To whom it may concern,
I tried to install version 1.1.18 on my windows 7 media computer for over a day with no success. When ever i tried to set it up all seemed to be fine until the guide was updating or installing into WMC, the epg123 program would stop woking and no guide info in WMC. I read a post from someone how they tried an older version and i thought i had nothing to lose. So I downloaded version 1.1.15 and now everything is working. I have guide info in WMC that isn't rovi. I would prefer to use the newer version, but at least this older version works. If anyone knows why the newer version 1.1.18 wont work or what needs to be done to get it to work that would be fine, but since to older version work I'm good for now or at least until this old version stops working.......

Don't know why you had any problems with 1.1.18, but you can go ahead and install 1.1.18 over 1.1.15. Once 1.1.18 is installed, open the configuration GUI (Launch EPG123) and check the settings then do a Save & Execute. The Save & Execute is typically not needed but I changed the lineup names in 1.1.18 and the older name from 1.1.15 won't be visible in the client GUI.
