Important Make sure that the paths entered in the above mentioned settings are properly shared, and accessible via an UNC path (eg. \\yourmachine\MyRecordings ), even if you are working on the local machine. For more information on proper sharing, see  Shared Folders.
To see the shared folders available on your machine, open Windows Explorer (Windows Key + E) and in the address bar, type \\<Computer>. Where <Computer> is the name of your machine. You will be shown all shared folders on your machine. |

- Start guide grabbing at: The start time for the daily grabbing window.
- Keep grabbing for: The duration of the daily grabbing window.
- Grab channels every: How often Argus will attempt to grab updated channel data.
- Prefered language/(2nd)/(3rd): The preferred language(s) for guide data. Useful if your guide data is broadcast in several languages.
- Country: This is only used to pick up the correct "Parental-rating age" for your coutnry, if found (otherwise it falls back to the first rating found).
- Clear EPG Cache button: ....
