Update: Problem solved! The electronic program guides (tvguide.xml) have been successfully transferred to MediaPortal. The issue stemmed from the corruption of one or both of the mc2xml.dat and/or mc2xml.exe files, for an unknown reason. Consequently, even though the tvguide.xml file appeared...

Thanks, maybe someone more familiar with this content can help me from here :-)

Additional information. While browsing the MP2 directories, I found two references to xmltv: a) ...\MP2-Server\Plugins\SlimTv.Service3\XmlTvImport.dll b) ...\MP2-Server\Plugins\SlimTv.Service3\ProgramData\ProgramData.zip\xmltv In b, the xmltv directory is in a .zip file that contains two...

I thought the XmlTV plugin was installed with MP2. I checked in the programs installed on Windows, but I couldn't find it. So, my question might seem naive, but where should I place the contents of the xmltv-1.4.0-win64.zip file in the MP2 directories? Did not find anything in the wiki.

The only log I’m aware of is the “import status report” visible at the bottom of the image I posted. mc2xml doesn’t offer a detailed logging option. I run a script daily to update the tvguide.xml file (which seems to work properly) and pipe the program log to a file (mc2xml.exe… > mc2xml.log)...

I was having a problem with the EPG on MP2 1.4.1 (although it used to run without any issues for a while). So I installed MP2 1.5 hoping that would solve the problem, but it did not. I use ScheduleDirect which works fine. I grabbed EPG using mc2xml.exe which updates the tvguide.xml file, but...

Just tried them and did not see significant improvement :-( Thanks for having tried. Let me know if I should go with UNC.

@morpheus_xx, are you looking to fix the dlls and try them again, or am I better off using UNC paths?

Well, I can't do the test yet because when I replace the .dll with each of the new ones, my Client loses his view of the server folders (Recordings, Videos, Series, Movies) :-( Replace the original one in the MP2-Client folder and I get back the view on the server folders. And I did not change...

Yep, I should be able to test that over the following week. But I understand that I should first bypass the "remote resource bridge" by using UNC right?

Well that's sad because I needed Mediaportal to play TV recordings on different PCs :-( Recorded TV shows play fine on my server (client + server setup), but watching them on another computer (client only setup) is not an option because there is too much lag. I can watch HD movies over wifi...

I'll crate a new tread cause this one is tagged as solved and it is not the same version of Mediaportal

Well, the problem is back :-( Recorded TV shows play fine on my server (client + server setup), but watching them on another computer (client only setup) is not an option because there is too much lag. I watch HD movies via wifi with no problem on both computers. I'm on wifi 6, my server and...

Thanks again, you made my day!

Thanks, @ge2301 just offered me the same trick I’ll watch the latest operations (which might have hung) the next time it happens.
