TVTV.us mixes up the channels

So I setup everything for TVTV.us as I think it is supposed to be, I run latest webgrabplus 3.0.2 on my Windows Server 2012R2 and it creates the xml file and it all looks good. However when I use the file in my TVHeadEnd server, I notice that most of the channels shows incorrect EPG. I start to look in the xml file and I see that the channels have been mixed up and shows totally wrong EPG for the channels it created.

I just did a small test with two channels:

channel id="El Rey Network">
display-name lang="en">El Rey Network
icon src="https://tvtv.us/tvm/i/image/station/100x100/bettv.png" />
url>http://www.tvtv.us
/channel>
channel id="Bloomberg TV USA">
display-name lang="en">Bloomberg TV USA
icon src="https://tvtv.us/tvm/i/image/station/100x100/el-ray-network.png" />
url>http://www.tvtv.us
/channel>

As you can see El Rey Networks actually shows BETtv and Bloomberg shows El Rey Network.

So sure I can sit and try to match the wrong EPGs with the correct channels, but that will take a while.

I attach all important files in a zip file.

I try to use the same way described in the documentation:
http://webgrabplus.com/documentation/configuration/sitechannelsxml

I uncomment everything in the ini file between:
** @auto_xml_channel_start
and
** @auto_xml_channel_end

and in the Webgrab++.config.xml I have this:
"channel update="f" site="tvtv.us" site_id="" xmltv_id="dummy">dummy"

The timespan is 0.

The log shows:
[ Info ] Found existing channel (xmltv_id=dummy) in the config file
[ Info ]
[ Info ]
[ Info ] i=index .=same c=change g=gab r=replace n=new
[ Info ]
[ Info ]
[ Info ] Group (0) :

[ Info ] Group (1) :

[ Debug ]
[ Info ] ( 1/1 ) TVTV.US -- chan. (xmltv_id=dummy) -- mode Channellist
[Error ] Unable to update channel dummy
[Critical] Generic syntax exception:
[Critical] message:
[Error ] no index page data received from dummy
[Error ] unable to update channel, try again later
[ Info ] No guide data to restore

Now I am lost, don't really know what more to test.

Thanks!

u cant do this with is ini,if I remember its explained in the channel xml creation section at the bottom of the ini.
read it and follow the instructions.
everything is the same as in the link u gave but you need to have a correct info in your channel line in your webgrab config.xml

Hi @ejohalj,

I don't know if you managed to figure it out in the meantime, but I happened to have the same issue and was able to create a new channel list.

Let me know if you'd like to try it out yourself. I can tell you what steps I took.

Either way, I am attaching the new channel list

@grenho, thanks man, but I did sort it out. I just created a new file. It worked fine in the end.
