File Paths in Custom Channels Dialog

#1

Note: I am running Channels as a service.

When I go to Settings and try to add custom channels, I cannot get it to recognize a file path for the XMLTV Guide Data source. It expects a URL, but I generate my guide data with WebGrab+, so it is in a local file. I tried the file path, D:\file.xml, with no luck.

I tried a file URL: file:///D:/file.xml (with 2 and 3 slashes after the colon)

I tried omitting the colon (":") after the D.

How do you load EPG data from a local file?

D:\patth should work. What does the log show when you use that?

My bad. I was using a browser on a different machine. I think that was confusing things. When I remoted into my DVR box, it worked. Sorry & thank you.
