    I'm hoping that this is just the first step toward getting re-run info (or a flag) into the EPG.

    Actually, the repeat flag is in the database but the guide doesn't show it. For now, I've added it to the description too so it can be seen.

    OK, so I've followed the directions in the first post, it has created an XML file called tvguide in my XMLTV directory, the path is set to where it should read it within MP, and I still can't see a TV Guide within MP. I see the channels and they are all labeled correctly, but all the channels say No Guide Information across the whole thing. Any ideas? I am in the USA (Eastern Standard Time.)

    Thanks in advance!!

    double check that your channel names in MP match EXACTLY the spelling from Zap2It. You can always download XMLTVmapper from the downloads section to use more friendly names and match them up to the ones downloaded from Zap2It.

    I have downloaed that, and used it to create the Channel Maps XML file, but when I started MP, it still doesn't show the channel guide info from the file that is in the XMLTV folder.

    are you sure you have zap2it configured right to transmit the correct changes to your database?

    I have no idea... How do I do that? All I've done is follow the steps in the first post of this thread...
