Thanks guys. I tried Philip's method, but I ended up with more or less<br>
the same result as before. Maybe I misunderstood parts of it. Then I<br>
tried MythWeb, and that has been much more successful. Most channels now<br>
display the right guide info, but there are a few exceptions. MaoriTV<br>
shows the guide info for ParliamentTV, for example. And two of the<br>
channels found by scanning which are not listed in the XML file are<br>
showing guide info from other channels, despite having nothing in the<br>
XMLTV ID field.<br>
<br>
If anyone knows how I can resolve those last issues I'd be grateful,<br>
otherwise I'm tempted to just accept it as good enough.<br>
<br>
Thanks again.<br>
