Mount the dir on which you have the .xml file on your receiver. In the example my folder holding the epg is mounted as /home/Fritz/
But you can use any mount name you want.
I made the mount via fstab:
//192.168.178.30/EPG /home/Fritz cifs rw,iocharset=utf8,username=xxxxx,password=yyyyyy 0 0
(It is a synology NAS which I mount here. The name Fritz is historical)
Then create (or edit) the sources file like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<sources>
<sourcecat sourcecatname="Rytec General XMLTV">
<source type="gen_xmltv" channels="/home/Fritz/epg/rytec.channels.xml.xz">
<description>News Channels XMLTV </description>
<url>/home/Fritz/epg/rytecNWS.xz</url>
</source>
<source type="gen_xmltv" channels="/home/Fritz/epg/rytec.channels.xml.xz">
<description>Erotic Channels</description>
<url>/home/Fritz/epg/rytecERO.xz</url>
</source>
<source type="gen_xmltv" channels="/home/Fritz/epg/rytec.channels.xml.xz">
<description>AFN</description>
<url>/home/Fritz/epg/rytecAFN.xz</url>
</source>
<source type="gen_xmltv" channels="/home/Fritz/epg/rytec.channels.xml.xz">
<description>Rytec IPTV XMLTV</description>
<url>/home/Fritz/epg/rytecIPTV.xz</url>
</source>
<source type="gen_xmltv" channels="/home/Fritz/epg/rytec.channels.xml.xz">
<description>Rytec Miscellaneous XMLTV</description>
<url>/home/Fritz/epg/rytecMisc.xz</url>
</source>
</sourcecat>
</sources>
Here I am using xz compressed files, but they can be just .xml files or .gz compressed files. Just use the correct name of your file.
The sourcecatname and description will appear in the EPGimport plug-in.
