[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1302695, member: 141969"] That is not the correct location. Is it a typo in your post, or are the files really in that folder? This is where that folder should reside and what it should contain: [code] Volume in drive C is 10L_137S_20250607_1ST Volume Serial Number is 227E-9B80 Directory of C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal TV Server\xmltv 2025-06-09 10:31 <DIR> . 2025-06-09 10:31 <DIR> .. 2025-05-03 19:06 522 ReadMe.txt 2025-06-09 08:45 11,875,745 TVGuide.xml 2025-05-25 01:15 30,516 xmltv.dtd 2025-05-03 19:06 22,416 xmltv.dtd0 2025-05-25 01:17 28,423,474 xmltv.exe 5 File(s) 40,352,673 bytes 2 Dir(s) 40,524,308,480 bytes free[/code] The file "xmltv.dtd0" is the version of the "dtd" file that is included in the MP installer, but as you can see it is significantly smaller than the one included in the XmlTv zip file, so I renamed the MP one and I used the zip-file one, and that caused no problems. This is the XmlTv that I used: [code] Volume in drive D is IP700_D Volume Serial Number is 70FD-3000 Directory of D:\store\x\xmltv\1_4_0\64 2025-06-09 10:29 <DIR> . 2025-06-09 10:29 <DIR> .. 2025-05-25 01:15 17,895 Changes 2025-05-25 01:15 18,431 COPYING 2025-05-25 01:15 10,798 QuickStart 2025-05-25 01:15 6,284 README-Windows.md 2025-06-09 10:16 22,754,561 xmltv-1.4.0-win64.zip 2025-05-25 01:15 30,516 xmltv.dtd 2025-05-25 01:17 28,423,474 xmltv.exe 7 File(s) 51,261,959 bytes 2 Dir(s) 22,815,662,080 bytes free[/code] I unzipped the XmlTv zip file into the above folder, and then copied the "exe" and "dtd" files into the MP TV Server folder shown earlier. This is the EPG Collector folder where the "ini" file is stored: [code] Volume in drive C is 10L_137S_20250607_1ST Volume Serial Number is 227E-9B80 Directory of C:\Users\Iceman\AppData\Local\Geekzone\EPG Collector 2025-06-11 18:27 <DIR> . 2025-06-11 18:27 <DIR> .. 2025-06-09 08:45 224 EPG Collector.hst 2025-06-09 08:39 311 EPG Collector.ini 2025-06-09 08:34 307 EPG Collector.ini.bak 2025-06-09 09:28 123,106 EPG Collector.log 2025-06-11 18:27 0 epgcollector.txt 2025-06-08 01:02 <DIR> TuningParameters 5 File(s) 123,948 bytes 3 Dir(s) 40,522,731,520 bytes free[/code] I hope that this helps to get XmlTv working for you. -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
