    Hi guys,

    There have been a few new channels recently on Freeview, ITVBE, ITVBE+1 and Spike. I'm using Webgrabplus but I can't find the details to add these channels to the capture process.

    ie. this stuff;
    <channel update="i" site="tvguide.co.uk" site_id="119" xmltv_id="CBeebies">CBeebies</channel>

    Any ideas how I can add them?

    Cheers

    I don't use it but it looks like you just need to grab the site_ID from the channel's URL on the TV Guide website e.g.
    my.tvguide.co.uk/channellisting.asp?ch=119 for CBeebies

    http://my.tvguide.co.uk/channellisting.asp?ch=964
    <channel update="i" site="tvguide.co.uk" site_id="964" xmltv_id="Spike">Spike</channel>

    http://my.tvguide.co.uk/channellisting.asp?ch=926
    <channel update="i" site="tvguide.co.uk" site_id="926" xmltv_id="ITVBe">ITVBe</channel>

    http://my.tvguide.co.uk/channellisting.asp?ch=957
    <channel update="i" site="tvguide.co.uk" site_id="957" xmltv_id="ITVBe+1">ITVBe+1</channel>

    Perfect thank you.
    Note to anybody else here, after I updated the Webgrabplus to start pulling the metadata I noticed that the channel still wasn't updating in the EPG. Fixed this by going into the Plugins -> XMLTV and updating the Mapping (I forgot about this step!) now all working nicely.

    Cheers
