Setting up WebEPG Grabber (1 Viewer)

[Dukenukemx]

Trying to setup the www_imdb_com.xml file and when I hit the Grab Now button it still shows 0 channels 0 programs. The file sits in "C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal TV Server\WebEPG\grabbers\US". I entered the following in as a test. What am I missing? This is trying to be EPG through IMDB for US East coast.

  <Channels>

  <Channel id="A&amp;E" siteId="AETV" />
  <Channel id="ABC Family" siteId="ABCF" />
  <Channel id="AMC" siteId="AMC" />
  <Channel id="ANIMALHD" siteId="APL" />
  <Channel id="BBC America" siteId="BBCA" />
  <Channel id="BBC World News" siteId="BBCWLD" />
  <Channel id="BET" siteId="BET" />
  <Channel id="Bloomberg TV" siteId="BLOOM" />
  </Channels>

Hello

Are you following the instructions in the wiki?
http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_...ides/2_TV_Setup/4_TV_Guide_Setup_(EPG)/WebEPG

Do you already have all the channels in the TV Channels section of TV Server Configuration?

Please could you attach your full www_imdb_com.xml file and screenshots of all your WebEPG configuration.

I have all the channels that I want working in the TV section. I'm trying to switch away from mc2xml which uses Microsofts EPG data and that doesn't always work very well. I've uploaded the www_imdb_com.xml and a couple of screen shots of the WebEPG settings.

Downloaded your imdb.xml grabber, copied it to the following folder, did a manual map of 2 channels since your Channel Names don't match mine, and did a 3-day "GrabNow". WebEPG downloaded 2 channels 177 programs. For testing I used "write tvguide.xml" option and opened tvguide.xml with IE (drag file to IE window). Bottom line your imdb.xml file is setup correctly and should work using the normal "write to TV Server database" option. For test I used A&E and ABC Family mapped to my local KGO-HD, KPIX-TV channels.

For MP1
C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal TV Server\WebEPG\grabbers\US

The following link shows an example where another user was having setup problems and the steps I used for testing.

If you still have problems make a zip file with your TV Server log files, close TV Server Config, open TV Server Config, do WebEPG setup, press "save" then "grabnow". Make zip file with all TV Server logs, and upload.
