Running RC2 (but I believe this happened in earlier versions as well). The tvguide.xml file has information for channel 48 AETV, but the TV Guide always shows 'No TVGuide data available' for that channel. The link below is to a rar file with screen caps of the zap2it page and MP setup dialog that shows this channel enabled as well as the tvguide.xml file. I don't see anything wrong in the data or setup so I'm posting it as a MP bug. Bug feel free to show me my stupidity and prove me wrong :)

Webepg has the same problem, displays 'Sorry, no EPG information available...'

Thanks in advance.

Mediaportal only does this at certain times of the day when there are no programmes on at that time on that channel. However, it does appear to be inconsistent, sometimes appearing blank if there are visible programs later in the day.

The message is displayed all the time for that channel, even when there are entries in the xml file.

    This is probably irrelevant, but the second last line of the <display-name> entry for 48 AETV looks odd to me...

    Code:
     <channel id="I10035.labs.zap2it.com">
        <display-name>48 AETV</display-name>
        <display-name>48 AETV NY60241:-</display-name>
        <display-name>48</display-name>
        <display-name>AETV</display-name>
        <display-name>A &amp; E Network</display-name>
        <display-name>Satellite</display-name>
      </channel>

    I am referring to this bit "<display-name>A &amp; E Network</display-name>"

    Yeah I thought that at first too, but there are other channels with the ampersand in that field and they work fine.

    Thanks for taking a shot :)
