[QUOTE="patrick, post: 324448, member: 12502"] Not really sure what you are looking for....this plugin does not create a file with guide data. It just updates the MP database. patrick Welcome!! I am not sure where you are starting from and cannot tell what your setup is so here are the basics. Start fresh. Clear all your existing channels. Re-run the MP auto-tune. This helps in multiple ways. I have no idea what other EPG plugins you may have tried do to the mapping so anything strange can cause a problem and to determine what new data needs to be downloaded the plugin gets the date/time of the last program in the guide. So if you have no EPG data until 10 days out then depending on your settings the plugin may decide you do not need any more data. Enable matching by channel # without frequency. Give the plugin 30-45 minutes at least for the initial update. It has to do a lot and depending on your lineup and PC speed can take a while. HTH, patrick Yes the SD plugin is fairly independent of the MP settings. Using the SD plugin has nothing to do with the XMLTV plugin and will most likely cause errors until the channel list is cleared and recreated fresh for one or the other. Programs being an hour off has nothing to do with this plugin. Meaning a show starts @ 8PM it does not matter if it is daylight savings or not ;) (The internal MP plugins used to use some type of offset so this could cause issues) Would only potentially have caused issues with this plugin on programs that start @ 2AM or ran through 2AM. Not sure what those settings do but this plugin always tries to input the most up to date programs in the EPG. patrick [/QUOTE]
