    Well, I just moved to TVServer and this is how I have my system working...

    In MP Config I make sure the WebEPBGrabber runs regularly, in the very same way as with the old TVengine. The result of the daily runs is an updated tvguide.xml file.

    In the TVserver Config I point to this file, see PlugIns->XMLTV. Don't forget to enable it.

    So it is a combination of both. The "regular" webepg does the grabbing from the internet, and TVserver reads the file and populates the TVGuide in MP.

    Hope this helps!

    /Peter

    Thank you for this tip! I'm moving MP TV Server to a new machine. I installed the 64-bit version and most of the MP firewall rules were set to Public. I couldn't connect to the new TV Server from my old single-seat installation running 32-bit until I changed all MP-related firewall rules on the new machine to Private. Before I did...

    I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...

    I used to use the grabber but a few years back it disappeared on FreeSat DVBS. That is when I changed to EPG Collector. The extra benefit is that it collects from the Sky platform so it will give EPG for all the FreeSat channels plus the unencrypted movie channels on the Sky platform. It also allows me to pick the channels dedicated...
