Michael,

"Me knows" I've been using --dd-grab-all for a couple of years now. Run
daily.

When I say I'm grabbing the programid from zap2it I don't mean I'm grabbing
it from their database of upcoming shows and inserting it before my
listings are updated. I mean that the listings this channel gives Tribune
sucks. I mean I'm grabbing it from their historical info. e.g.

CHCJ in the Toronto area is airing Corner Gas. For weeks and weeks they air
it without any episode title or description given to TMS/SD at all.

I look at the first few minutes and realize it's Pilates Twist. I search
for it on zap2it's site with Google:

http://tvlistings.zap2it.com/tv/corner-gas-pilates-twist/EP006356110003?aid=zap2it

This is NOT a current listing, just their historical data.

Robert, this was a ticket, #11065, and you said Tribune was not getting
good info from the station.

Thanks.
