I've seen this mentioned here and there, but i havent seen any topics about it (or i've missed them).
I think this is great, especially for mediaportal users, as the xmltv plugin can now grav the TVGuide.xml without any external downloaders.

I haven't switched to it yet, but is anyone using these? How reliable? It seems perfect in concept.

I been using it over the weekend with Win 7 Media center.

Noticed that there is some double ups for some programs which are slightly different in time.

Not sure how Mediaportal handles these but with the conversion program I use to get it into Win 7 these double ups push all programs back.

I've mentioned this to the site creator.

Seems to work fine on my HTPC with mediaportal 1.0.

I have it scheduled to grab at 8pm daily, and it seems to just-work, even for a mix of freeview and analog channels.
