WebEPG working but no data in TV Guide

mistakanista · 2006-11-16, 13:41

Hi everyone
I set up WebEPG according to the WiKi instructions and it looks like it works like a breeze - creating the tvguide.xml file and it contains a lot of data.
When going to MyTV->TVGuide the channel names appear but for the programs it shows "no data available".
When trying to import from within TVGuide it says it is importing 7 channels and around 1000 listings or so and after a while it says import complete, but still no program data appears?
Now I fiddled with this for a while but can't seem to get anywhere?
Any help would be really appreciated.

The version installed is MediaPortal 2.1.0.

Are the channel names shown in the EPG the same as the channel names in the tvguide.xml file?

The names in WebEPG need to match the names of the channels in the TV card configuration for the data to appear.

Thanks very much for your reply. You pointed me in the right direction!

The channels names in the TV card configuration looked like they were all matching, but I renamed the channel names at some stage in both TV card config and WebEPG.

So I figured that might have caused some problems. I decided to dump all configured channels and rescan all channels - don't touch them this time - and then just configure the WebEPG again.

When opening MP after that all info showed up in the TVGuide.
