Theres actually quite a few and all of them would be found in this EPG forum. https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/search.php?mode=results

You can use WebEPG which comes with MP built in. You can also use another grabber called TUGG written by angusmann on these forums, or a variety of other MCE2005 ones (ie Bladerunner Pro or FreeXMLTV).

FreeXMLTV doesn't work for MediaPortal - it doesn't output the list of channels in the XMLTV file, only the programs.

PM Angusmann and ask him to send you the link for DUGG.
This is the best EPG grabber i've tested, and am currently using, for Australia.

Another vote for DUGG.
I actually just found a neat setting in it today...you can rename the channels

so now mine are called, NINE, ABC, SBS, TEN and PRIME instead of the long ones that the stations call them

I found DUGG extremely simple to setup.
I've tried WebEPG before, but It did not help me a lot for the regional channels, which is something I require for my 2nd HTPC.

DUGG doesn't have a lot of documentation, but reading the instructions and having a look at the default ini file, you will see it is very simple to setup.

I'm running DUGG to give me both FTA and Foxtel both with its own time ofset in one EPG listing.

my 2 cents
