In XP MCE, theres a function for TV Guide. So how can we put ASTRO CHANNEL LISTING inside XP MCE? Last time at PC Fair, i saw a demo of XP Media Center listing all the ASTRO channel in XP MCE. Can anyone help me..maybe theres any plugin that im missing. Thanks.

p/s : Mod, if this is a wrong section, pls moved my topic.Thank you.

XP MCE have utilities to record shows from Satellite TV such as ASTRO.
So u need the proper TV Card that support XP MCE to do that.

EPG download is for australia but u may try it for ur own

another 1 is channel guide editor i think tis can:
http://www.xpmediacentre.com.au/community/...nelchanger.html

About
A GUI application to help those wanting to rename their channel names inside the EPG.

Usage
Run ChannelChanger.exe and from the file menu choose open and browse to your channelinfo.xml to load it.
Once finished with editing just choose save from the file menu.

In a BladeRunner installation that path would be -
{drive x}\{win dir}\ehome\BladeRunner\QuickGuide\ChannelInfo.XML

Requirements
Microsoft.NET Framework 1.1
EPG setup using QuickGuide (Bladerunner)

Where
Where else, the download section of this great place.

Why
To make life easier for the Non-Gifted.

Note
Any changes made will not be visible until the next guide update and re-mapping of the changed channels.


I hope this eases the pain for some and you get many benefits from this application.

Enjoy,

MONSTER

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Release 19/07/05
This version has direct support for the upcoming BladeRunner Pro and will be packaged with the installer.

Initial Release
09/07/05
