[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1303616, member: 141969"] In the UK, our TV signals contain within them a 7-day EPG for all channels. This is what the "DVB EPG" support in "TV Server Config" receives. It also works for other countries in Europe, and elsewhere in the world, such as Australia and New Zealand. Unfortunately... My understanding is that the USA DVB broadcasts do not include a 7-day EPG. So there is nothing for the MP TV Server to receive. :( In the USA (and possibly Canada), you need to use an EPG that is downloaded from the internet. The one that is usually recommended is "Schedules Direct", but it is not free (about $35 per year, I think). Having downloaded the EPG from Schedules Direct, you then use the MP "XmlTv" plugin to import the EPG into TV Server. There may be other internet EPGs available for the USA, possibly some of which are free, but you will need to research those for yourself. -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
