    The TV Listings are not updating in the Windows Media Centre..  This seems to the the same issue as happened in Dec/2011.  The WMC does the update (both manually and automatically)... but stops at May 1,2011.... 

    The listings are correct on the ZAP2IT.com web site...

    Last time I think the problem was that ZAP2IT changed the location of some of the update files...

    Maybe this has happened again....

    Help Microsoft!!!!!!

    Hi,

    Have a test with other web sites. If this issue persists, you may reinstall or reset Windows Media Center.

    there is an issue with the EPG. Unfortunately, your suggestions will not assist.
    MS has asked people to file this issue on Connect at
     
    this is not an issue on local user computers.

    Hi,

    Please try to re-set up the system (Tasks>Settings>TV>Set Up TV Signal).

    Kevin,
    There was an issue with the guide (which I believe has been fixed) last week. No
    amount of "reset up the system" on the customer computers would have fixed this
    and would only have led to more frustration. You can see the number of
    complaints on the Connect site.

    I agree Barb... All too othen people are being told to do extreme things to fix issues which Microsoft need to address...

    The TV Listing issue has happened a few times... and sadly... each time people come out with "Reinstall WMC".. or play with hidden utilities...  or in the worst case... registry settings....

    Happily.. there are people out there like yourself who give careful measured responses....

    Thank you for your help!

    Andy

    PS:.. for now the listings seem to be updating again!
