When it's done.

I went through the same thing and I finally got an update via Radio Times this morning.

[quote="ds10"]There's a bug just use 2.7.5 until TV-Browser 3.0 RC2.[/quote]

When can we expect to see 3.0 RC2?

I'm glad it isn't a problem with TV-Browser. I've been using TVB since I switched from a PC to a Mac, and I rather like it.

[quote="stevelw"]Do I gather from your use of "again' that RadioTimes have caused this type of problem before?[/quote]

Very interesting. I've not come across this before. The BBC Backstage channels appear to be working just fine, whilst the RadioTimes ones, clearly, are not.

I appreciate all your help on this, by the way

Then I guess it's a problem with the RadioTimes data itself again. So it's not a TV-Browser problem.
If you find channels from [i]BBC Backstage[/i] that you can see then use them instead of the channels from Radio Times, you can see which data provider is used in the tool tip of a channel in the channel settings.

Network test was successful and the channels were listed. At that point the update ran, and kept re-running until manually cancelled. At this point the channels were still listed, but no programmes were displayed

Deleted both these folders. TVB then ran setup assistant, downloaded channel data, allowed me to select required channels, ran update to obtain program information and displayed a message that updated program information was available. Grid, however, remained completely empty for all channels.

Unfortunately not. The update listing windows just keeps recycling until I cancel it, and no listings appear.

java -jar tvbrowser.jar

The transportable version is for all platforms:
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/tvbrowser/tvbrowser_3.0-RC1_bin_transportable.zip

Just extract it and start the [i]tvbrowser.jar[/i], at least on the console it should work with, after you've changed the directory to the TV-Browser transportable directory.
[code]java -jar tvbrowser.jar[/code]

The only version of that that I can find appears to be for Windows rather than OS X

If you try the transportable package of TV-Browser 3.0 RC1 and don't import any settings do you get Internet connection?

Yep. Uninstalled the application and completely removed the TV-Browser folder in Application Support as well. There shouldn't have been anything left after that - unless the app uses some non-standard locations as well.

It must be seeing the internet at some level, as it is able to determine the calendars on my Google Calendar account and display them

It looks like TV-Browser isn't able to get an Internet connection.
Did you really deleted the whole configuration before you setup it again?
