tvguide-writing

bentrod · 2007-04-04, 21:26

Gday All.

I'm a bit stuck following the instructions for setting up the epg on this page http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/Med...alSetup_WebEPG

I get to the step below:

Quote:

The WebEPG program has no GUI. This means you will not get a notification when its finished. However you can have a look at the XMLTV Folder in the MediaPortal directory. While WebEPG is downloading data you will see a TVguide-writing.XML file, when its finished it will be renamed to TVguide.XML.

The problem is my tvguide file gets stuck in the writing faze, my file stays at TVguide-writing.

I'm running mp version 0.2.2.0 on Vista 32.

All other aspects of MP work great, just this.

Cheers

Just to add, I'm only tring to get epg for 2 channels at present after I reinstalled MP. When I get those to working I will add the rest.

It's a prob with Vista, was fixed in recent SVNs.

Thx Arfster, am trying an SVN now.

Well that worked a treat.
It's so much better with an EPG : )

Thx Arf.
