I would like to start using this TV listings utility again. Back in
March 2007, before I left Canada for six months, I was using Pocket TV
Manager 1.76 with XMLTV listings downloaded from Zap2It.

Now back in Canada, Pocket TV Browser is not working for me. The last
time I checked (October 2007), I don't seem to be able to download
using Zap2It. I have an account on Zap2It, my e-mail address, but
Pocket TV Browser rejects user names with an @ symbol in it. Leaving
my e-mail address's domain off, I still get nothing.

Is anyone able to offer me a suggestion as to what I can now do? Are
Pocket TV Browser users using another source of XMLTV listings?

Thanks in advance for any help--Pocket TV Browser was easily my
favourite application!

yes, Zap2it has dropped support for Pocket TV Browser and I think
everyone that is still using it has switched to Schedules Direct
http://www.schedulesdirect.org $20 a year. I did have some trouble
making the switch but don't recall the details now. sorry. Check out the
forums for handy tips or DoubleBit Software has a forum "Switching from
Zap2it to Schedules Direct
