Hi folks,
one of the most important things when watching tv is a good EPG support. Often EPG information broadcasted by channel providers are not available or faulty. Here it is where the web grabber - grabbing tv guide sites - comes into play. Most TV Servers (backends) support XMLTV (which is a file format for representing tv information) import, some like VDR have xmtlv and web grabbing plugins. There are some websites providing tv guide information in xmltv format, but not many.
WebGrab+Plus rockz it all - support for more than 100 tv guide web sites world wide, could be enhanced since the support is provided by special ini files containing parsing rules.
Unfortunately written for windows with heavy usage of NET-Framework, hope it will run with WINE so it could be used tvheadend too ..
