Which is best (2 Viewers)

Help! I've set up my XMLTV and some of the stations aren't giving the right information, and others are not giving any. I'm in the UK, and am a novice when it comes to setting this up. I spent quite a few hours yesterday, just getting the grabber to locate the XMLTV files. I extracted the files from xmltv-0.5.45-win32, to the XMLTV folder, but I just created another folder, so I had to do a bit of cutting and pasting. The long and short of it is, it's not working as well as I thought.
Can anyone recommend or advise the best way to do it.

Why are you using xmltv if in the uk, a lot easier to use WEBEPG for analogue cards, or for DVB either EPG from TV stream\WEBEPG your choice, but much more supported by MP nowadays.

OK WEBEPG is best! But I'm still no wiser how to set it up.

Hope that helps, and uk is under GB, a tip do not close any window also make sure they do not overlap, takes me about 10 minutes to setup my 33 channels.

Things have got worse. I couldn't find the EPG grabber, and then realised I had an earlier release of MP. I downloaded the latest stable release, installed it, scanned for stations for Emly Moor, and when I started MP, there were no channels at all. When I went into setup, and tried setting the stations for UK All Regions, it just closed down and gave me the dreaded Windows error message. I really love the flexibility of MP, but this is driving me nuts.
