I'm running MP 1.30 on a Windows 7 system, and have a Blackgold DVBT2 TV card. If I want a 1-week UK TV guide which includes all of the DVBT2 HD channels can I get this from WebEPG or do I need XMLTV?

    MP supports UK Freeview HD EPG grabbing off-air, so you don't need to do anything (other than making sure DVB EPG grabbing is enabled) to get a 7 day EPG.

    Just tick BBC One HD in the EPG grabber and that will pull a 7 day guide for all channels over the air.

    I tried setting the windows screensaver to power off the display on my MP1 HTPC but in fact it only blanks the screen ("no video signal") on the TV I suspect the AVR has something to do with that. If I manually put the TV only into standby when TV is playing but paused then on wakeup I could not immediately take it out of pause and...

    Good shout! Working when setting the network to private. Windows 7 firewall certainly doesn't behave like it does in Windows 10/11. Saved me a lot of time having to debug the code. Thanks for the tip!

    Thanks for that. I found "Chnlineup" in the Sky grab and "FreesatEPG" in the Freesat grab and enabled them both in EPG Collector, and also set them as the EPG grabber for radio in MP2. But here's the odd thing: The next time I opened the XMLTV EPG mapper (where you map actual channels to channels available in the EPG), the radio...

    Thank you! I guess I was overthinking it.
