    This might be a handy tool for people out there, it is a PC based TV Guide along the lines of DigiGuide.

    Hmm, I may download that.

    It doesn't look anywhere near as polished as Digiguide, but might be worth a look since it's free :)

    Sorry, should have said. If you pick UK, it does list RTE 1&2, TV3 and TG4.

    I am just beginning to play with it now. It looks alright so far.

    Yes, it seems to list all 4 Irish channels from my first 30 seconds using it.

    If you create Channel Sets it becomes less cluttered. I created 4:
    Regulars (bbc's, itv's and Irish channels)
    Music
    Movies and Sport
    Regional (BBC NI, Scotland, Wales and UTV, handy for sport)

    I see plug ins can be added, I must go look for some.

    Is this the right forum for this?

    Yup, creating sets on it now. It's not bad at all, considering it's free!

    Not as many options as Digiguide, but then you get what you pay for.
