2 Lineups in EPG 123

If I create 2 lineups in EPG123, does this create two separate MXF files, or one just one file that is parsed by Windows media center and or EPG123 at some point? Does EPG123 actually run along with Windows Media Center, or does it just create guide file?

- Just one.
- EPG123 only runs when downloading & creating the .mxf file. It uses Microsoft's external loadmxf.exe to actually load it into the WMC EPG database. These two steps (create and load) are separated by functionality into the main epg123.exe gui and the epg123Client.exe. You can create the .mxf on one machine using only the epg123.exe app and then load it on any number of WMC clients using epg123Client.exe at each one.
