[QUOTE="david_31262, post: 1229852, member: 155186"] Thanks for the comments. I have the media portal GUI configured to display the Episode Title and Number in the guide. So, I: 1) stopped the TV server 2) edited tvguide.xml (removing the dd_progid lines) 3) restarted the TV server 4) went into the TV server configuration xmltv and force loaded the guide 5) went into media portal and looked at the TV guide (with the mod I'm seeing the episode numbers in the guide) I had initially tried the same experiment with the reverse order of the "episode-nun" entries experiment. I didn't notice any change. Perhaps that was some error on my part. I'll have to try this again. I did E-Mail the author of mc2xml (I contributed to him a couple of times). He did respond. He doesn't seem inclined to change something that he doesn't think is his bug. I'll play around with it some more. I just mass edited the tvguide.xml (with a quick/dirty emacs macro) and removed all the offending lines. I now have lots of episode numbers showing in the media portal guide. I have a timer setup for tonight and will hopefully now get the episode number as part of the recorded file name. I may have to batch up a script to do the edit automatically 5 minutes after the guide update is scheduled to run. [/QUOTE]
