You're welcome.
If you need any help setting up ServerWMC or Kodi, feel free to ask. You may also wish to review the guide that I wrote. There's a link to it in my signature.
Once I get epg123 set-up, I'll probably add it to the guide as well.

How do I force the epg123 guide data to be used? at the moment I'm not seeing any changed in my guide data

You haven't posted enough to be able to reply.
Not sure why advocate99 is helping you outside the open forum though.

Hey Guys, a couple questions.
I can see the Season XX, Episode YY in WMC but I'm not seeing it in Kodi.
In the ServerWMC config file I see the string listed below. Is this the correct string to show the Season XX, Episode YY in kodi?
<AppendEpisodeCountFormat> ({0})</AppendEpisodeCountFormat>
Also I have the number and callsign enabled <ChannelDisplayFormatString>{0} {1}</ChannelDisplayFormatString> but with this option I'm unable to see the channel logo (this is because its looking at the channel# and callsign to associate the logo.
504 WTTGDT This doesn't show the logo in the guide but WTTGDT does
Is there a way to get the app to ignore the 504 and still show the logo by only associating it with the call sign but still allowing both to be visible?

Are you asking about episodes displayed in the guide or about recordings? For guide episodes we are sending the season number and episode number, but we aren't sending these fields for recordings. The field AppendEpisodeCountFormat, as no effect on this.
I'm not sure what the problem is with the channel logo. Is this channel logo problem only happening on your networked kodi client?

Thanks Krusty, I was asking about the numbers displayed in the guide, I'm not seeing that in Kodi but I do see it in WMC.
As far as the channel logos and number I got that worked out by selecting "Use Channel numbers from backend"

Does the skin you are using display the season/episode number but the values are blank? Or does it not display them at all? If its the later its more likely a skin issue.
We send the season/episode number to kodi but for the normal wmc guide data these values are always zero. Its cool that eps123 is filling these out.

I'll go back to the default skin to confirm.

OK, it does show in the Confluence skin but no other I have.
Strange because when I first set this up in late July it worked for me in the same skin I'm using now "Arctic: Zephyr"

The skin I use kept breaking when it did an update, so I disabled updates for it. That will come back to bite eventually, but for now it works great...
