Here is a quick question for you listing pullers out there. Is anyone able to pull the listings off of cogeco.ca for that particular cable company?

I haven't been following this thread because a lot of the programming parts are over my head. However, I can answer the postal code question.
Cogeco serves the Hamilton, St. Catharines area and one postal code is L0R 1C0. This is the cogeco screen for getting the specific listing http://tvlistings.cogeco.ca/ Rogers serves a lot more of Ontario and the Ottawa area postal code includes k1c 2n3. With Rogers, the company would have different lineups based on postal code and I couldn't find a link to anything other than zap2it for the Rogers listings.

The long and the short of it is, Canadian GB-PVR users are still out of luck UNLESS they have Windows Media Center Edition MCE or a MCE version of Vista... With about a month left. It's not looking good...

Which makes me want to install Vista, against all my other wishes... BTW - one solution would be to install Vista/MCE in a Virtual Machine / VMWare session somewhere in the house. That's what I'm looking into now.

The cogeco listings would be possible. The ability to see 6 hours worth of programming on one screen is a big plus. The details of a show might be a little difficult to grab but not impossible.
If I have time, I may tackle it. No promises though.

I use cogeco and I'm thinking without something like this then my PVR isn't going to be much use  If you could pull something together you would have my greatest appreciation!
