EPG Collector is a free, open source EPG grabber for OTA EPG for Windows. It receives broadcast data and creates an xmltv compliant file that can be fed into many popular players (eg MediaPortal, WMC7, DVBViewer etc).
It has around 2,000 users worldwide.
I have recently enhanced it to receive ATSC PSIP data and with the help of a member of another forum (DRCars) it seems to be working.
However it needs to be tested on different feeds as there are a number of options a broadcaster can choose so the testing so far has not exercised all the options.
Normally the software is released on Sourceforge but while this is still being tested I have uploaded the current test version to Rapidshare here.

It is very easy to use and doesn't install any drivers, filters etc or mess around with any system settings. Just run the install, set up a parameter file and run a collection. All you need is an ATSC tuner in your PC. It will run on Win XP or later.
If you have an hour free give it a try and post the results here. Any help would be appreciated.
