Since the DVR Schedule Direct Guide issue started, I've been using XMLTV to get my channel listing. It's been working well but some of my channels are missing Season/Episode information that has then caused problems with recording a show as a Series. It definitely has some episode information but others are missing.
I'm using tv_grab_zz_sdjson each night to obtain a new 10 guide listing. For shows where I get reception on two stations, one will have season information and another won't.

- no season/episode information

- Contains season/episode information
Looking at the raw XML, i can see the station with no episode information only has the "dd_progid" field, but ones with the episode information have the "xmltv_ns" field. What is also very odd, the station that sometimes don't have episode information will have it in other places. I can't figure out if this is a XMLTV or Schedules Direct issue or something else.
