Hi everyone,

As the title states, i've been trying to get the epg up and working on MP (using analog cable) and i've had little success using the "fake" zip codes on Zap2Itlabs for mexico 904MEXI and 954MEXI (but all the channels are screwed up "a" is "b" and "b" is "c" and so on , and trying to fix it manually has proven to be a real pain).

I recently found out that TVguide.com has an 100% accurate listing of my local cable provider.

Is there a way to import that data from tvguide.com into MP ?

I've been browsing all over the web and had no luck so far. I've even tried using the Australian TVguide grabber (ozgrabber i think its called) just to see if i could get lucky but no go.

I imagine there are people in other places too outside the US (maybe even inside the us on small towns were their provider aint listed anywhere else but on tvguide.com) that could really use this.

Is there a grabber out there that can import the data from there? or maybe a way to make a xmltv file out of the website info? or any ideas on what i could do? (moving into an official xmltv supported area is out of the question of course ;) )

I would really appreciate any help on this.

    Have you had a look at, or tried TVxb? I have used it in the past and found it to be very flexible and configurable .... :)

    yes i've tried using TVxb but havent had any luck with the .ini files on their website for mexico.

    and if theres a way to manually set it up to grab the data from tvguide.com i dont have the slightest clue how to achieve it
