[QUOTE="fod, post: 82822, member: 22145"] i have been having all sorts of problems as well with zap2it. When i first installed it worked great for 2 weeks. THen my cable provider moved some channels around, and it took awhile for the zap2it lineup to be updated. Once it was updated i had something like 7 channels that didnt have the proper guide information. I deleted all my channels in the mpconfiguration.exe. I re-scanned, re-installed the plugin, renamed the channels to exactly the same names as zap2it, and all of a sudden MP stopped finding some channels altogether, i now don't have channels 5 - 7- 16- and 36 at all, it just randomly assigns some other channel to these. I have tried manually entering the frequencies, changing the chanell from cable to antennae. Finally i formatted my hardrive re-installed windows and started from scratch, in the end i ended up exactly where i left off with MP and Zap2it. I don't have the channels mentioned above and the guide information for the bottom 14 channels is completely wrong or missing altogether. I hope that this has more to do with the TV Engine than anything else and that the tv 3.0 engine will be better. I have tried the forums, and besides a few suggestions about channel scanning i have had little support as well. It is too bad, the only thing really missing from my HTPC is a reliable tv guide, mostly, to schedule recordings with some sense of assuredness. I feel your pain ZCUBED FOD [/QUOTE]
