MacTF-EPG 1.4.2
It's been a while since my last post, but I should have a bit more time now to devote to fixing bugs and the like. So I've posted a new version of MacTF-EPG with a few tiny bug fixes, but more importantly updated the website which was lagging behind (it was still on 1.3 I think) and also updated the feed that the built-in software update checks. So hopefully any stragglers who don't check the Topfield forums will now be able to find the new version.

Speaking of which, I've added a quick link to the MacTF-EPG Now On menulet to the MacTF-EPG page. I'd previously only mentioned it in a post on the Topfield forum. This is just a quick little menubar app that displays a table of whats playing at the current time. It reads in the same TGD files used by MacTF-EPG, so you need to run them in conjunction.

While I'm on the topic of addons, occasionally people ask me what TGDPicker 0.2 is. This is just a small standalone TGD viewer app. It's where the original code for parsing/displaying the files came from in MacTF-EPG, and it hasn't been developed any further really. It's by no means necessary, but I still find it useful as if you have it around you can double-click on any TGD file and see what's inside, which is perhaps easier than opening it through a text-editor.
