Schedules Direct EPG setup help
« on: August 31, 2011, 10:44:42 am »
I registered and got a user ID and password with Schedules Direct, but am stuck setting up. I got mc2xmle.exe and can get guide working using Microsoft.  Can anybody guide me.

When you open Drives & Devices on the right side menu, and click on "Televison" are the TV channels shown/listed? Does the window say "Double-Click here to load proram guide"? If so, when you double click on it, is there where the guide downloads but doesn't display?

We hope that Schedules Direct will work in a build of MC21 to be released next week.

I use Schedules Direct. When you go through the setup in MC and select "mc2xml" as your EPG data source you simply check the box for SD and enter your password and username (the p/w and u/n you got from Schedules Direct when you setup your account. It works perfectly.

You can also run mc2xml outside of JRiver, you select SD the same way in the program. To run outside of JRiver you download and run the standalone version of mc2xml (ver 1.3) then in MC select "XMLTV" as the EPG data source and point the folder/file "xmltv.xml" that will be the folder for the standalone mc2xml.

Are you in the US?
