[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1132307, member: 82144"] I think this is really a question for somebody who is more familiar with mc2xml than I am. If I had to guess... From the information on mc2xml's homepage: [URL]http://mc2xml.hosterbox.net/[/URL] ...I would guess that the DAT file created by mc2xml contains the download/grab settings. I can see that it is possible to use the -D flag/option to specify which DAT file mc2xml loads when it does a grab: I can also see that it is possible to use the -I flag/option to include an XMLTV file in the output: So, if I were you I would try the following: [LIST=1] [*]Rename/save your current DAT file which I presume is for Toronto as toronto.dat (or whatever). [*]Create a new DAT file - buffalo.dat (or whatever) - for Buffalo by running and configuring mc2xml. [*]Create a BAT (task) file - collect_my_epg.bat (or whatever) - with the following actions: [LIST=1] [*]Run a grab with the Toronto settings (mc2xml.exe -D toronto.dat -o toronto.xml). [*]Run a grab with the Buffalo settings, and include toronto.xml in the output (mc2xml.exe -D buffalo.dat -o tvguide.xml). [/LIST] [*]Run the BAT file using the Windows command line (DOS box). Just enter the name of the BAT file and press enter. [*]Assuming the previous steps worked correctly, try to configure TV Server's XMLTV plugin to import and use the combined tvguide.xml. [/LIST] Note that a BAT file is just a regular text file containing Windows command line (DOS box) commands (one line per command) with a .bat extension instead of a .txt extension. You can create one with any text editor - notepad, wordpad etc. If it turns out that mc2xml can't successfully combine the two XML/XMLTV files, TV Server's XMLTV plugin can be configured to import more than one tvguide.xml through use of a tvguide.lst file. It is probably easier to try doing the combining with mc2xml first. [/QUOTE]
