[mythtv-users] [Australian Program Guide Listings - FoxtelMissing]

My bad.  I think this issue is caused by a 404 being returned so the
HTML cannot be parsed.  I removed the files for the 18, 19, 20,
however, the 404 errors persist.  Looking at ninemsn, the guide for
18, 19 and 20 do not exist.

I wonder what is up..!!
