    I did the following on a PC without MP and without a tuner:
    Install MP
    Open MP Configuration
    Go to Television
    Go to Program Guide
    Specify correct "Path to tvguide.xml"
    Click OK to close Configuration
    Start MP
    Go to My TV
    Go to TV Guide
    No data available
    Go back to previous screen
    Wait a minute
    Go to TV Guide
    See that MP has started to import the data.

    In this whole process, ignore (OK) any message "No tuner cards installed".

    What is also important is that the "Path to tvguide.xml" MUST contain the file tvguide.xml as well as the file xmltv.dtd.

    Perhaps... Only way to confirm would be for me to invest in a different USB DVB-S2 tuner (like the Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-S2), which I might do if the issue persists.

    MP1 MP2 Issue after replacing tuner DE
    Well, the log doesn't show any problems. I can see correctly tuned channels in the log. It seems to me that the tuner works fine. Can you copy the created ts file(located in your timeshift folder) somewhere else while in channel preview and try to play it in VLC or MPC-HC? PS: You can also try to make short record
