[QUOTE="Christoph21x, post: 803275, member: 88026"] [b]AW: MediaPortal TV-Server won't import tvguide.xml[/b] Dear all, I think, the thread and the authors touched various (different) reasons. To check, if you have a REAL problem is simple - if you don't have yet a valid (OWN created) tvguide.xml or guide.xml, which is created properly (by "whatever" software): 1. Activate BOTH plugins: WebEPG AND XMLTV 2. configure WebEPG for some testing channels properly with the property to write a XMLTV file (not anything else - you can select it withing the MP TV-Server Configuration / Plugins) 3. configure XMLTV to read exactly THIS file. XMLTV will check for this file every minute so you should see it rather soon in your guide. 4. Hit "grab now" - and it will show you as soon as it's finished 5. Wait 5 minutes and check your TV guide. Please note: WebGrab ist not really grabbing ALL information, just very limited. Many times, information as "actors", "directed by", "original title", etc. is missing. but if you've st up things running, THEN you can care for another grabber... ... and the deactivate THEN WebEPG - but NOT the XMLTV plugin Kind regards from Switzerland - Christoph [/QUOTE]
