[QUOTE="Clean, post: 179138, member: 54178"] I can not help with the dupe checking but I have a cludge that will display the Episode Name in the TV Guide display. I am also wanting to know what specific sports event is on what channel (i.e. Miami vs. Oaklahoma rather than just College Football). Here is what you will need to do. In your Skin directory (whichever skin you use) find the mytvguide.xml file. Back this up (important!). Now open the file in notepad (or text editor of your choice). You are going to add a section (or block) to this. I added it after the Genre section. A section/block begins with <control> and ends with </control>. Do a search for <description>Current program genre</description> and then look for the next </control>. That will be the end of the Genre section. On the next line paste the following... <control> <description>Current program name</description> <type>label</type> <id>27</id> <posX>374</posX> <posY>614</posY> <label>#TV.Guide.EpisodeName</label> <align>left</align> font14 <textcolor>FFB2D4F5</textcolor> <animation effect="fade" time="250">WindowOpen</animation> <animation effect="fade" time="500">WindowClose</animation> </control> The one and only thing that is important about this block is <label>#TV.Guide.EpisodeName</label>. This will display the name of the sports event/Episode Name. Leave the <type> and <id> alone as well. Everything else you can change to suite your own display needs. I use the Foofaraw1610 skin so my <posX> (left to right) and <posY> (top to bottom) may differ from yours as well as text colors and animations. Feel free to change than and experiment. [/QUOTE]
