I haven't had a lot of time to look into this further, mainly because I am giving a talk this morning. I'll have a better look at lunch time (PDT) and write some more about this. <br/><br/> I think there's no need for panic, as a new guide data source will be found, but this is unexpected. <br/><br/><i>Tags for this post: mythtv(<a href="http://www.stillhq.com/mythtv"><img src="http://www.stillhq.com/tagicon.cgi?post=/mythtv/link/000001&tag=mythtv&format=.png" border="0" alt="S"></a>) link(<a href="http://www.stillhq.com/link"><img src="http://www.stillhq.com/tagicon.cgi?post=/mythtv/link/000001&tag=link&format=.png" border="0" alt="S"></a>) </i> <a href="http://www.stillhq.com/mythtv/link/000001.commentform.html">Comment</a> http://www.stillhq.com/mythtv/link/000001.html http://www.stillhq.com/mythtv/link/000001.html
