3.

Have you a solution please?

Thank you.
Jean-Louis
