Zap2xml is working as normal this morning. It must have just been a temporary issue with the website.

Anybody else having issues with Zap2xml? Parsing seems fine, but post keeps giving the following error message and then skipping the listing: :504 Gateway Time-out at script/zap2xml.pl line 365 Any ideas? Could it just be a temporary problem with the Zap2it website? What does line 365 refer to?

Thanks Steve. I got it working again. Something got corrupted in 7MC. I'm going to blame 7MC here. A quick reinstall and everything is back to normal.

my setup is simple: scraping OTA data with zap2xml and using EPG Collector to get it into Windows 7 Media Center. Everything was rock solid until about a month ago. Something crashed in WMC. I finally got around to rebuilding this week. I did not receive an error message in zap2xml or EPC. But when I edit the channel in 7MC the EPG created listing isn't there. Any ideas?

haha really? I found that guide a while back and always thought it was you for some reason. Whoops!

I didn't word my original post very well. This is the guide I was talking about. Your guide says to use -j. xyn19's guide says not to. I tried with the -j option and without it. I really don't notice a difference in functionality. I think I'll just leave -j off.

Steve -- can you please settle a debate once and for all (possibly just one I'm having with myself)? Is -j (to add series category to all non-movie programs) needed or not? I have a really good (though slightly outdated I suppose) PDF guide written by you saying to use it. This really good guide https://sourceforge.net/p/epgcollector/discussion/1125945/thread/f5e3a54134/#46a8 says not to use it. And in facts says it can cause problems. So -j or not? Thanks!!!
