Thank you so much for your responses. Follow up question. I created and renamed ren file (post #21). It lives in the same folder as my XML guide file. Does ren file needs to be somewhere else? I still see no guide data in KODI for misnamed channels. I cleared and reloaded guide multiple times and made sure guide XML file has actual guide data for channels in question.
MC2XML uses the REN file as it is writing the XML output file. By default, it looks for m2cxml.ren. If you name it something else, you need to feed MC2XML that information in a command line or in a batch file (.bat). In essence, MC2XML looks at the pulled data and determines if it needs to change the display name by looking in the REN file. If there is no change, it sticks with what it pulled. If there is a change detailed in the REN file, it reflects that change in the xml output file.
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.... Okay I think I need to re-pull. For some reason I pulled, then created chl and ren files. Let me try again. Thank you!
Yes, the CHL and REN files tell MC2XML what channels to include, exclude and how to name them. They have no bearing after the pull.
And BOOM! Got it! missing few UK stuff but I need more time to play around since this makes sense in my head now. Again thank you so much for dumbing it down for me.
No problem... At first, it is a bit tough to wrap the mind around.
So I thought I was on the right track getting this method working with my provider. But with your guide, and vipers, and my own i keep getting this error
<p>07:28:52.378 T:18446744072428839824 ERROR: AddOnLog: Stalker Client: Parse: failed to load XMLTV data</p>

<p>07:28:52.378 T:18446744072428839824 ERROR: AddOnLog: Stalker Client: LoadXMLTV: XMLTV Parse failed</p>
The only way I can not get the error is use the provider listings, but i only get about 30 channels listed that way.
Tell me more about your setup. Kodi 16.1? Even though the guide fails to load, do you have television under the "TV" section of kodi?Quote:

Almost certainly related to your version of Kodi.
