    Sometimes when I wanna check the TV Guide in MediaPortal, something's gone amiss with the WEBEPG grabbing (the TV Server plugin) and I have nothing listed in the EPG. Is there a way to "grab now" from within MePo's GUI, or am I forced to shut MePo down, open the TV Server Configuration and manually Grab Now from the plugin?

    Or does a plugin exist that can do this already?

    I also need something similar. There have been occasions when (for whatever reason) the overnight grab failed, and closing out of MP client simply to press Grab Now on the TV Server WebEPG config is really really clunky. There needs to be a way to trigger this.

    Recently had some rubbish EPG data pulled from RadioTimes (it had dates of 20141231 on stuff grabbed on Xmas Day!!!) but a rerun of the Grab the next day worked fine. It would actually be great to be able to actually see the log files from within the client because you'd have absolutely no clue what went wrong. This actually goes for many problems one might have. For this system where MP client is set as "always on top" the only option is to kill it off and start rummaging around in windows explorer (not good WAF to say the least).

    Anyone any solutions?
