I've got the TV Guide set up and it works fine with one exception, the channel names interfere with seeing what's currently playing. The channel name overflows into the current programs. An example of the channel names is c2WBRZ.www.zap2it.com. Is there any way to rename the channels to the channel number or the channel number and station id? It looks like everything is set up correctly in the listing.xml. There are alternative display names. Do I have to mess around with the tuples in the XBMP config file. Any info anyone can provide will be greatly appreciated.

did u put your listing.xml in the tvguide folder or the xbmp2.4 root (same place as default.xbe)? cause ive been trying to get this thing to work but no go.

I was wonderin if this is a UK option only... or am i so dumb in this aspect as to not know how to get it to work?
Any help for an TV guide noob:) I've got all other features to work without a prob... just not the TV guide...
please be gentle:)

yeah, how do you use the tv-guide? I get all the channels listed but I cannot select one to see the programs

In order to cleanup the XMLTV listing you can use XMTLV-Automate to d/l your listings. there is an option there to cleanup the listing.

I believe there is an option in XBMP to also clean up the listing... I forget what the options are now though since I only used the listing probably twice!!


For those that want the basics of setting this up there is a tutorial out there. I thought the link was on the old www.xboxmediaplayer.de site but now I can't find it on the new setup...

If I find a link to the tutorial I will post it here. Basically, you need to d/l the XMLTV data (using an XMLTV program.. see sourceforge.net) and then transfer the listing program over to your xbox using FTP..
