[QUOTE="spleisher, post: 392743, member: 89298"] I actually aready removed all the channels and scanned them back in per the VERY SHORT directions included on the doanload page for the SD plugin. I did that on the card configuration page under /TV Servers/%servername%/%cardname% There's no way that I can see from the SD plugin to do much from there other than enable it, and then wait for it to do its thing. In my case that really seems to be nothing. I don't want this to sound bad, but the trouble with a lot of these little plug-ins is that there is really NO real documentation to be found, except for some very short steps to take to "run" the plugin. I know it's open source, and you get what you pay for, so I don't mean to sound like I'm looking a gift-horse in the mouth here... but if people really do care about the apps they develop and want them to be sueful for people, there really has to be some docs. Sorry for the rant... Anyway, let's assume for a second that the SD plugin DID work for a second. WHere would I see the results? Would the challes in TV-Server config just have information next to them as opposed to just "unknown" under the "provider" comlumn? Od I have to jst do a drum-roll and open MP to see if something is in there? Are there other settings in TV-Server config that have to be set a certain way for the SD plugin to work? Like, for example, on the "EPG" tab of the General Settings menu. The trouble with the SD plugin, and really all of the ones I have tried (Like WebEPG, coupled with the XmlTv plugin, is that I just feel like I'm taking a shot in the dark. I don't feel like there is any path to go down in the troubleshooting process. Anyway, thanks again. Bazzz, when you say "remove all existing channels"... do you mean delete them from the "TV Channels" menu right underneath the TV Servers menu??? If I do that, I have to re-scan them in with my tuner(s). I've done that more than a couple of times, and it doesn't seem to do any good. Thanks.... [/QUOTE]
