[QUOTE="Alconja, post: 65788, member: 22517"] I'm guessing it does use ninemsn or something similar as its ultimate source, but at least this way someone else (i.e. JRobbo) has to worry about it when they change stuff, seems like he's pretty active & good at keeping it up to date. As for you only getting 8 char descriptions, thats strange because I've been getting full long descriptions (as in long enough for MP to have to scroll them), including genres, etc, etc, using this one up until a couple of days ago... According to his site though his scrapper sources aren't working properly at the moment so he's temporarily only returning the partial info guides until he can get the full descriptions working again (i.e. at the moment they're the cut down info with shorter descriptions, no genres, etc). Maybe you getting short descriptions is to do with which region data you're getting, I'm using the xmltvSydney.zip one. [/QUOTE]
