[QUOTE="RonD, post: 976004, member: 117536"] Hi Canuck, I'm south of the 49th parallel, so take my help with a grain of salt. I've been playing with webgrabplus trying to understand how to get this setup. I was able to create the needed setup for my SF Bay area channels and used the same steps to generate some Toronto setup files as follows, Downloaded the SiteIni.Pack_.11.10 file and followed the instructions in SiteIni.Pack.11.10\Networks\tvguide.com.no-provider_info.howtoaddprovider.txt, and used the "tvguide.com.no-provider.ini" as a starting point. The tvguide.com webpage shows a lot of Canada cable TV options, for Toronto they showed the following <option value="890756">Toronto - Bell Fibe TV</option> <option value="70478">Toronto - Rogers Cable TV</option> <option value="892902">Toronto - Rogers Cablesystems - Analog</option> I picked Toronto - Bell Fibe TV, 890756, and created a tvguide.com.Toronto_BellFibe.ini file and used this to generate a tvguide.com.Toronto_BellFibe.channels.xml file with a list of TV stations. I then setup the main WebGrab++.config.xml config file for the 1st 3 channels in the list. When I run this with webgrabplus it generated listings for those 3 channels so I think it works. You will need to copy/paste the channel entries from the channels.xml file into the config.xml file for the channels you want to grab. Delete the channels I tested if they are not interesting. This is setup for "current day" with <timespan>0</timespan>. I suggest you add your channels and run with "0" to confirm it works for the channels you want. When this looks good you can increase the the time from 0 to 7 to get 1 weeks of EPG data. The zip file has the files I used for Toronto. I also have the extra "mdb" processing disabled, I could not get that working for my US stations. Let me know if this works. [/QUOTE]
