Hopefully this is the last you'll hear from me =) never mind. i can't help you with Zap2It data, i use xmltv_nl. but you are on the right track now. if you have an "input" defined, i am not sure if it is important if it retrieves right. you can try to bind it in mythtv-setup(4) to your card anyway?. this is probably a mythtv issue, not a freebsd one. regards, usleep
