Zap2It changes their website guide interface

[dare2be]

...to the slower, clunkier, less functional metro-style interface. It appears you can't even get a listing of a single channel anymore.

What they should have done is have two 'avenues'. One page for true computer users, and another(this metro looking thing) if surfing from a phone or tablet. Only takes a bit of javascript to automatically redirect the user based on the OS.
Here, I'll even give it to 'em

this get my old set up over the years guide ......today

http://tvschedule.zap2it.com/tvlistings/ZCGrid.do

 

[dare2be]

THANK. YOU.

Except, you still can't click on a channel and get its listings...it goes to the "new" grid.

but, if you copy the link to the channel and replace "tvlistings" with "tvschedule" in the first part of the url, it works.

 

[dare2be]

So, it appears that "tvlistings.zap2it.com" is the Zap2It direct site, while "tvschedule.zap2it.com" is the Yahoo (delivered/branded) site...so who knows how long the Yahoo version will remain unchanged...

are you noting the channel shown on the left with the logo on the grid ? if so it works ok for me

looks like
http://tvschedule.zap2it.com/tvlistings/ZCSGrid.do?stnNum=70113&channel=388&aid=tvschedule

hope it last forever been building my list for 8 years i think now. it does mex , canada and south am stations.
would break my little heart if lost. lol

 

[dare2be]

yeah, it's working for me too. I don't know why it initially didn't work for me, but it's consistently working for me now, without having to change the url.

I sent them my dissatisfaction here: feedback@zap2it.com
