[QUOTE="KeesVDP, post: 52688, member: 20289"] I use a settop box and I do have to add channels manually. I don't plan to though, because if I take the time to do that I can't be sure I've done it right until I set up my XMLTV correctly, and I can't be sure I've set up my XMLTV correctly until my channels are added correctly. So I'm going to avoid the whole mess. I don't like GBPVR and really want to switch to MP but I don't have the time. I'll probably eventually try setting up MP without the box so I can understand better how it works. I'm not a coder, I wish I was because I'd love to contribute to open-source apps. I am a CG artist tough and will most likely make some nice skins. I don't know much about XMLTV but if you go to Zap2it and pick your channels and download the list, why can't MP just look at that and setup the channels by itself? In the setup wizard it could just ask for your Zap2it user/password and ask how your hardware's connected? I'm sure it's more complicated than that, thats just a la-mans frustration. I'm sure I'll keep trying. [/QUOTE]
