TVGuide.xml writing to wrong directory (1 Viewer)

My operating system is Windows Vista
I'm using WEBEPG to grab the tv guide and create the tvguide.xml.
As far as I know in Windows Vista MediaPortal loads the tv guide from 'C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\XMLTV\tvguide.xml', so I set that path in MediaPortal Setup, Television, Program Guide, Path to tvguide.xml.
Nevertheless WEBEPG writes tvguide.xml to 'C:\Program Files\Team mediaPortal\MediaPortal\XMLTV'. so I have to move it manually to 'C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\XMLTV' every time I use WEBEPG to refresh the tv guide.


Update:
I think I found the solution. I copied the file xmltv.dtd from 'C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\XMLTV' to 'C:\Program Files\Team mediaPortal\MediaPortal\XMLTV' and put the path to tvguide.xml in MediaPortal Setup, Television, Program Guide, Path to tvguide.xml. back to 'C:\Program Files\Team mediaPortal\MediaPortal\XMLTV'.
Now the tv guide is loading in MediaPortal.

I had the same problem. Seems to be a bug when using mp with vista.

I also copied the dtd file but it first didn't work.

Since I've pressed the import webepg button in the mp channel setup the xml file seems to be imported. I hope that mp automaticaly reloads the tvguide.xml file from now on.

maybe i have a second problem with epg, because i'm using one dvb-t card and one analog card.
