How use WebEPG with Media Portal 1 and TV Server

[SwissBuster]

Just noticed that the WebEPG log file has been changed (attached). It has data on all my channels and seems to be doing something successfully. However, I stil have no EPG data in MediaPortal and can't find either webepg.xml or tvguide.xml.

The log file sugests it is opening a file at: C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\WebEPG\WebEPG.xml.
It is also looking for WebEPG at C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal and xmltv at C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\xmltv\

Any ideas?

Hi,

C:\Documents and Settings folder doesn’t exist anymore in Vista. It was replaced by the C:\Users and C:\ProgramData. Vista uses symbolic links pointing to these new folders for compatibility reasons

Anyway, webepg.xml and TV-guide.xml are there. I can't tell you now the path because I'm not in face of my Vista with MP installation PC. But I think you should skip the virtual "document and settings" folder and go "all users" etc. Or use the search function in C: with advanced options (including system folders).

Thanks, Zorg.

I started typing a reply that you were wrong, and then I found the xml files under C:\Users. I still don't trust the search function in Vista... anyway, I got webepg running, and will post a new step-by-step thread whilst this is still fresh in my mind.

The file locations should be:

XP

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Team MediaPortal

Vista

C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal
