[QUOTE="Jon Sawers, post: 1263751, member: 164517"] Thanks for the reply CyberSimian, very informative. I came from many years of WMC, making sure to change from it before Win7 loses the support of security updates in January. I used to get the guide from WMC directly, but after a hiccup on their end a few years ago, I swapped to DVBGuide, which was working flawlessly for me. This downloads the EPG from the satellite, rather than the internet. I had a look on their site to see if it would work with MP2, but the owner stopped updating it a few years ago it would appear. I've found the channel you refer to on the radio channels, which is called "Chl Line-up". I had read a topic on this forum about using a radio channel to find the EPG, but the other topic mentioned it was called "Freesat-info" or similar, and I wasn't able to find that. I hadn't clocked that it might have another name! I've added the channel as you suggest, but I'm not sure how I then use it to grab the EPG from it. I performed a grab from within WebEPG, but this didn't help. I'm assuming that since this grabs from the internet, it isn't working in the same way as you mentioned above. How do I initiate a grab from the "DVB EPG" section to see if it works? Do I need to map it to the WebEPG in order to make the grab using this as the source, or just leave it enabled in the DVB EPG section as you outline above. [/QUOTE]
