Thanks Robert,

It's been a while since I have had to touch this installation, just shows how 
good it is :-)..

Good catch with the xmltvlid, I found a new channel definition added that I 
then swapped to the older channel and all is well.

Thanks again to all that have helped - its good to know that there are very 
knowledgeable and helpful people here when they are needed.
