[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 27749"] Hi, i am new to the media portal program and am having trouble adding my channel lineup. I am used to snapstream where it just finds your channels for you (i'm a GUI person as i dont' erally understand line commands and stuff). I have followed the guide at the top of this forum so far, but i get lost here: 3.Create an update batch file, update.bat, and insert the following using plain text and appropriate spacing. xmltv.exe tv_grab_na_dd --days 7 --output tvguide.xml 4.From a command prompt in the XMLTV directory, run update.bat and watch for errors. Rerun configuration above, if settings need to be changed/adjusted to match your listings. This example provides 7 days of listings for Canada & US according to your channel selection. 5.Delete the TVDatabasev3/4.db file from: C:\Program Files\Team XBMC\MediaPortal\database 6. Configure MedialPortal settings MyTVGuide XMLTV directory to the above default directory. 7.Start MediaPortal, goto to My TV>Schedule and refresh the guide [F3]. The dialog will indicate a successful update, click OK to continue. *TV Channel names in File/Setup/TVChannels must match the TVGuide data! I don't know how to create batch files or do any of that stuff. Can somebody give some help with how to perform these steps? Thanks a lot [/QUOTE]
