[QUOTE="milhouse, post: 215129, member: 26653"] I believe the Schedules Direct plugin is part of the MP install. (At work, so can't verify at the moment.) I am making some assumptions about your setup, since it depends on whether or not your channels are already set up for your tuner card, whether or not you use a settop box, etc. I assume that: -your TV tuner card is set up in MP -your channels are NOT set up in MP -you want to be selective about what channels you want in the guide (i.e. not put all the garbage channels in the epg). So... 1) At schedulesdirect.org, set up a new lineup. Add just the channels you want. 2) In MP config, plugins, Schedules Direct. Right click, enable. Right click, configure. -enter login information -set the number of days worth of schedule information (I do 13) -check the box for "automatically add channels" -Note that if your TV card controls a settop box (e.g. Dish) that you set the option for the input. For example, I have a Dish network stb connected via S-video, so the plugin adds new channels that automatically for the right connection 3) Start MP. It'll take several minutes for the guide information to download (close to 20 for the full schedule). ------------------------------------------------------------- Edit: I was wrong - the Schedules Direct plugin is NOT part of the install. You can download separately in the forums.
