EPG123 Red icon appears

Hello,
Haven't done much recording or watching in a while. Went to mediacenter to watch a show and noticed the red EPG123 icon in th lower right corner. Also noticed there was an upgrade available. Went to my guid and it is empty. I updated EPG to the latest version. saved and executed and still have the same issue. The trace log did not make much sense to me and hope someone may understand it. New season coming soon.

Thank you,

Your WMC database is corrupted and the import is failing. EPG123 v1.3.8 added some maintenance tasks (garbage cleanup) on the database every 5 days in order to try and avoid this.

To fix your current situation, open the client and click the [Rebuild WMC Database]. It should prompt to import your guide listings, just select the epg123.mxf file.

Looking through your log further, you should delete your current scheduled task and create a new one. There's been some work and fixes done surrounding the scheduled task and creating a new task with the latest version will get that all set for you.
