I have been using tvguide.com for a while now, with no complaints until recently. Tonight for instance "Once Upon A Time" is a 2-hr long show. TVguide.com only shows it as a 1-hr show, luckily I caught it and set Argus scheduler to record an hr later. I did notice that along with tv.twcc.com, nextguide, zap2it, and others show it as a 2-hr show.
This is a request for http://tv.twcc.com/listings as you know. How do you go about starting this and where can I help with this if it's possible? My postal code is 14808
Thanks, Michael
Hi,
I will add http://tv.twcc.com/listings to the list of new site requests. But that can take some time.
Have you tried schedulesdirect http://www.webgrabplus.com/sites/default/files/download/ini/info/zip/International_schedulesdirect.org.zip as alternative? It costs a little but it seems quite reliable. It uses the same guide source as zap2it so I gues your stations must be available.

Sounds great!
I have checked out schedules direct and yes it's a good site for it. I only looked at this one as it would cover a large group of people who might be using WebGrabPlus. It is Time Warner's schedule and will soon cover Comcast as well since they are merging.
What could I do to help? I have been looking in the forum on creating your own ini, my question is how do you find the Server ID. Looking in the cookie I don't see one listed there. Are there other names they would use? Anything I can do to help and learn would be great. I do have some knowledge of C++, javascript, html and such. I have been looking into XML more lately as I have been scripting XBMC to make it more of my own for a HTPC setup once I have all the parts.

Hi Michael,
just to get you started: In the attached ini file I already configured the url for the index pages and the index_showsplit.
To get the required url data you can use the developer mode of your browser. I always use IE which has an excellent developer mode which you can call by hitting F12.
Of course you will need the WG++ manual http://www.webgrabplus.com/sites/default/files/download/documentation/Manual/Documentation.V1.1.4.pdf
I haven't configured the channel file creation , to use the ini you can use these lines in your config:
<channel update="f" site="tv.twcc.com" site_id="wcbs-cbs" xmltv_id="WCBS (CBS)">WCBS (CBS)</channel>
<channel update="f" site="tv.twcc.com" site_id="fios-g4" xmltv_id="WJLPDT">WJLPDT</channel>
I hope you succeed ... Jan
