Using EPGcenter with GB-PVR

EPGcenter is capable of providing EPG information to GB-PVR. To achieve this take following steps

 

[1] First of all make sure that GBPVR is installed and configured correctly.

[2] Make sure that you have named all your channels in GB-PVR exactly the same as you have named them in EPGcenter. So if a channel is called "BBC 1" in EPGcenter then it also should be called "BBC 1" in GB-PVR.

[3] Open the GB-PVR Config and Select the "Capture Sources" tab. Select your defined source and click "Edit". This will bring up below panel. Set "EPG Source" to "XMLTV Plugin"

[4] Click "Settings" next to the EPG Source field. That will bring up following window. There browse to the location to EPGcenter's EXPORT directory where you can then select the file tvguide.xml

And again: That's it.

You will notice a 2 hours difference between what's in EPGcenter and what visible in GB-PVR. To fix this simply set the "Apply Offset ..." setting on the GB-PVR settings panel to +2 hours.
