If something goes wrong with Windows Vista Media Center and you can't get or setup the EPG there, please check the following:
- Open the registry and check out the key discSvc in Local_Machine\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Media Center\Service\EPG. It should look like http://localhost...
- Verify that the service mepgvs is running. If it is not, check the Event Viewer for possible errors/messages. In order to check the service, use Start-Settings-Control Panel-Administrative Tools-Services.
- Check C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\MegaEPG\xml directory and ensure that the binary EPG file exists after the grabber has been executed. Check also the log directory and verify there are no errors in the latest log file. Note: when using the Windows explorer, you may have to choose "Show hidden files" in the Folder options in order to see the AppData directory.
- Open the Internet Explorer and type: http://localhost:19679/log and ensure the page is being opened and there are no error messages on the page.
- Check your firewall settings. Temporarily disable the firewall and try to update the TV Guide manually.
