have you ran 'xmltv.exe tv_grab_na_dd --configure' first?
You may have to set up an account with the provider (I didn't, but I am in the UK if that makes any difference).
My xmltv install went like this;
1. run 'xmltv.exe tv_grab_na_dd --configure', choose channels. This creates the tv_grab_na_dd.conf file in /.wmltv.

Freezing could be a codec problem.

Hi,
its better to install RC2 over the old not deleted contents in the MediaPortal directory. This way you will also keep the settings and you will not keep old files causing problems. Otherwise you might overwrite newer files with your old temp files...
