Webgrab no longer working, no EPG! mc2xml?

[ericbiermann]

Since a week or so, the webgrab utility by Paul .... of servercare.nl is no longer working. His site is down as well, while he was always really quick in updating the program whenever tvgids.nl changed their layout.

besides thinking what could have happened to Paul, I am without an EPG now. I have been searching for others, but Amontillado's site is down as well.

stumbled into mc2xml. looks promising, but I don't get dutch channels so far. Used -c nl -g 1000 and tried downloading channels 1-2. Returned 1 german channel.

anyone -in the netherlands- that has similar issues and can help me out?

The "1000" in the command "-c nl -g 1000" is just a sample. You need to use your actual post code (or whatever you call the area code that your postal service uses for your city/town/geographic area). If yours doesn't work, try other post codes from surrounding cities.

Granted, a long one... but don't worry. WebGrab has been updated, cleaned revised & released at version 1.9.0.

And the site now has a UPS... darn power failures, it's like living in California!

Hi All,
back after one year. Again, an empty tv guide, with version 1.9.1. Probably another change on tvgids.nl, but no update on servercare.nl. Should I move to the new Webgrab+ or is there another solution.

Many thanks in advance, without tvguide GBPVR is not too usefull anymore!
