[mythtv-users] Australian Community-based TV Guide new API

[William Kenworthy]

I do - it didnt work very well for me, eventually losing whole channels
as well as being quite inaccurate at times.  It was also wasnt the
easiest thing to get working.  Emails to the shepperd list about missing
channels went unanswered, so I went back to minnie and have no desire to
go back to that pain.  Thats why there needs to be alternatives -
shepperds not for everyone!
