Hi, I just started using MediaPortal 1, but I cannot configure it to grab the EPG information. I am using a SiliconDust HDHomerun Dual TV Card (2 tuners). Windows 8 s my OS. What can I do to configure the EPG properly?

This shows how to set up getting EPG data from digital TV through TV cards: http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/13_Quick_Setup/2_TV_Quick_Setup . About half way down the page. (It takes a while to get data so watch tv for a while and give it a chance to populate the EPG)
This thread shows 2 different ways to get EPG data in the United States. https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...om-grabber-file-adds-subtitle-support.108360/

another US EPG option is to download, install, configure the SchedulesDirect plugin. I think it costs about $25/yr for an account and download the EPG info. I have not tried this option. You can download the MePo plugin from the following and it has links to the MePo forum about SchedulesDirect

TLD,
I don't think the EPG option you showed applies to US OTA/ATSC. I tried turning it on, enabled background EPG grab, view show for 30 minutes etc. The logs shows EPG grab starting, but it does not find anything. I think that only applies to DVB outside the US.
You can get US EPG grabbing working for ATSC OTA if you download/setup EPG Collector and XMLTV. Not sure I'd recommend this option for a new MePo user. I put an example of how I set this up in the following forum message.

MP2 uses the same TV engine as MP1, so it must work also with MP2, you just need to select TVE3 and not TVE3.5 in the installer. MP2 also supports a 3rd TV engine TVMosaic, but this is configured web-based and I can not tell you, if this works with your hardware.

I have not experienced that myself, and I don't know of any reason why that might occur (but my knowledge of how TV Server works is not extensive).
