Anyone else lost all guide data in NZ since daylight savings?

Don't know if that to blame, but I do you that the last shows I have recorded are from the 30th September, and all I had in the guide was Prime channels. Im using VMC, BRP 3.0 and xmlTVNZ 2.5.0.3 (just upgraded from 2.5.0.0 to try and solve this).

So I try re-installing BRP, clearing the EPG folder but now I cant get TV3 or C4 at all (which happens to be pretty much all I record :@). I can either get TV1 & TV2 through calling 'tv1 tv2', or just prime calling 'prime' (ie what I am using in the .bat file as arguments for xmlTVNZ.exe). This isn't the first time I have had to jump though hoops to try and get what i want out of xmlTVNZ and I just don't have the time now. Is there a better solution for NZ? Or does no-one else have these issues?

I'm getting date and time parsing errors and can't get the epg going at all, so MAYBE you're not the only one... though I have the bad luck of only having done the install on thurs, so have nothing to compare it to and NEVER have had the epg working...

Yeah... The problem is not youre guide setup, its XMLTVNZ. The current version (of v2) is about 3months old. It hasnt been updated for a while due to XMLTVNZ 3.0 being developed. One of the major changes in this release is that you dont have to keep manually updating xmltvnz itself to be able to download data again (the sites the info is grabbed from keep getting updated to prevent this), XMLTVNZ3.0 will automatically pick up the new URL from the reven website as they change
