[QUOTE="bighick, post: 834802, member: 96192"] If nobody helps by tomorrow I will try to type something up start to finish. I pay the $20 a month or so to schedules direct but it shouldn't make much difference as I am using mc2xml. Starting unless I get to tired... 1. Download mc2xml edit- also download xmltv.dtd off their site its a weird green highlight 2. find where your xmltv.dat file is, mine was in "C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal TV Server\xmltv" How would I use mc2xml with MediaPortal? * 3. as follows.. this is all in a command prompt! and using WMC for epg grabbing md "C:\mc2xml" cd "C:\mc2xml" copy "C:\downloads\mc2xml.exe" "C:\mc2xml" copy "C:\downloads\xmltv.dtd" "C:\mc2xml" notepad "C:\mc2xml\mc2xml.chl" mc2xml -c us -g YOUR ZIPCODE -o tvguide.xml 4. the mc2xml window will pop up check your settings here... I choose -a -A 5. Open TV server Config and go to plugins/ xmltv Choose where you set up your mc2xml. EX C:\mc2xml Check import new tvguide.xml and delete old programs before import Click Import next to force import...this can take quite a while 6. Choose Mappings Load/Refresh try to map them as best you can ( I had to change a few times just checking the wrong channels) Click SAVE 7. Go back to general and force import again 8. Open up MePo and see what happens. If you need help with setting up a task to run the mc2xml every day just ask. Hope this helps!!! [/QUOTE]
