I work for a television station, and we enter our PSIP information into ProximityTV, which I believe owns TitanTV. To access Proximity, you have to be an employee of a station, but I'm pretty sure it's only so we can enter the info. Anyone can create an account at http://www.titantv.com/ and enter a zip to get your local guide. I have a Hauppauge TV tuner in my pc at work (running Winblows) and I can schedule recordings through Titan. I'm not sure how we could get a data file from Titan to replace Zap2It's. Someone may need to write a program to strip out all the pertinent info that is displayed on a webpage when you enter a zip code and feed it into a file format just like Zap2It's. Create a cron job to run it as often as necesary and hopefully we would all be back in business.
Hope this helps!
