Greetings Fellow MP'rs.
Does anyone out there use tvguide.com to access TV listings..? :unsure: If so, can you advise on how it is set up for use with MediaPortal..? I havebeen using Zap2XML / GraceNote but that just died (for me alone seemingly) and I am out of listings. :( Would appreciate...
Hello there @Noise672
Is NewZap2xml_(5 or 6) still working for you..? Mine died but I see no one but me squeaking about it. Let me know if yours is still working or if you switched to an alternate means for EPG. Thanks. (y)
Your observation is correct mate. Last time this happened the fires of hell invaded all shopping centers... this time I seem to be the only one in need - which is quite uncomfortable at best. I guess I should look for an alternate solution until and if other MP users realize they have no guide...
Howdy Y'all...
I'm reposting my plea with a new snapshot of the failed run on my actual viewing machine. Zap2XML/Gracenote is such a wonderful tool - which is now broke. There are only a few days of TV Guide left. I'm hoping someone smarter than me is looking into this. :( Much Thanks.
Greetings to all Denizens of the land of MediaPortal...
It seems our Zap2XML/GraceNote access is broken again. I (as many others) have been using the latest NewZap2xml_6 and it has worked flawlessly. A few days ago it all died. I wonder if anyone is working a solution to save the masses. I...
@antidot - Again you have come to the aid and salvation of the many. :) You have without call or reward selflessly saved for so many the pain and agony of ungettable listings. (n) Perhaps I dare conceive, you might have again single handedly saved so many from the thought of mass suicide...
Aha..! they didn't hide or break it... they renamed it. Sneaky buggers.! This one I believe is for one of them Pearly Coders to redo the 'NewZap2XML_5.exe' critter for Windows. Unfortunately, that is way over my level of Consciousness. (n) But, having witnessed last months' response (Zap2it...
Well.., isn't this precious..? Gracenote has broken or hidden their listing site > "https://tvlistings.gracenote.com/grid-affiliates.html?aid=lat" without even the courtesy of a 404 or some other blow-it-out-your-hiney message - so sad. Speaking for myself and many others I reckon... hoping the...
o_O Only a gifted few on this forum would know what you are writing about above. Is this a Windows or Linux thing..? And where would this line of code be plugged in were it a Windows thing..? I suspect it is not a Windows solution... :(
Well Kids... The sky is blue again (I hope). I was finally able to run the new Zap2XML_5 file in my Win11 test machine where I kept failing. After a few days of headaches it turns out one MUST add an exception not only in Defender but also whatever extra AV program you might be running. In my...
Howdy Folks, now that I am breathing again on this issue I can put two cents in. The issue with Defender or other AV police seems to happen to me on my Win11 test machine. When I did a wholesale port of the files over to my active Win10 machine it all worked 100% without a hitch. Could be a...
Bonjour Mes Ami, Friends, Amigos, Compadres... whatever. :) Success At Last. To all you smarter-than-me-people thank you for your help. After spinning my wheels for days I finally solved my problem... WINDOWS11 - Yup, the bastard :mad: .. Something was broke in it and I was not aware.
Figured...
Greetings voip-engineer007
Than you for your input on this issue. I have attached snips of my environment and errors. As you can see, the files you noted as possibly missing are there. There could be something else missing I'm not aware as other users show files I don't have but don't know if...
Hello Again Friend -> Noise672
Still chugging along here trying to figure this out. That you have yours working and I continue to fail is a clear indication of some level of incompetence on my part fer sure. :( I have mirrored your environment (I think) and set my bat file with the arguments...
Hey Friend... not doing well here trying to get this zap2xml_5 going. What parms are you using in your bat file to run zap2xml_5..? These are what I use...
NewZap2xml_5 -u username@lycos.com -p password -d 14 -o tvguide.xml -i C:\ZAP2XML Install\Icons -I
I get an 'access denied' at runtime...
