Summary:
Hello,
In MP 1.0.2 there was the wegepg.exe responsible for grabbing the epg. Sometimes the EPG hasn´t been grabbed completly, so some stations were missing. Before I just ran the webepg.exe to rebuild the EPG. After that the EPG has been grabbed completly.
NOW, Webepg is built-in in the TV-Server. It is possible to force a grab by clicking on the "Grab Now!" Button.
BUT there are two problems with the new "solution":
1) As I already discussed in the Bug-Section, this works as desigend, because when you click on grab now it is a function to test the grabbing in general.
2) I think it would be very useful, to have a possibility to start the EPG-Grab somehow "externally" like before. As mentioned above, we could run the grab by starting the webepg.exe.
For example I´ve got a button on my TV-Remote where I could start that program and so I could force the grab without touching my HTPC with Keyboard and Mouse. I think it would be much more useful if we could start it again from "outside". Maybe there could be implemented a "keyboard-function" or something like that where the user can run the webepg grab directly in mediaportal!?
Thanks for your attention
