Aha, I dont think its a concidence that the listings run out on 31/12/07 with no listings for 1/1/08

I wonder is it the case that bbc have forgotten to configure it for 2008 yet

cripes,
unless they fix this today (sunday) or tomorrow (new years eve) - then my mythtv recordings will stop on new years day.

If it not fixed by then are they any alternative routes/sources of xmtv listings to getting listings updated?

G'day all,

Still no fix, you could update to http://www.bleb.org/tv/ this is available in knoppmyth.
It does not give all channels, but is better than none.

On Friday, I had the following...
It is being fixed and should be up and running soon. I'm afraid the
priority goes to the website first.

More from RT...

We have been aware of the service outage since 19 December.

Regular users of RadioTimes.com will be aware that the site has suffered
ongoing performance issues for some time now, and so in the run-up to
Christmas we completed a major technical upgrade to ensure that the site
was available for the 1,000,000+ users who visit us every month.

This was a huge technical undertaking and all efforts were concentrated
on achieving this before the busy Christmas period. Unfortunately this
move has affected the XMLTV service.

Work has already commenced on reinstating the service. We shall return
to this forum on Wednesday 2 January (when we can discuss the matter
with the head of the technical team) to confirm the date when it shall
be fixed.

Please note that Radio Times is actually part of BBC Worldwide, the
commercial arm of the BBC, therefore we are not funded by the licence
fee. Any profits we make are put back into the main BBC to help
subsidise the cost of the licence fee that you pay.

We appreciate your patience and continued support - thank you for using
RadioTimes.com.

Kind regards,

Thanks Stinga,
this does not look to promising, its not sounding like a fix is imminent. This is a real pain.

My current stable build (r5a16) does not support EIT - so it looks like im stuck without listing till the bbc get this fixed.
