This is for use with mc2xml.

How to decrease the size of your xmltv.xml file.

running mc2xml stock

• 
  

I am writing this with all of my files located in c:\mc2xml\

contents of the folder are as follows.

• mc2xml.exe - this the application.
  
• mc2xml.chl - contents of the chl file are only the channels that you want to pull metadata for. If you do not have a channel number or sub channel listed in this folder you will not pull guide data for that channel.
  • 2
    
  • 3
    
  • 4
    
  • 9
    
  • 25
    
  
  
• mc2xml.ren - in this file you can add a display name for a channel.
  • 2:CBS
    
  • 3:ION
    
  • 4:NBC
    
  • 9:MY9
    
  • 25:CNN
    
  
  
• mc2xml.dat - this is created on your first run of mc2xml.exe. It stores all of your information that you input when you first run the application.
  
• xmltv.xml - output with desired settings above.
  
• mc2xml.bat - this is a batch file that I have created and run every 12 hours.
  
  Code:

  @echo off
mc2xml.exe -d 24 -o xmltv.xml -s -6

after: unfortunately looks like they are having an issue so I can't post a screen shot. the final xmltv.xml file is <1mb though.
