[QUOTE="dvdfreak, post: 227894, member: 21313"] I'll start by giving you a possible scenario to use the XMLTV file in TV Scheduler as well as TVE3: [list=1] [*]disable the TVE3 plugin (very important!) [*]clear the TV Scheduler database completely of all guide data, guide channels, TV channels. [*]import the XMLTV file into TV Scheduler [*]edit all TV channel names to [u]exactly[/u] match the TVE3 names (can be double-checked in the listbox in the TVE3 plugin). [*]now re-enable the TVE3 plugin, with or without DVB-EPG syncing turned on [/list] Because you first made sure the channel mapping was OK, there will be no more issues with the EPG syncing code creating duplicate channels, messing up the mapping. New channels will now only be created for the channels in TVE3 which were not in the XMLTV file (so the ones you really use DVB-EPG on). Is this an acceptable solution to your problem? It's an interesting point that you bring up hibernation, because I could imagine the syncing is messed up by this. Don't really know for sure, would have to test it. But I hope the above can already help. [/QUOTE]
