I was having errors with it to, I think it might have to do with webgrab wanting to be extracted to C-Program Data, but I have no directory with that name, I have C-Program files? but it wont extract webgrab there, just gives errors...so when you run the GO Batch it works for a while but then errors out when it gets to the webgrab part

I may try it on my window 7 machine, but im not all that worried about it really, just need psycon to re run the batch and link the file in the github and all will be well lol

Yes, after letting the program run I get this exact error to, using windows vista and windows 7 ?..it will still keep running after you close the error out and create the xml guide file but why the error?

Is the is.gd URL still being worked on to be fixed?

Currently doesn't work, as they are missing </tv> on the end of the files (dummy.ftr wasn't added to the bin folder). You can download them to your local machine, add that footer, and then link to that file locally.

I've attached a dummy.ftr in the zip.

For those who are having trouble with permissions in getting into your Windows/temp directory for the wg_guide.xml, you can change the location where the webgrab puts the output file in the "WebGrab++.config.xml" which is in the WebGrab files location, and then modify the go.bat to locate that file to copy into the bin folder. Also, don't forget that you need a dummy.ftr file with "</tv>" in it.

Here's the thing about WebGrab...the way that psycon has it configured, it does take some time to run that portion of the batch. It does get some channels that are missed by the mc2xml grab, but its really insignificant (about 10 english language, 24 spanish language). If you are comfortable with basic programming, modify the go.bat to ignore the processing of the wg_guide.xml by putting 'rem' in front of those lines that have anything to do with WebGrab. I don't want to post a modified batch file here, as its not our intent to teach how to do this.

Dara,

Are you saying we need this dummy.ftr file before running the grab? Where does the dummy.ftr need to go? in the bin folder?

Oops! Ignore... I just saw you mentioned it above.

Dara,

How do I get the skin to work? I was able to create a working NFPSF.xml but the nice colors are not loading. I assume I have to do something with the skin.eminence.ColorEPG.zip, correct?
