[QUOTE="Lehmden, post: 1210474, member: 109222"] Hi. Thanks for testing. We are working heavily to provide direct download of TVGuide.com EPG data without the need of WebGrab+Plus or zap2xml. Those downloaded data will have matching timezone settings when you set up your provider properly on tvguide.com website. There most likely will be no need for any time compensation in XMLTV plugin at all. We also wanted to use proper language while comparing with TVDB. I can imagine there are lots of Spanish channels available at many providers all over the USA. When you compare such channels with TVDB the search for those channels has to be done in Spanish if you want proper results. All English speaking channels need to be searched in English of course... Up to now you only can set one language to search TVDB and this would be English in your case. On this topic we are also working right now. But we will need another week or two before we will have something new to test. You're the first who will get the new test version then, promised... WebGrab is and always will be very complicated. Not only for users but also for a tool like EPG-Buddy which want to make use of it. This is to be expected if you see all the many, many different websites that WebGrab has to support all over the world. So no blame for that. It's simply a fact. If ever possible we want to get the data without WebGrab for this reason. When it is possible the direct download of the EPG data also is much faster most of the times. TVGuide.com program listings for one day is downloaded in less than two seconds, even over here in Germany... [/QUOTE]
