Hi Paul ! I was very excited when I found your web page today, and was keen to try it out. I am using Digiguide with DVBViewer 3.2.6, but only got an error message saying that dvbviewer/setup.ini was not there. I have not used an older version, but assume that the program has changed since your tool was created. Now the file in question is called setup.xml

Is there any chance that you can find the time to incorporate the new version ?

Thanks, Mike.

Here is my XML file, if this helps

I'll have a look.

However, in the version that I developed against .. the setup.ini was also where it stord the recording schedule.

Can you schedule something manually with DVBViewer and see where it puts its data (might only save it on exit).

Please email your findings directly to me.

I will also try to download that version of DVBViewer so that I can experiment myself - but I do not have the supported hardware so testing not always easy.
