Frank, the <previously-shown> tag should be as reliable as I can get for the original air date. I will add the <date> tag but it should pretty much just be a copy of the <previously-shown> tag.
My enhancer is working with the Previously-shown tag already (if not exist, must be new)
I noticed in Schedules Direct data, that the <date> is pretty accurate, including dates for New Shows, where I can then compare to the Program show start time.
With the current MCE converter, as we discussed, the Previously-Shown tag has not been reliable... (Paid Programming etc would all be considered new shows...)
So unless you do not find a more reliable date in the raw mce data, you might not have to rework the converter...
