Attached, in case it is helpful is tvl.txt and tv-guide.htm.  Tvl.txt looks
OK to me.  Steps:

  a.. Fire up the browser (I.E. 5.x)
  b.. "Surf" to http://192.168.1.1:3000/main.htm (this IP address is already
"known" to ECS and as such I can bypass the password page).
  c.. Click on "TV-Guide."
  d.. The TV-Guide page appears after about 8-10 seconds.  The address bar
states: http://192.168.1.1:3000/tv-guide.htm.  Immediately under the address
bar is a long blank drop down box.  Under that is the "Now" drop down box
(for selecting days and times other than "now.").  Immediately under that
are the selections for the shows that are currently on TV, drop down boxes
for "Favorites" etc.
  e.. When I click on a show (one of the gray buttons), say for example
"09/02 6:30 PM 240 US Open Tennis 40" three things should happen:
  The status line in the IE window (very bottom of IE window) should
indicate "Chan:40."  This DOES happen.
  The top most drop down box should indicate that the station is being set
to USA (which is my channel 40).  This does NOT happen.
  The channel on the TV should be set to 40.  This does NOT happen.  No
signal is sent at all.

  f.. After about 8-10" I get the error message:

  ERROR:SCK_BF rxtmo (TCP_API_SRV)

Subsequent button clicks yield the above results EXCEPT that the error
message in ECS doe NOT re-occur.

I am running W98 and the most recent beta. My TVL events all come from
example.cfg with modifications as needed for my system (for example Home
Vision IR signals). I have not touched any of the events or items in a
couple of weeks.

Assuming that you have verified the contents of TVL.TXT,
please tell me exact steps required to re-create the problem
(and what is not happening that you expect to happen).
Thanks,
