    Hi pisdu,

    You are have lost me. You keep talking about xmltv:

    I looked @ www.wfactory.net xmltv grabber and tried to run xmltv.exe to grab them but i had tons of grabbing-errors.

    Have you tried wfactory from webepg? or any of the other .it grabbers?

    Anyway ive got a complete .it chans coming from http://www.htpcitalia.it/ in xmltv format , and think the easiest solution will be a sort of merge with the remaining .ch chans

    Webepg & MP do not support mixing xmltv files. I believe some people may have written small programs to do this? (try search the forum a bit). However, depending on how the xmltv data/file is available on this site you can create a webepg grabber for it. Then it will download the data for you.

    Hi pisdu,

    You are have lost me. You keep talking about xmltv:

    No , thought that we need to "convert" .it grabber coming from xmltv to WebEpg
    so ive tested wfactory if works

    I looked @ www.wfactory.net xmltv grabber and tried to run xmltv.exe to grab them but i had tons of grabbing-errors.

    Have you tried wfactory from webepg? or any of the other .it grabbers?

    Yes as i told you unfortunately wfactory from webepg has only one channel and the others .it webEpg grabbers didnt contain all the .channels i need.

    Anyway ive got a complete .it chans coming from http://www.htpcitalia.it/ in xmltv format , and think the easiest solution will be a sort of merge with the remaining .ch chans

    Update: Problem solved! The electronic program guides (tvguide.xml) have been successfully transferred to MediaPortal. The issue stemmed from the corruption of one or both of the mc2xml.dat and/or mc2xml.exe files, for an unknown reason.

    I used to use the grabber but a few years back it disappeared on FreeSat DVBS. That is when I changed to EPG Collector. The extra benefit is that it collects from the Sky platform so it will give EPG for all the FreeSat channels plus the unencrypted movie channels on the Sky platform. It also allows me to pick the channels dedicated...
