much appreciated. It works (I just did not know what I had to configure it).

On a similar note, how can I get a view of all movies (just movies) that are in the guide (in a list or whatever). I am a long time WMC user and the best feature was that it would show me all the movies currently in the guide. When I got to search guide, movies seem to be categorize in the same genres as shows. That a big miss for me...

This is something I miss from WMC too. For those not familiar. Instead of having an the Group All: Channels bar on the left of the TV Guide. WMC has a View Categories here. Say your kids wan't to watch something. Instead of scrolling through the entire guide. You select Kids and it brings up all currently airing kids shows. Same goes for sports and movies. This makes it really easy and fast to find something to watch when you're in a certain mood.

    Ahh interesting idea, so as well as scrolling through channel groups we could scroll through genres. It could just be a pseudo channel group, that only lists channels that have a NOW/NEXT program that matches the genre.

    @antidot, thank you for the Perl file. I think I was able to compile it with the DLLs included in the exe. My MediaPortal machine doesn't have Perl and it works fine there. The source exe I compiled and zipped passes Windows Defender scans, but it will probably still trigger antivirus warnings once downloaded from the internet. I...

    Thanks very much, Jasmeet. Worked. But note that this setting has moved, apparently, to: Settings > TV (not Plugins)

    Hi This is a general question about OnX. I have been using the TvWishList plugin for a while and have recently updated (update install) from MP 1.36 x86 to 1.37 x86 and found there seemed to be no Onx menu in the TV guide. I then configured the onx.presets.xml file like I would normally do with updates or fresh installs, but still...
