I installed EPG123 beginning of last month and it worked good then it stopped working lately. There was no guide data. Looked on the EPG123 site and saw an update so I installed it and still not working. Original installation work nice and was considering a donation but now its a mess and disappointing.

Based on the timing, I would say you never actually installed EPG123.

1) What does the status logo look like on the WMC homepage?
2) What does your trace.log file ([View Log]) say about what it has been doing the last month?
3) In the client, do the names in the 'Subscribed Lineup' column on the left side start with "EPG123"?
4) How many merged channels, lineups, and services does the status bar in the bottom of the client say?
5) What does the WMC About Guide Listings (settings->TV->Guide->About Guide Listings) say the end date of your EPG123 lineup(s) is/are?

This sounds like what I'm experiencing, my schedule ended on Thursday 1/30 and I haven't been able to get my schedule. Been manually trying to get this working so probably don't have trace files any more since I cleared the cache. My schedules are coming from Schedules Direct. I also installed the latest it wasn't working before or after.

My answers you requested of the other poster:
1 ? not sure what the status log is (sorry)
2 (below) I had cleared cached earlier so don't have older entries
3 Subscribed lineup is blank for all entries
4 9999 merged channels , 4 lineups, 414 services
5 I don't have About Guide Listings based on that path

Here's from the trace

Looks like I got mine working after looking at another post. Only thing I did was click on the match by number guide channels, must have missed that somewhere in the steps. Thank you!
