Local Cable Listings

[Wanderin]

How come i can go to the Zap2It website and pull up my local cable listing for my zipcode but SageTv wont give me the option to download the listing? The only download options i recieve are for Dishnetwork, DirectTv, and Local Broadcast. I am really interested in using this program instead of maually setting up my recording times for shows within my Hauppauge PVR250 software. Any info would be appreciated...thanx.

Please read this page on our website, it'll tell you more about that:

If you're outside of the service area, you may be able to make use of an EPG plugin. Here's a thread that talks more about that:

If SageTv gets its EPG information from Zap2it and my local cable is listed there then why cant i use it? I guess thats what im really looking for an answer to. Im currently testing SageRecorder and im very pleased with it and will be purchaseing it if its not possible to get the correct EPG data for SageTv. One more question which has nothing to do with the EPG...where can i find some information on setting up two PVR250 cards to record at the same time?

Wanderin - did you follow the links Jeff pointed you to? If you had, you would see that Frey has purchased a package of Service Regions that is somewhat less than their "full lineup". Presumably, this has saved Frey and their customers some money. Let's hope interest grows in Sage in order to allow Frey to extend their "subscription" to include your area...

In the meantime, there are a couple of options for you. One involves choosing a region which is currently supported and mapping the stations in common with your own area. The other option involves a plug-in which "scrapes" the listings from the Web (see references to "XMLTV").

Following these links, you should find all the info you need...

Wanderin, for using 2 cards. It's pretty easy, just install them and then they'll both appears as capture options in SageRecorder. I can give you more details if you have a specific question.
