[QUOTE="mark069, post: 709487, member: 110538"] I've been struggling with configuring a program guide for mediaportal which doesn't have native support in the US. By the way, is there any media center software similar to media portal which has free native US tv guide support(other than windows media center)? I've installed and run mc2xml and it generates a data file called xmltv.xml which I think contains the current program guide. The Xmltv plugin asks me to point to the folder where tvguide.xml is stored. I'm stuck - there is no tvguide.xml file so I'm thinking they mean the xmltv.xml file so I rename it to tvguide.xml and try to force an import. It doesn't work. WHat am I doing wrong here? The mc2xml website had some instructions but it hasn't been working for a few days...... Is the WebEPG plugin needed? Seems like it is but there isn't any clear procedure on how to set it up to work with xmltv.
