    Hard drive causing stuttering - ideas?

    Hi Tatch76. I am having exactly the same problem. I'm running under XP and yes, my new HDD is a WD Green 1TB as well. Did you end up figuring a solution? Seems a shame to upgrade to a 1TB disk only to then find is good for anything but what you bought it for. MikeL

    New Australian TV guide source

    Hi Angusmann, Great to see you back with a new EPG. I used DUGG for quite a while and was always in awe of your ability to keep up with the constant changes at the networks. I've recently had my fill of EPG frustrations with my current source, so I'm keen to give your current system a go...

    Some improvement Thanks Taipan. I've done as you said and it's taken me alot closer to where I need to be, but I am still not quite there yet. The TVGuide.xml file (attached as text) looks much closer to what I would expect it to be, however it won't load properly into MP. When I "import...

    TV Guide for Aussies

    Thanks Sonome, Would be very glad to hear from you. I thought your solution in http://nolanparty.com/mediaportal.sourceforge.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=10600&highlight=daylight" was brilliant. An equivalent for the python script would be fantastic if it is possible. Regards, Mike
