[QUOTE="Jasmeet_181, post: 1236840, member: 56089"] Which grabber have you been trying to setup? If it's EPG Collector too, then to get the basics up and running: [LIST] [*]Download and Install [URL='https://sourceforge.net/projects/epgcollector/']EPG Collector[/URL] [*]Open EPGCentre. [*]File/Create Collection Parameters. [*]Select UK Sky TV, then click Ok. [*]Click on the output tab and note where the XML path is (must be named TVGuide.xml). [*]File/Save As..., Save the .ini [*]Run/Collect EPG Data..., Yes, wait a few minutes and there should be a message telling you that it was successful, click OK and close EPG Centre. [*]Go to where TVGuide.xml was saved and check that there is programme data in it. [*]Right click Save link as on [URL='https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MediaPortal/MediaPortal-1/master/TvEngine3/TVLibrary/TVServer.Base/xmltv/xmltv.dtd']this link to an xmltv.dtd file[/URL] [*]Copy the saved xmltv.dtd to the same folder that TVGuide.xml is in. [*]Open TV-Server Configuration and go Plugins, disable Sky UK Grabber and enable XmlTv. [*]Go to Manual control click Stop Service, then Start Service. [*]Expand Plugins and click on XmlTv. [*]In the General tab, give it the location for the folder containing TVGuide.xml [*]In the Mapping tab select a group (eg. All Channels) and wait for it to load. [*]Sort out any mappings you need to from the drop downs under Guide channel (it should be mostly green/exact match anyway). [*]Click Save on the top-right. [*]Now either: [/LIST] [INDENT][LIST=1] [*]Go back to the General tab, click on Import and wait again (the TV-Server Configuration window will be unresponsive), then click on OK to exit. [*]Click on OK to exit TV-Server Configuration. Go back into EPGCentre, File Change Collection Parameters..., select the .ini you made, then do Run/Collect EPG Data... again. MP will detect an update and import in the background. [/LIST][/INDENT] After you've done this you can move on scheduling the collection and correcting your ITV/ITV +1/ ITV HD/STV in EPGCentre as they have non-unique channel names. Some further information on XmlTv (including screenshots) is in the wiki - [URL='https://www.team-mediaportal.com/wiki/display/MediaPortal1/XmlTv+Plugin']XmlTv Plugin[/URL] [/QUOTE]
