Hi there,
I have an EPG that I wrote that does FTA and Fox for me. It is a mix of batch files etc that runs each night. It lets you download multiple days, adjust individual channels time offset, rename channels etc. Requires a free account at oztivo.com.
If you so anything to improve it drop me a line, I have been using it trouble free for 3 years now.

Thanks to mm1352000 I was able to work out how to import a shepherd EPG into MP seamlessly so Im really pleased about that as the shepherd grabber is just awesome !!

My only concern is a decent theme and the ability for MP to grab my movies and music fanart and metadata which it couldn't when I tried last

A big win for me would be to find a way to integrate tv series downloading automation with full fanart and metadata

Not sure how far you have proceeded with this.

I have MP 1.1.3 running and have used the StreamedMP Skin.

I am using Moving pictures and mptvseries to catalogue all of my downloaded content and it is working beautifully for all of these with fanart etc etc

I am about to tackle doing the same with Recorded TV - i suspect this will not be as easy - there will be a need to move the content to the correct folder and with the correct name - most of which you could automate by using the XML files - however these appear to be populated by the content of the EPG - so you will need good and consistent EPG content for this to come close.

I personally find that the majority of my watching of live TV is sport or transient stuff like news - most Movies and TV series are available for download in better def than we get them delivered in OZ

Hi, it looks like the Client's server connection settings got corrupted somehow and were reset, hopefully this is an easy fix.

The only changes I see are: Updated Marcel Groothuis version of the plugin to now support Media Portal 2.5 I can't say anything about the functionality of this plugin, I don't use TV Part, but if there are any changes that can be simply transferred, then I can try. But I can't give any guarantees.
