DUGG bad XML (1 Viewer)

[broadscott]

When I use DUGG to import the EPG and create the tvguide.xml file, MP won't import it at all and gives the error bad XML (file can't start with "." or something). Anyone else had this problem? An fixes?

Make sure you have the following line in your Dugg.ini file

mode=mp

If your Dugg.ini file has the line "mode=mce" then you will end up with a TV guide that MP can't read.

I have mode=mp in the .ini file - thats why I am not sure what is causing the problem.

I just kicked off another Dugg grab event, and it looks like he's upgraded it again. Maybe check that you have the autoupdate line in your ini file and run Dugg again.

The latest version ( at this writing anyway ) is 5.65

Autoupdate on, upgraded to new version, still didn't work. I have given up. I am using the GetEpg vbs script now (with a little bash script to copy the output xmltv.xml file to tvguide.xml, since it didn't seem to do that).

I know this is not very helpful, but I ran DUGG this morning, and just imported the tvguide.xml file into MediaPortal, without any errors.....

At what stage in the process do you get the error - where does the error appear (is it a DUGG error message, or a MediaPortal error message)?

It is a Media Portal error. I get it when I go to TV Guide in Media Portal (not setup) and press info (F3) -> import TV Guide. It them tells me that it can't import it and that the xml file is invalid.

I got the same problem a couple of days ago, I cracked open the xml and saw html code inside some of the description tags. I'm not at home right now, but I could probably post something tomorrow if it would help?

I too am getting the same problem, is Angusman aware of it?
