How does it work?This applet downloads from servers Rytec EPG (program wget) in the form of compresed *.gz .Extracts file. I renamed tvguide.xml
MediaPortal Takes EPG using plugin XMLTV


Wget and gzip is a command line program.
You start it from the command prompt, either command.com in Windows 9x/Me or cmd.exe in Windows 2000/XP/windows7

Tried it but it Downloads EPG Data from Year 2011. (Germany)

sorry about that,you need to change the server address www.xmltvepg.nl/rytecxmltvskyde.gz

del rytecxmltvskyde.gz
del tvguide.xml
wget www.xmltvepg.nl/rytecxmltvskyde.gz
Gzip.exe -d rytecxmltvskyde.gz
rename rytecxmltvskyde  tvguide.xml

fix in 1,3 version

 

[Brudertac]

Very fast Download now!

Is this the right place to ask questions about this? (Hope so!)

I've installed exactly as described above:

1. download file Crossepg - Rytec graber EPG for MediaPortal v1.3.zip unpack file to drive c:
2. Extracted xmltv_dtd.zip to C:\MP-EPG\xmltv_dtd
3. RUN C:\MP-EPG\Rytec Benelux XMLTV.bat

Now in TV-server configuration, I ticked Plugin XMLtv, and set it to the correct folder C:\MP-EPG\

I forced a grab and 1313 programs were downloaded, so I was very happy. However, they don't show in my TV-guide.

What should I do to ensure that the tv-guide is actually shown in MP? Do I need another plugin, apart from xmltv?

(Tried restarting the tv-service a couple of times, whilst (un)ticking plugin xmltv). Didn't help.

Extra information: I've tried using webEPG before trying this, this resulted in some information for channels abroad (like BBC). Then I unticked this plugin in TV-server config, but the data is still shown in the TV-guide.

You mast Mappings channel names.
select gorup->and select your channel group name -> load/refresh

• ID: Unknown.
• Tuning Channel: Shows the channel names as reported by the TV tuner (not the channel name you may have provided under TV Channel setup, so especially for analog tuners this name may not be accurate).
• Guide Channel: Shows channels from the XMLTV file, autodetected as good as possible.
• The next column shows how well the data in your tvguide.xml matches your channel configuration::
  • Green is an exact match
  • Yellow is a partial match
  • Red is no match
  • White is already mapped.
• Visible in Guide: These checkboxes are informative only, they cannot be changed. Their value corresponds to the checkboxes on the TV Channel setup.

The Partial matchcheckbox can be checked to help get the maximum number of channels automatically mapped and then unchecked for subsequent scans where there are likely to be only a few new channels.
You can fix any incorrect matches using the drop down control in the Guide Channel column.
The Export button writes the names of the selected XMLTV channels to a text file. (The use of this button is not totally clear, since there is no corresponding Import button, and the file written does not contain enough information to make a useful import.)
Hit the Save button after you've made changes to the mappings.

 

[SherlockS]

Thanks, did that as well but forgot to mention it. The mappings appear to be correct.

Can you post your log tv.log
