I think what is supposed to happen is that, like you said, within video sources I would normally select "retrieve listings" and would get my lineups, and then would be able to select between cable, antenna, and some other stuff... I haven't yet seen this screen, as clicking on retrieve listings just gives me a temporary progress bar and does not change a thing. Looking at the DataDirect forums, there has been an issue with their servers recently, so maybe this is a DataDirect issue. If somebody reading this could kindly confirm this and let me know what you get when you click on the "retrieve listings" button without a brand new video source, this would be extremely helpful. I have created my Zap2It account at the http://labs.zap2it.com page. EDIT: their site is now inaccessible, so perhaps this is the cause of my problems after all! Once I can download my Zap2It data, I'm assuming that I'll then be able to setup my Input Connections... Again, sorry for this miscommunication, clearly I'm simply not seeing what I"m supposed to. Hopefully this is the last you'll hear from me =) ----------- Joe Auty NetMusician: web publishing software for musicians http://www.netmusician.org joe@netmusician.org --Apple-Mail-10-1024127832 content-type: application/pgp-signature; x-mac-type=70674453; name=PGP.sig content-description: This is a digitally signed message part content-disposition: inline; filename=PGP.sig content-transfer-encoding: 7bit -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (Darwin) iD8DBQFF5Ie4CgdfeCwsL5ERAs7fAKCgMlEci6200vW0JoH7BNYoz4P9JACeOOs0 3iPVPUpM+xbhtVdPsD+jK/c= =lmr4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Apple-Mail-10-1024127832--
