I get an error 404: Not Found

This seems to be a bug in the Sky box software. It appears to forget about it's description files occasionally. So far, the only known fix to this is to reboot the Sky box.

The Sky Box is never found / It sits on "Waiting for Sky+HD Box" forever.

If you have a complicated network setup, you need to make sure you're on the same subnet as the Sky box, as the sky box announces itself every ~30 seconds to the network. If this makes no sense to you, then it's probably that you are using an older Sky box that won't ever get the picasso update, or if you do have the new black HD Sky box, that the software upgrade hasn't been released for your model yet.

The app fails to start with an import error for "IN" / It complains about IN.SO_BINDTODEVICE

It seems on Windows, the IN module for python doesn't come by default, or is unsupported, and thus the socket option IN.SO_BINDTODEVICE doesn't work. If someone wants to fix this and send a pull request i'll merge that into master, or i'll try to fix this myself ASAP.
