YahooXMLTv (requires Go for TV)

[pbb]

No problem. I'm including my batch file too. I thought maybe I was telling gbpvr to look in the wrong directory. I am still a little cloudy on the entire process. So this app using the yahoo program produces the xml file of program data. GBPVR know how to process the data as long as you put the path in the tuner configuration? Thanks for looking at my logs.

Looks like you have two channel 66s. In the Yahoo Tv Wizard, disable one of them and that should fix the issue.

Thanks Whurlston. I'll give it a shot.

I just noticed that I'm using v. 0.1.34 of Yahoo Go for TV. Is there a feature in the newer version that will allow you to do this? I don't see where to modify the guide in the version I'm using. If not is there a file I can edit directly?

When you run the TV Setup Wizard for Yahoo!, after you select the lineup you want it should list the channels with checkboxes, just deselect one. I'm not sure if it's in your version or not. I am using 2.55

I set up my YahooXMLTv last night and it is running great. Nice work!

I am currently using and OTA antenna (not cable or satelite) and the brodcasters listed in the Yahoo Wizard do not show an antenna option. I tried all of the options and the Comcast option is very close to the channel line up that I have but two station are listed as a different channel number (ie my channel 24 is listed as 8 and my channel 30 is listed as 15). The programming appears to be correct but the channel number is just different.

I can map the channels correctly in the GBPVR in the capture sources config so the channel is tunned correctly but the EPG shows the weird channel number. Is there a way to modify this so that the guide will show the channel that I am used to seeing?

I'm working on a renumber option but I'm not sure when it will be done.

I set this up for testing a couple of days ago. So far, no problems! I installed yg4tv 0.2.55. The UpdateEPG.bat seems to fire off with no problem, the XML file is getting updated and GB-PVR has no errors importing it. Very happy! Now I'll help a new co-worker get his going (he didn't know about Zap2It going away).

Thanks, Whurlston!

I have tried deleting the lineup and recreating it. No difference...

Any suggestions?

Can you run a test for me? Run the utility, wait 60 seconds after it finishes, run it again. Post the log from the second run once it's finished.

kayleigh: You're welcome.
