[QUOTE="Anthony Vaughan, post: 1282921, member: 153283"] Hi CyberSimian We went through this in detail some time ago and I had forgotten some of the nuances. It would appear that WebEPG doesn't work as a closed system. It asks you to define how many days to grab the EPG for and whether to clear old programs, and then a schedule as well as a grab now option. This would give the impression that it is stand-alone. However, in my experience, Grab Now doesn't do anything. When I deselected the DVB EPG, no grabbing happened and when I reinstated that, grabbing started again. So, reality is telling me one thing and it seems to differ from the theory. The Help system says WebEPG was designed for MediaPortal but doesn't mention whether it is necessary to make it work together with DVB EPG. I just don't get why a schedule is offered in WebEPG that is never implemented. Maybe someone can help us understand what the intention was and how it is meant to work in practice? Hope you can find out more:). Tony [/QUOTE]
