All working great now.

Small donation to the cause is on it's way.

Cheers.

Ahh, ok. The grabber version was still listed as 2.00.00. I had renamed the old one before copying in the new and somehow it still seemed to be picking up the old one. Deleted the old one and it now reports 2.00.01. Deleted the cache, restarted, refreshed channels and bingo! Great, it's working now ...

Yep, there are URLs in there for Icons(?)

I deleted the cache folde rbut still no luck. Let me try a clean install, refresh channels and grab listings. Will report shortly.

Yes.

Just tried it again now (with my hand-modified channels.lua) and it overwrote it with the previous value for BBC7 i.e. bbc7.bbc.co.uk.

It still fails to retrieve the BBC7 (and others) listings.

Still the same I'm afraid. I did a clean install of 3.12. Configured BBC7 and BBC6 Music for bleb grabber. 75 programs were retrieved. On checking the xml file, only listings for BBC6 Music were present. I then patched the UKBleb.lua with the version from SVN, as per your link and reran. I got the s...

Update: Did a clean install with 3.11.01 and it worked ok. Updated (also tried a clean install) with 3.12 and it fails as described earlier. I did notice that some of the channel names have changed in the channels.lua file inthe bleb directory. In particuar, bbc7 had changed to bbc7.co.uk. If I manu...

Hello, I have the bleb grabber configured to get radio listings. However, most of the channels do not download any listings although the XML files appear to be present on the bleb site. The only channels that seem to work are BBC World Service, BBC6 Music and Radio 5 Live Extra. The channels I am tr...

OK. Just tried it and it's refreshed my memory! When you select the bleb grabber and select the channels, it displays all of the tv channels AND now radio channels. I seem to recll that when I first installed XMLTVGUI last year the radio channels were not there and I had to manually edit the lua fil...

No, just the name without the ".xml". Here's a snippet from my lua file showing the radio channels: local channels= {{ID="bbc1",Name="BBC 1"},{ID="bbc2",Name="BBC 2"},{ID="itv1",Name="ITV 1"},{ID="ch4",Name="Channel...

I use Bleb to get listings for a few radio stations, that RadioTimes don't supply. XMLTVGUI then combines these into the single listings.xml file for me. From memory, I seem to recall having to manually edit the channels.lua file in the settings\UK_Bleb directory. You have to set the "id" ...

Thanks for the quick reply Alan.

I did perform a search on the forum for "Radio" but could not find the answer.

Thanks again,
John

Hello,

Is it possible to use the grabber to get listings for Radio channels? On the Radiotimes website you can view listings for Radio and TV channels, but in the XMLTVGUI channel list, I can only see the TV channels.

Thanks,
John
