This is the second time I've experienced the fallout of mc2xml expiring without warning. WAF = 0 when you discover none of your programs have been recorded during the week due to lack of EPG data.

This time around when I went to the new site and tried to download the new version, my Norton antivirus promptly quarantined the file. So with that on top of the fear that I would someday have to discover (yet again) that mc2xml silently stopped grabbing EPG data, I decided to try an alternative.

I found XMLTV GUI instead. It was easy enough to set up and it's been running for a week with no problem. (You set up a Scheduled Task to run it.)

BTW I'm using it with SchedulesDirect in the US.
