Funnily enough, when I successfully managed to run an import, it offers you the opportunity to save the logs (which isn't when you really need it)

Maybe because I hadn't closed the sourcecat tag the importer crashed and was unable to save the log file.

Perfect.  Thank you.

Still no joy with the logs though, maybe it's a Vu+ / Blackhole issue?

I've been snowed with work for the last couple of days so have only just managed to get some time to take another look at this

I've updated all the channel id's to match the ones in Matt H's epg.xml file but it still isn't working

When I go to EPG Importer to run it, it shows the NZ XMLTV sources file and when I click on it, it opens a treeview and shows "Matt Huisman NZ EPG"

If I navigate to "Matt Huisman NZ EPG", it highlights that entry. If I click on the entry, an X appears at the start of the line.  Using the import source command (with or without the "X" showing) it says 0 events found

There is no option to create a log file and neither /tmp nor the EPGImport directories have any import-related log files in them

I've zipped the two files up but it looks like since I'm a newbie I can; add files to the forum.  I've uploaded them to this address, hopefully you can download them from there

I've found one problem - on file copy, the filenames were being copied to lower case so I suspect the reference to NZ.channels.xml could not be resolved

I've changed all references to consistent case and now when I select source, I get:

NZ XMLTV

    att Huisman NZ EPG

If I click on the att Huisman NZ EPG line I get an "X" in front of it

With or without the "X" enabled, when I import, it gets no events

An example line is

<channel id="tv1.freeviewnz.tv">1:0:1:4B0:19:222A:EEEE0000:0:0:0:</channel><!-- TVNZ 1 -->

All my lines have a service of "EEEE0000", I didn't copy any that use the SkyTV references that look like this: 1_0_16_3E9_2_A9_6400000_0_0_0

I'm only running DVB-T, so I wonder if this line is looking for the DVB-S reference?

I notice that in your post, you have these examples - should lines 3 & 4 begin with "<"?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<channels>
channel id="tv.9">1:0:1:1F8:384:13E:820000:0:0:0:</channel><!-- TVNZ 1 -->
channel id="tv.10">1:0:1:1F9:384:13E:820000:0:0:0:</channel><!-- TVNZ 2 -->
</channels>

Thanks for this Willy.  I've created the files (your vbs file helped a great deal)

I then copied them to /etc/epgimport as instructed but when I go to EPG Import utility and add sources, it doesn't find them

I can only think that I've either got them in the wrong location or they aren't being parsed due to me having a typo in the xml file(s).  I've hunted for typos, but can't see any (not that this means there aren't any). 

Can you confirm the location where they are meant to be please?
