Type cd c:\program files\team mediaportal\mediaportal\xmltv. Type xmltv tv_grab_dd_na --configure. Resume Step 8 from above.2) Also run the "Run Grabber" again so that you can actually get the data instead of just setting up your .conf.** Notes about time zone offset settings **In the RC2 I have never been able to "Get time zone data from the XMLTV file" because if it did get that data you shouldn't have to set the offset (atleast thats why I would think). If you are having problems with your times being off, make sure you are following this guide from a fresh install (delete the mediaportal directory). This is the only way I know of getting the time zone stuff to work as it should.** Windows Task Scheduler Settings **Well, this stuff works pretty much how it is. Set your administrator account and password (or another user that has rights to create tasks).I tried to italicize any information that may be different if you are configuring this for another country, or in a different directory.Thats pretty much it. Feel free to post anything I have missed.I do take donations via Paypal... haha just kidding-Chris</blockquote>I have given up on the Zap2it option, and signed up for an account at schedules direct.  I downloaded the schedules direct plug in from here, and extracted it to the plugins folder.  I configured the plugin with my username and pass for schedules direct, but nothing happens.  There are no channels listed anywhere under the TV Channels in TVserver.[/QUOTE]
