"EPG123" failed to log in for the past 48 hours to download the latest schedule (red icon in the tray). This happens "semi-frequently" (perhaps once every few months) and my usual fix of launching the "Configuration GUI" from the (red) tray icon's right-click menu and clicking "Save & Execute" wasn't working. Instead, I got a popup telling me:
"FAILED_TOKEN; Failed to get new token..."
I downloaded & installed the latest version of "epg123", but it didn't resolve the issue. But this did (could have been a coincidence, but try it anyway.)...
1) Locate your EPG123 installation folder (probably in "Program Files (x86)")
2) Run "epg123.exe". This should open a DOS/Terminal window and download the latest updates.
3) Run "epg123_gui.exe". This will open the Configuration app. If the download was successful, your Channel lineups should be visible. But app still won't be in the tray.
4) Reboot to reload app into tray.
If you check the tray, the green icon should now be there.
TIP: How to get EPG123 running again (came for help but fixed it.)

Thx. Heck of a coincidence through since the time between my last failed attempt to update via the tray app and me running the "epg123.exe" by hand was only about a minute.

Yeah, and SD seems to have had another issue with their JSON server since yesterday evening. Seems back up & working now.
