Hello

I wonder if there's any possibility to get XMLTV-data from multiple grabbers to the same file or if it´s possible to download TV-program-info from the DVB-broadcast?

    TV-program-info from the DVB-broadcast

    If its broadcast by the provider, then yes.

    I would say it would screw up the way the file is read and more likely to give you garbage.

    Feel free to correct me if i am wrong on above, but consider there would be too much overlapping information.

    MP setup\TV\Program Guide, usually there is a box ticked GRAB EPG FROM DVB STREAM.

    May take a hour to fully populate, depending on your provider and you may have to specify your chosen language.

    You may have to remove the old program guide info (button same page of setup).

    Recommend doing above at a moment you are not using, or going to need TV for a hour, nothing like impatience when your waiting for something to happen. :)

    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. Consequently, even though the tvguide.xml file appeared to be updated, its content kept being an...

    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...
