[QUOTE="Lehmden, post: 1226030, member: 109222"] Hi. That's ok and the only part that needs to run. The "Buddy piece" only is the GUI for configuration. So this did not run on daily use at all. The grabbing itself runs completely invisible. In your screenshots you can see the grabber working. The first screenshot was taken while the grabber still was working. The "raw" EPG-Grabber.TVGuide.TVGUIDE_1.xml file has a file date from 7/12/2017 4:07 AM. This means that at this time the data download from tvguide.com is finished. But this is not the "final" file to import. The "final" file is enriched with data from TVDB to get season and episodes numbers and missing descriptions for series. This also is done invisible in background and takes some time. In this case it lasts from 4:07 to 5:33 AM. Most likely due to not very fast internet and/or many channels to enrich. Only this "final" file with name "EPG-Grabber.TVGuide_done_1.xml" is to be imported in the TV Engine (Server). If you are using more than one account at tvguide.com then you will see also "EPG-Grabber.TVGuide_done_2.xml", "EPG-Grabber.TVGuide_done_3.xml",... depending on how much accounts you have set up. On the first screenshot this has a file date from 7/09/2017 (three days ago). On the second screenshot the grabber finally was finished generating nice EPG data for you. As now the "final" file has a file date from 7/12/2017 5:33 AM. Once this file is created (renewed) the TV Engine (TV Server) should import this data into the TV Database... So you need to look at the server log-files if there is an import logged at around 5:33 AM (or a bit later).
