[QUOTE="Anthony Vaughan, post: 1283040, member: 153283"] Okay. I realize now what has been going on. Although I had selected WebEPG and set it to use the TV Server Database and the number of days to grab, I had never touched the TV and Radio mappings. Now, I know that the number of days to grab definitely does works but I hadn't appreciated that I needed to do anything to the TV and Radio mappings and, therefore, I guess I have been getting the actual EPG data from the broadcasting source all along. Doh! This seems to have worked fine for me and I've sorted getting the series info into the database series info fields without realizing I could have got it elsewhere. The only benefit I have gained by using WebEPG at all is to get more days of grabbing than I would have got had I not used WebEPG at all - the help text says broadcast only retrieves 2 days of data. You've said earlier that you only use the broadcast EPG yourself so I assume it can work for most people quite adequately. Noted, joecrow. I don't know whether I really want to get into another world of variability by using either WebEPG more fully or any other product. But I will bear it in mind if I change my mind about that.
