Ok so I had a bit more time to look at this. The scheduled task still fails initially but I think it's succeeding eventually? I can't see why since my user account isn't any different than what it was before. Here is what I get when I manually run the scheduled task.

So I see 0xFFFF... if I refresh while running, but once I wait a minute or two it changes to successful. I think I'm ok I guess?

Try running the Scheduled Task without an EPG123 window open. There can only be a single instance of epg123.exe running so the scheduled task is aborting and not updating the mxf file since you have the configuration GUI open.

Code: Select all
