i have been running this batch file for months with no issues using the Spring '16 version:

time /t
date /t
cd "C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MP2-Server\SlimTVCore\v3.0\xmltv\
del tvguide.xml /q
zap2xml -u <email addr> -p <pw> -o "C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MP2-Server\SlimTVCore\v3.0\xmltv\tvguide.xml" -I -e -D -d 14
time /t
date /t


i output the results to a log file (attached with email/pw for account redacted)
the results at the end of the file are:

Downloaded 66219 bytes in 258 http requests.
Writing XML file: C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MP2-Server\SlimTVCore\v3.0\xmltv\tvguide.xml
Completed in 151s (Parse: 151s) 30 stations, 1951 programs, 2880 scheduled.


reading the tvguide.xml file i find no entries with a start date of 20161121 or greater. nothing shows up in MP2 TV guide for 11/21 or later, which makes sense based on the xml file.
Zap2it.com recently changed but i am not getting any indication of any errors.
Is anyone else seeing this problem?
any suggestions for troubleshooting?

thanks in advance for any assistance.

UPDATE: pointing zap2xml generates an xml file with dates as expected but it is not importing into MP2. i have restarted the MP service and the MP2 program after getting the new xml file but nothing shows in the TV GUIDE

UPDATE 2: previous update should have said "pointing zap2xml at tvguide..."
the server configuration window says "no programs found" after doing a manual import. here is the latest xml file. it looks like there are a bunch of programs there to me.

UPDATE 3; RESOLVED - i haven't needed to do anything with MP2 for so long i skipped the setup after reinstalling MP2 (which probably wasn't needed after all) I believe the issue was zap2it did not download any data for whatever reason. switching to TV Guide got me data but in a different format. I needed to go into the setup for XMLTV in the TV server configuration and remap the channels.
the TV guide in MP2 is now working as it should.
