[QUOTE="iancalderban, post: 342324, member: 85629"] Thanks Paranoid, that makes a difference, I seem to be getting something, the files are no longer zero length. I supposed I could have guessed that its probably not going to do h.264 to mpeg on the fly. still a little tricky to test properly without an epg to set programmed recordings from sleep etc though. with a load/refresh many channels are there and most of them have matched guide entries. I haven't set web epg entries for _all_ of them so some have a RED against them on this screen . I have seen a couple of different behaviours now. in the second tab if I hit save, an import on the first tab then works (I get 2600 or so programs imported). Into media portal itself and I see programs listed for a small subset of my channels. some are dvb-s and well into the future so its clearly not off-air it must have come from the web-epg. But its probably only half a dozen channels out of a hundred or so. back out of MP gui, back into tv server config, check the import first tab again - zero programs found, and it reports "tvguide.xml not found". Then tv server config crashes :( another start of MP, and now I have limited now-next type data and my into-the-future data has gone... What do I need to set the TV channels->TV epg grabber section of tv server config to? yes TVguide.xml is very definately there as is xmltv.dtd. The precise directory is C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\xmltv that appears to be the default place that webepg save is and I haven't moved it. I have opened this file by hand in notepad and it contains lots of data for lots of different channels. this being vista, is it a permissions thing? do I need to turn off UAC? one of my reasons for coming over from the dark side is annoyance with epg bad behaviour in vista tv-pack, so I hope this isn't too hard to get working!
