Are you using WEBEpg.exe or the included WebEPG Grabber plugin ? How do you start WebEPG.exe ?

I have tried both, with similar results. Lately, the grabber plug-in doesn't seem to work properly. The attached log shows how I started WebEPG.exe manually around 1 AM this morning. The grabber plug-in was set to do an update at 4 AM (see graphic), but, judging from the logfile, the system didn't wake up. If I am interpreting the log correctly, the update I started at 1 resumed when I manually restarted the system around 7 AM this morning. Once again, the process appears not to have finished. I once again have a TVguide-writing.xml and a TVguide.xml (also attached).

I briefly had a "finished" TVguide.xml, but many stations that are mapped to grabbers still showed "no data available". By the time I got around to packing it up for this post, it appears the WebEPG was run again. I dîd reboot the HTPC about the time it seems to have run, but find no indication (e.g. in MSCONFIG) as to how it was started.

After turning off hibernation, I got a run where a lot of data were collected from 20min.ch. Reviewing the log file showed nothing but errors from the other two Swiss grabbers, fernsehen.ch and sfdrs.ch (should actually be sf.tv, if I understand the conventions). I canged as many channels as I could to read their data from 20 min.ch, or from a grabber for the particular country where the station is (e.g. germany, spain). I then painfully tweaked the two erroneous grabbers by hand (not having gotten WebEPG Designer to work) and now have data for more channels than ever. There are still a few things are spoiling my fun:
1. The latest WebEPG logs show lots of errors from 20min.ch, even though I didn't change this grabber.
2. I still don't understand when and why WebEPG runs automatically.
3. The coloring (by genre, I suppose) of the TV Guide is hideous. How can I modify it?
P.S. I am finally getting the hang of this.
1. Seems to work OK now.
2. Had to enable PowerScheduler to get this to work decently.
3. Gave up and turned of highlighting by Genre
Attached is a corrected grabber for www.fernsehen.ch
