No headends found for entered postal code and country

I am installing EPG123 and have hit a roadblock. I enter my zipcode and get "No headends found for entered postal code and country".

It took a little bit, but it finally came up. Schedules Direct will buffer zipcodes that their users request. It looks like you were the very first 32931 in their membership. Try again and it should work.

It did come up, I started the install a second time and went to schedules direct and added a SD/DD lineup even though the guide says you don't have to. Now I am looking at WMC and it doesn't have a guide. It has a TV setup next to the DVR icon. There is a symbol in the bottom right, a TV with a red X and a rabbit ears antenna on top. I schedule the update to run at 1645, but it didn't run. Not sure what to do now?

You need to set up the tuners in WMC which is Step 2 of the install. http://epg123.garyan2.net/install/step2/

What type of tuner do you have?

Nothing seems to be working as the guide says. I have no guide and the updates are not running as scheduled. I have a red X in a TV with rabbit ears in the bottom right of WMC.

I did set them up. WMC found 4 Avermedia OTA tuners. That is what I have used for Media Center for 10 years.

But if your WMC still shows the icon for 'tv setup' in the TV strip, then you never completed it. EPG123 will not import any guide data into WMC if you do not have your tuners/guide channel already setup.
