<messages>

[neopelago]

Near the top of a raw XML file from TMS is an undocumented <messages> section, apparently added by SD, which tells me when my subscription expires. Is this section ever used for more-significant announcements from SD or can it safely be ignored?

It's generated by Tribune (their system has an expiration date field). I've never seen it used for anything other than the expiration date.

In XMLTV/tv_grab_na_dd I display it, which is probably a good idea, but since most of the time the scripts run automatically, a message there typically won't be seen by a human. We'll email you using your email on file if we need to tell you something.

If you supply an invalid date and time in the request, eg an end time past the horizon of available data, it will be corrected and a <message/> will be included stating that the date and time has been corrected and to what it was corrected.
