Really the only area i have had issues with is the EPG. For whatever reason, it has given me a lot of trouble. I first tried using the zap2it plugin. However, no matter what i tried, i could not get it to work. it kept giving me a message when i started MP up saying that it was unable to process any channels, and asked if i did an autotune. I followed the directions given in this thread: [url]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/showthread.php?t=8278[/url] So next i tried using the xmltv method, following the directions in this thread: [url]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/showthread.php?t=116[/url] I finally got this to work after some effort. For example, if my channel list did not match it would not load the EPG properly. and for whatever reason, the time zone offset was not accurate. However, after a few days i suddenly found my EPG completely blank again. i tried redoing the xmltv guide, but i have not been able to get a full EPG since. to make matters worse, for whatever reason now certain channels are still named, while others are blank, and if i try to delete any of these channels they don't seem to stay deleted. If i delete all channels, then use the "import from tv guide" only certain channels get listed (the top half or so). If really would appreciate some help in this. Is there no easier way for me to get an EPG in MP? I can post the log file(s) if needed, just let me know what i need to post from them. Thanks for any responses, Aaron [/QUOTE]
