WebEPG Schedule tvguide.xml Write?

EViS · 2008-01-24, 22:58

Is there a feature in MP/TVE3 which will force WebEPG to auto update the tvguide.xml file every 7 days?

Well, in the plugin section you can schedule it to run every day if you want to. If you, for whatever reasons, want a weekly run you can disable it as a plugin and instead use Windows' "Scheduled Tasks" to run it whenever you want to.

Where do I schedule this? In TVE3 or MP? And where within those two?

You schedule this from Control Panel->Scheduled Tasks, so completely outside MP and TV3E.

I know that, I'm referring to the daily scheduling within MP?

Also, my WebEPG writes to a "TVguide-writing.xml" file in the MP xmltv folder and does not overwrite the existing "TVguide.xml"?

Go to plugins and there should be one called WebEPG grabber.

Wrt the file TVGuide.xml not being written this may be caused by Webepg crashing before it has completed. Please check/post the log files in the logs directory.
