[QUOTE="mattoid, post: 30663, member: 17611"] Hi I am getting a similar problem; when i hit the 'import from xml' button, the message says 'this is not a valid channel list', and when i try to import from tv guide, it says 'root element is missing'. I have unpacked the xmltv package and run it to configure, but i cannot log into zap2itlabs as i cannot find a certificate number anywhere, just reams of channel data. I suppose this is the problem? I have also read about people using the autotune function; where is this? all help welcome cheers! ps I can't get the template to work either, but my setup is c3m266 mobo with onboard grafix, 1.2 celeron, 512ddr, Nvidia NVTV tuner. I just found the autotuner - not got anything out of it yet tho... _______________________________________________________ :D Scratch that; I got my tvguide working! :lol: A bit more searching on the website pointed me to the docs in the xmltv\doc\man folder. 1. run xmltv.exe tv_grab_uk_rt --configure I am not prompted for any certificate numbers here; is that normal? You can select the channels you want from here, but I find the Radio Times system clunky and slow, so I set it to 'all' and deleted the unwanted channels as below. 2. Go to xmltv\.xmltv\tv_grab_uk_rt.conf, open this with notepad and edit out the channels you don't want. 3.run xmltv.exe tv_grab_uk_rt --output tvguide.xml This creates the tvguide.xml file in the xmltv folder 4. Open MP configuration, television/channels, and click on 'Import from TVguide'. Job done! well it worked for me anyway. Problem is, I still can't get the autotune to work, so no TV yet. :roll: [/QUOTE]
