This may be a problem with Schedules Direct data that isn't error-handled properly by EPG123, so may need Gary to look at it.

There is a small possibility that it is cache corruption, in which case you can try clearing the EPG123 cache and re-running, but perhaps you should wait to hear from Gary in case he wants to fix the problem instead of just getting rid of the corrupted data that EPG123 is not handling gracefully.

There's a college soccer series that is causing problems. Give me a little while to find the fix and I'll release a new version to fix this.

The problem is related to creating the MMUI+ file. If you don't use MMUI+, disabling that option will allow it to complete successfully. I'll still find the fix and release an update, this is just an update on what is going on.
