[QUOTE="2.0, post: 847340, member: 118263"] I don't know if it's possible to grab the data from that website, but you can use WebEPG to grab any channel data from the IMDB TV Listing website. IMDB TV Listings has all channel data for every zip code and TV provider in the US, but the WebEPG xml file for the IMDB site needs to be fixed and customized for your own area. I personally spent a couple of hours fixing mine and now I reliably get all my channel data from IMDB through WebEPG. Here's where you start: [url]http://www.imdb.com/tvgrid/[/url] From there, you have to enter your zip code and TV provider. Once you get that info, you can edit the "www_imdb_com.xml" file and add one line for the channel you want. In my case, I used this line: [CODE] <Channel id="Antenna TV" siteId="WPIXDT4/?zip=xxxxx&tv_prov=xxxxxxx" /> [/CODE] You will need to replace the xxxxx with whatever zip and TV provider is listed in the URL of the IMDB TV Listing website. Save the file and set up WebEPG to map your channel properly, and it should grab the info. While you're at it, you can set up all of your channels to get EPG info through IMDB this way. There was a thread that explained the process a little more thoroughly, but I forget where it was. [/QUOTE]
