I have the following suggestions to include in the LOG file. Most of these are intended for future debugging by the developer and users as the tool matures.
1) Output the EPG123 version number into the log file.
2) Output the EPG123 configuration options that were in effect at the time of execution. Users can change the configuration of EPG123 at any time; this would identify if the user has changed anything from the last run.
3) Add the same content that is sent to STDOUT in the two console shells that come up. This should also include the name of the listing(s) being requested, quantity of channels/listings etc. on each run. Seems like good history to have.

+1, and if possible:
4) write an update run start and update run finish (with success/failure code or flagged as info/error event) message to Windows Applications and Services/Media Center Event Log
I also see these from 0.7.5 which I assume are not really errors but just some info from SD during the development cycle

Planned to do 1 & 2, number 3 is scattered in the log file already, and 4 is a good idea. I'll work on that.glorp wrote:+1, and if possible:

The ERROR being recorded is expected right now since I haven't arranged with SD on the proper version. Wasted energy right now considering rate of new releases.
