mananged to get it to do a pull.had to remove the -I from all my pulls and combine everything another way.for some reason it would not complete with either a dish usa or dtv usa pull.if I removed them it would complete and produce a epg with uk,mx,ca no problem.
i could of used the way psycon does in his bat file(copy /b file + file +file) but i found what i think is a easier way.
i found a program called mergex,its for combining xml files.put it in your bin folder.i renamed it to mergex.
Code:
https://code.google.com/p/mergex/
with it i was able to do away with the webgrab strip section(leave it with the xml header and footer).
combine my dummy into a .xml file instead of a .txt
Code:
copy /b dummy.hdr + dummy1_conv.txt + dummy2_conv.txt + dummy3_conv.txt + dummy4_conv.txt + dummy5_conv.txt + dummy.ftr dummy_done.xml
merged everything after all my pulls were done.
Code:
mergex -omerged.xml dummy_done.xml wg_guide_tc.xml US.xml US2.xml P12.xml CA.xml MX.xml MX2.xml UK.xml UK2.xml
-omerged.xml is my output file(-o is a flag)
 
There is a small program available from webgrab that adjusts individual pulls. Webgrab is location specific, meaning the adjustments are done for your location. The values will be different say from east coast Canada to Hawaii.

Yeah I found how to do it. I'm trying to grab epg from Gatotv (webgrab plus). I'm tryinbg to grab for 15 days. But it only gives me 3 days. why?
 
what you set if your webgrab.conf file isn't what you may get.
if you look in the gatotv.com.ini file or any of the ini files the first line usually has something similar to this,this is part of the gatotv.com.ini first line
Code:
site {url=gatotv.com|timezone=America/Mexico_City|maxdays=7|
also whatever you set doesn't mean that's what you will get,some channels may not have 7,14 or whatever days of epg avail.

Ok I have changed it. It default as 7 days. But it only grabbing like 3 days... :( Any other source can we grab these channels

Concert Channel
K Music
RCN Novelas
Teletica
 
Concert Channel is on Total Play Mexco. I'm seeing data for K Music and RCN Novelas only through Webgrab (gato.tv). I'm not seeing any data on Teletica though ... may have to dummy it.

Blackbear, I'll post my updated skymex ... it gets about 117, and the total play, getting about 8. The rest are web grab or have to be dummied. I generally dummy news channels ... who really needs a guide for that!

Code:
tp= Total Play,  wg= Webgrab,  dm= Dish Mex


Az Mundo -   azmun (tp) (wg)
caracol internacional - ?crctv (tp)
ESPN 3  --  espn3 (tp) (dm)
Tooncast  --tncast (tp)
Azteca Noticias -aztnot (tp)
Concert Channel -conce (tp)
HTV - htv (tp) (dm)
Fox Action Oeste - foxao (tp)


Teletica- (wg)
Telecentro (wg)
RCN Novelas(wg)
Casa Club tV (wg)
k Music (wg)
Cine Dinamita (wg)
MultiPremier (wg) (dm) I606.44563177.microsoft.com

Has anyone running kodi on Linux or android had any problems with the epg refusing to load?
I am just curious to know if its just me or are other experiencing the same.
since I run my own epg grab I was able to fix what I think is the problem but lookin for any feedback from others.
 
Just thought I would mention.. The is.gd links will be retired on the weekend. the current grab will not be refreshed so when it runs out, it runs out..
The source will remain on git but I will not update it any further..

Not to worry though, we have worked on a better, private grabber, You can find its xml files through This thread:

Thanks for all the support with this everyone..

This is the basis for a .ren, which is what we use to rename a channel in mc2xml so it can be loaded to the server. As far as WebGrabPlus goes, you can read up on it, and use the names listed to match on the configuration file for Webgrabplus.
