Thanks Dave, it was me who asked about Videogame Nation. When I asked 
about it, I said that the UK_RT (PA) source used generic descriptions 
for all episodes, however looking recently, for the last few weeks the 
descriptions have been specific about individual episodes, so moving to 
Atlas or SD looks like a backwards step.

However, UK_RT didn't have episode numbering, which I notice Atlas has 
and SD doesn't. I'm sure we're in season four of Videogame Nation, so 
the "episode-num system="xmltv_ns">3.17.</episode-num>" is interesting. 
I notice "<sub-title lang="en">Episode 18</sub-title>", so maybe 
xmltv_ns counts from zero, so 3.17 is season four episode eighteen.

Still, this is mostly academic, as Metabroadcast's T&Cs sound like using 
Atlas is out of the question, unless someone can create and monetise an 
"app" around it at a reasonable cost, so I'll almost certainly have to 
go for SD.
