Because of the Schedule Direct service outage I have not run an update in a few days. However, before that I was running epg123.exe v1.1.4 without command line arguments. It says in the V1.1.4 guide that epg123.exe has one argument [-UPDATE] that "Creates the WMC EPG guide .mxf file according to the configuration file". Is this a default command line argument? If so why does it exist? If not then what does it mean to create an .mxf file not based on the configuration file? The guide seems OK to me. What's going on here?
Now with v1.1.6 there is another command line argument [-P] that "Displays a message box with progress bars while building the guide .mxf file". Is this a default argument or must I specify it to display the progress bar when I update to v1.1.6?

epg123.exe => EPG123 GUI
epg123.exe -update => creates the mxf file
epg123.exe -update -p => creates the mxf file and shows the progress window
If you do a save and execute from the GUI, it will close the GUI and basically perform a -update -p.
