Yes I purchased and installed MMC for this very reason (shame it is effectively unsupported by Ceton).
Different channels get their weekly updates on different days. The ones I am most interested in get their updates on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. So depending on when you are going away you may only have 7/8 days of advance EPG.

Good question. I guess I won't know until I miss something.

This question has come up again in another thread. Did you get anything back from your upstream?
Guess that's a no then.

I interpreted his answer if you poll on Wed/Thu there is only 8 days, but by Friday you should be about 13.

Yes, but he was going to ask the upstream about the possibility of more frequent updates for this feed.
It would also be useful to know if any schedule changes are pushed out between these weekly batch updates.
