Hi,
I've been forced to temproarily setup my client (bedroom) HTPC as my main unit (which will probably be a blessing as I never get TV3Engine installed to work properly. But that's another issue). I installed my two 150MCE analogue tuner cards into the case. I ghosted an image prior to doing any mods. Installed the drivers (downloaded from here Lite CD Release 2.7.25057 is ready for download) & everything was fine.
Entering MP -ver. 0.2.3.0RC1 (I will upgrade to the final when I get things sorted here)- I setup the tuner cards & mapped tuned TV channels. I also attempted setup of Reven's XMLTVNZ grabber. I downloaded the latest tvguide.xml from my batch file setup with the stations I watch. I enabled WebEPG in plugins & configured by importing the channels tuned on my Hauppauge cards, although the only info shown was the channel number which I renamed to the identifying TV station names & saved.
I setup the parameters to tvguide.xml in 'program guide' in the 'television' section of MP configuration & used 'run grabber'.
After the command box closed, I noticed a second listing of TV channels with the names of the assigned stations in the 'TV Channels' section. These stations all had a frequency of 0. If I unchecked my original tuned stations with the frequency numbers, I was unable to get any TV channel reception within MP itself.
But leaving all the original & EPG captured channels checked left them also visible inside the 'program guide' of MP.
I have had to do this three times in all as after playing with the configuration trying to achieve the above, I could not any tuners recognised inside MP & had to Ghost back.
Have I done the setup right? If so, is there any way to remove the numbered channels from the 'program guide'? Rather than have the program listings with one section of grabbed info & another displaying 'no data available'.
Questions:
1) can I delete the named TV stations added from using the XMLTVNZ grabber?
2) if I do, will they reappear everytime I use the grabber?
I will post a clarifying screenshot when my HTPC stops recording. Thanks.
