WebGrabEPG Manager

Contextual reference

Help

A short guide to the manager's main features and benchmark results.

FEATURES

Dashboard
Summarizes Worker and WebGrab readiness, current Guide values, and the next scheduled Guide.
Sources
Manages providers, SiteIni files, and enabled state. Disabled Sources are excluded from Benchmark All.
Channel Catalogue
Shows a provider's complete discovered channel catalogue.
Benchmark EPG
Tests the full enabled provider catalogue with real WebGrab retrieval to measure catalogue health.
Channels
Manages canonical EPG sources, Linked Targets, Linked To mappings, manual overrides, and the Unmapped filter.
Playlist Import
Imports channels in bulk from an M3U/M3U8 file or pasted playlist content. Imported channels can then be linked to canonical EPG sources.
Channel Analysis
Uses measured benchmark and provider-identity evidence to evaluate a channel mapping.
Guide / EPG
Grabs selected canonical sources, applies linked mappings, and creates the final consumer guide.xml.
Guide Output
Shows generated XML size, channels, programmes, coverage, and output state.
Publication
An optional delivery layer for an already generated Guide. Never is normal while publication is disabled and does not mean Guide generation failed.
Runs
Shows historical operations, results, and structured Guide warning details when evidence exists.
Logs
Shows the Latest 20 managed operation logs. Retention removes older managed raw logs, not run history.
Schedule
Controls Guide and source-refresh schedules and the application-wide timezone used by scheduling calculations and displayed timestamps.
Settings
Manages WebGrab credentials, Telegram notifications, Uptime Kuma monitoring, and supported integration settings.
Worker
The dedicated licensed worker that performs controlled WebGrab operations.
Telegram
Sends configured operation start and result notifications without raw playlist or credential data.
Uptime Kuma
Provides optional monitoring and never gates Guide generation.

BENCHMARK TERMINOLOGY

Real programme data was retrieved.
Clean zero
The channel completed without provider/runtime failure but returned no programmes.
Localized failure
A specific channel failed while the provider benchmark remained measurable.
Indeterminate
The available evidence cannot support a reliable classification.
Healthy / PASS
The benchmark completed without an operational provider failure; separate diagnostic warnings may remain.
