Re: [Xmltv-users] Not able to "grab" shows

[Jerry V. <je...@ma...>]

First, can you verify you're running the latest release 0.5.8 ?
Second, think about what has changed since the last time you
had things working ? Switch ISPs ? New proxy server ? Did you
ISP add a proxy server ? New firewall ?

Try visiting www.zap2it.com and type in your postal/zip code, make
sure they support you (just in case, although unlikely the problem).

Try reading the troubleshooting notes:
  http://freeguide-tv.sourceforge.net/README.html#notes

Most of the time its a proxy setting missing...

Please report your progress.
