EIT data is (with W7) natively supported by WMC. They do a lot of things
wrong, but a few things they just get "right."
You simply click the "WMC" icon, tell it you're in DVB territory, the
channel scan works (nice!), BOOM you're in.
I will NEVER cross borders and run WMC as my system (mythtv or die!) but W7
really leapfrogged for people in DVB countries. No mucking around with
broken channel scanners, importing channel.conf or scan.conf, no setting a
starting freq based on some text file you dig up.... it all really just
works, including over the air EPG.
