I noticed when i configured WebEPG that suddenly some new channels that I had before updating to 1.1.1 was missing from the list when i try to map the channel. Among others Canal+ Series and Canal+Extra 1, 2 and so on was not there. Can I add them again somehow? I know for sure that they have been there, but now they are missing.. =/

If you mean that there is no grabber available anymore, it means that the grabber had stopped working and was removed.

Otherwise, please explain what you mean, perhaps post a few screen shots.

That is right. The grabber is not there. All the Canal+ extra channels was working before. It seems like I´m on an old grabber list when I try to map the channels, like the new one has dissapeard. Do you know if there is some place that I can download or update the grabber list for my country?

The grabbers are installed by TVServer installer under the following directory in Win7:
C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal TV Server\WebEPG\grabbers

In there there is a subfolder SE for Sweden. There was a recent cleanup of Swedish grabbers to remove non working ones, so now only SVT.se and www.dagenstv.com are left.

See the related thread regarding the cleanup: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/epg-grabbers-tuningdetails-296/new-swedish-grabbers-71148/

Thankyou! So, if i+m missing channels inside the grabbers, then they simply have been removed from the site hosting them? Is that correct?

 

[arion_p]

Either that, or the site changed its layout and:
a) no one bothered to update the grabber to make it compatible with the new layout
or
b) the new layout is very hard or impossible to grab, at least with WebEPG

In both cases above and in case the site is no longer available, it will be removed. If a site no longer provides info for some channels or the info provided is not reliable and there is an alternative site with reliable data, those channels will be removed
