When I got the reply I think they left the timing vague on purpose....
I suspect that the problem may not be sorted in a hurry as it probably
has more to do with lawyers than techo's... <br>
<br>
I remember reading an article a couple of months ago about how PVR's
where not available in Aus because the stations are trying to stop
people using the program data as they are worried about losing
advertising revenue as it will make it 'easier' to not watch the ads.
At the time I just thought to myself that the reporter should have
researched better and would have found the D1/Myth boxes and been
proved wrong. What worries me is that someone corrected him, the
stations took notice of D1 and we the community loose our reliable
source of XMLTV data.... <br>
<br>
<u><i><b>NOTE:</b></i></u> the above is totally speculation and I know
nothing more about D1 than what I have read on their site and know even
less about any real legal issue's surrounding program guide data.....<br>

Excellent service considering that I'm not a paying customer.

But as to the grabber I might have a quick look myself at coding

something as well, although by the sounds of the messages in this

a couple of other people might be well ahead of me.

Thanks to all those who replied.

seems to be failing to get data past tomorrow. Is this just me or is

everyone having this issue? Is it worth contacting d1.com.au and

asking about this? (I understand they supply the data) Or as I'm not
