Tvgids.nl broken again

At tvgids.nl something probably has been changed in their infrastructure, because Webgrab Plus no longer receives guide data.
Hopefully someone can figure out what's going on.

Sorry, you're right, it does still work. Problem was that I temporarily had disabled the MDB post-processing, but since my EPG guide uses the output file of the MDB-process, no new programs were found and therefore got me an empty guide..

What I was wondering though, if it is possible for the grabber to grab more of the available description info? Take for instance:

https://www.tvgids.nl/film/charlie-s-angels-full-throttle?oss_result=3
I've added a screenshot of this as well.

The only part of all this info that gets grabbed is the bottom part:
De angels zijn terug! TIP Deze engeltjes weten van wanten in Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle. Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle is een film (actiekomedie) uit 2003. Deze film wordt uitgezonden op RTL 7 en is te streamen op (o.a.) Pathé Thuis, iTunes en NLZIET ( klik hier voor alle streamingdiensten) De regie is in handen van McG en in de hoofdrollen spelen onder andere Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore en Lucy Liu. TVgids.nl beoordeelt Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle met 2/5 sterren.

And while we're on the subject: Can it be that something goes wrong in the process of grabbing consecutive episode information?
For example, when Comedy Central broadcasts a couple of Friends episodes on a particular night, they all get the same episode ID. Is that because of something in the grabber or is that a problem of incorrect information at the source (TVGids.nl)?

Separating info in description is always a nightmare, unless website uses always same methods. For episode with same number i will check, but as i remember is the site messed up, will check.
