What is WebGrab+Plus

WebGrab+Plus is a generic webgrab tool that can grab tv listings from websites and create a xmltv file for it. This xmltv file can be fed to a PVR/EPG system to visualize the tv listing.
 Because WebGrab+Plus itself is generic, it will need to know how to grab a specific website. This info is packed into siteini files. For every supported website, such a file will exist. On a website you have multiple tv channels. To know what channels are available for a specific siteini (website), you can look into the accompanying .channels.xml file. This file contains a list of channels that can be used. All those files can be found in the siteini.pack folder.
 Currently WebGrab+Plus is only a command line tool. So no GUI (Graphic User Interface) is available. 

A list of all features can be found on our website

How to use
1.Find the config file (WebGrab++.config.xml) and open it with a simple text editor.
2.Locate the dummy <channel> line at the end of the file
3.Now look inside the siteini.pack folder and find the channels you want to grab (inside the .channels.xml files)
4.Replace the dummy <channel> line with the channel(s) you want to grab
5.Run WebGrab+Plus
6.You should get a xmltv file called guide.xml file with the tv listings of your channels
7.For more information about the configuration file, see on our website
8.To feed the generate xmltv file into you EPG/PVR system you can follow examples on our site
