[QUOTE="benicehavefun, post: 1222694, member: 149859"] So, for anyone that would like EPG data for radio stations in the US, here's my finished grabber. You'll need to customize it much like what's required for the IMDb US TV grabber. Go to DAR.fm to figure out the "siteId" (a 4 digit number) for each station you'd like guide data for, and modify the www_dar_fm_com.xml file according to this Wiki: [URL="https://www.team-mediaportal.com/wiki/display/MediaPortal1/WebEPG+-+TVGuide"]WebEPG - TVGuide - MediaPortal 1 - MediaPortal Wiki[/URL] (though there's no zip code requirement). The modified file needs to be placed in the C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal TV Server\WebEPG\grabbers\US on your MePo TV Server. You should find the www_imdb_com.xml file there already. Once you've scanned your stations on your tuner card and placed the xml file in the the above directory, you can map your scanned channels to the stations listed in the grabber file using the WebEPG plugin mapping feature for radio. DAR.fm seems to have data for most stations that have actual shows (talk, news, etc) -- not so much for stations that are mostly music. You can add stations and scheduling data to their site though, with a free account, if there's something you want that's missing. With a paid account (a tad expensive), you can can record in the cloud and download the recordings like podcasts. Obviously, you'll be able to do much the same on your HTPC with MediaPortal, a tuner card that does FM radio, and the EPG data you'll get with this grabber! [/QUOTE]
