[QUOTE="CloFan, post: 424374, member: 91301"] Ah ha, I forgot a step. First though, are you on XP or Vista? I'll get that directory path for you either way, but it's different per operating system. Two options. First: You need to make a shortcut to the mc2xml.exe on your desktop, right click the shortcut, click properties, and you'll see the word "Target" followed by "C:\mc2xml\mc2xml.exe". After the ", you need to add this: [code]-o tvguide.xml[/code], so that the entire string is "C:\mc2xml\mc2xml.exe" -o tvguide.xml You'll need to run this shortcut every time you want to update the guide. OR, second: Set up a Scheduled Task in Windows to run every day, week, or whatever. While setting this up, you pick what file you want to run (mc2xml.exe), and any options you want to run with it. You want to enter -o tvguide.xml into that box, then finish the setup and maybe run it once. All this is doing is telling mc2xml to output a file called tvguid.xml instead of mc2xml.xml or whatever.
