Finding the xmltv.dtd file!!! (1 Viewer)

[tonewheelkev]

For the life of me....can't work out how to get this file.

MP Wiki says...
"A xmltv.dtd from the official xmltv association :Xmltv wiki download the last archive, and put the xmltv.dtd file where is stored your tvguide.xml."

Followed the link....looked around....searched for .dtd files....dead end.

What/where is the 'last archive'...?

This question (or variations on it) seem to come up over and over again.
<sigh>
(Did you search the forum before posting?)

MediaPortal includes the xmltv.dtd file you need in the default XMLTV folder (which is c:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal TV Server\xmltv).
If for some unknown reason, you are not willing or able to use the file that we provide, you can acquire an alternative from the latest XMLTV release:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/xmltv/files/xmltv/

This is the "last archive" referred to in the wiki. "Archive" because they are zip or tar.bz2 files, which are archive file formats. You will have to open the archive and find the xmltv.dtd file within. That should not be too hard, as it's in the top level directory.

If all else fails, a short google search would have told you that you can directly download the file from many places on the internet, including:
http://xmltv.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/xmltv/xmltv/xmltv.dtd
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/M...gine3/TVLibrary/TVServer.Base/xmltv/xmltv.dtd

Note, I have now updated the wiki to clarify:
http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_...tion/TV-Server_Configuration/13_Plugins/XmlTv

Hopefully that was the page you were looking at (you didn't specify!), and the clarification meets your approval.
