TV Guide Headache And Pre assembled Configurations?

[jimmy_is_great]

[COLOR="SeaGreen"]I am in the UK in the midlands. My setup is 2x Hauppauge Nova T 90002 running on a AMD nforce 2

Win2k sp4 latest updates mdac 2.8 dotnet 1.1 DirectX 9c ATI Cat 5.11 GBPVR 9516[/COLOR]

[COLOR="Blue"]I would like a simple way to get the TV guide to;
1 Have the information for all available channels (I have Info for unavailable channels and no info for channels like BBC TWO using DVB EPG)
2 Have the channels listed in an order I want[/COLOR]

I have tried using the Bleb option in the EPG source but it would only add very little information to the TV guide for a few channels and took ages.

I have also tried to use xmltv but it looks like it needs a lot of configuring and I lost interest after being asked do I want BBC2?, BBC2 east, BBC2 London, BBC2 North ..... Etc. (I began to wonder if people using XMLTV actually had anytime left to watch the programs they recorded on their PVR)

So how I can get a TV guide that works 100%?

Also just an idea would it be possible to just download someone elses GBPVR folder for a particular setup i.e. UK Hauppauge Nova T East Midlands region? Would make it much simpler to get a working setup with all the handy plugins pre installed and configured.

try http://www.birtles.org.uk/xmltv, if you cant get that to work then theres no hope. It grabs the listings from the same sites as bleb and xmltv.

Regional seetings would be handy, but everyone has a different rig and the different profiles would be infinate.

Birtles grabber certainly makes light work of xmltv and can grab from both bleb and xmltv so you can mix and match from both, as well as having a +1 option so you only need to download the original like E4 and it automatically creates E4+1 for you.
