Help WG.Common.InvalidConfigException:conifg file corrupt

When I apply the example config file this works. when I try the modified config file it throws errors, I have tried to match the line with the Dummy file but no idea, I copied the channels m the site.ini pack.

I have attached logs config and site ini pack zip.

after google search I figured out what you meant. Thank you that has resolved the issue. But I have ran into another issue, where I have set the timespan to 6 but it still only downloading the current day epg only.

as the error suggests you have a blank channel name.
its at line 204.
<channel update="i" site="tvguide.com" site_id="(srvID63892)Number:328,SourceId:13189" xmltv_id="US (SP)"> </channel>

once you fix that your going get alot messages about duplicate xmltv_id's
every channel line must have a unique xmltv_id,the display name can be the same.
the reason is the xmltv_id is usually used to match the epg to the tvg-id from your m3u.
if you have duplicate xmltv_id's there is no way to know what epg is for which channel in you m3u.

it has to be done manually.
least your log will tell u where the duplicates are.

j had another look at your config.
i noticed your grabbing epg for many SD and HD channels.
you dont need to grab the epg twice,for example..

<channel update="i" site="tvguide.com" site_id="(srvID63892)Number:362,SourceId:434" xmltv_id="US The Weather Channel (SP)">The Weather Channel</channel>
<channel update="i" site="tvguide.com" site_id="(srvID63892)Number:362,SourceId:20178" xmltv_id="US The Weather Channel HDTV (SP)">The Weather Channel HDTV</channel>

the epg is exactly the same for both channels(most SD and HD channels are although sometimes HD programming is different but its not vey common).

webgrab can copy the epg,see channel offset..
http://webgrabplus.com/documentation/configuration/webgrabconfigxml#conf...

this is intended for channel like UK which have many +1 +2 channels(time shifted) but it can be used to copy the epg for SD/HD channels.just use a offset of zero.

<channel update="i" site="tvguide.com" site_id="(srvID63892)Number:362,SourceId:434" xmltv_id="US The Weather Channel (SP)">The Weather Channel</channel>
<channel offset="0" same_as="US The Weather Channel (SP)"  xmltv_id="US The Weather Channel HDTV (SP)">The Weather Channel HDTV</channel>

the same_as channel line must be after the original line that grabs the epg,webgrab cant copy epg that hasnt been grabbed yet.
doing this will reduce your epg grabbing time considerably.

you can copy the same epg as many times as needed,say u had a SD,HD and a HD backup.just add as more same_as channel lines.
