Hi,
It's been mentioned once before a few months back about Digiguide and using it with MP. For those of you who don't know about this product, it is basically a very flexable TV listings guide. It costs £8.99 a year subscription but has one of the largest databases of channels in the UK. It covers all the usuall channels + a lot of the smaller minority channels not covered by XMLTV listings.
Ok, back to the point of this posting. A few days ago, Digiguide posted that they are now compiling their own TV listings rather than buying them in. This is a change in their business model and allows them to do deals with the channels directly and hopefully get a better service. It might be worth while seeing if a tieup with Digiguide could be setup for an add in module to be created for MP based on the Digiuide product. I don't know where things stand here as they are a commercial operation, but this would provide a very good EPG function with a wider channel base.
