Do you have any other pgn files like it? That file is very special case. While it does have a lot of useful information for special openings, they are rarely played. If your program can read EPD, you might get ECO_PRI.EPD. I doubt if the one on the site has all of the latest work. Thus far, I have re-analyzed every position that had a ce greater than one at 8 hours to find out if they really were serious problems or just something a bit too deep. Eventually, I will have the whole thing analyzed at that level. Before long, we will release a huge volume of excellent EPD data (it contains about two decades of PII 300 MHz CPU equivalent effort). But if your program won't read EPD, it won't help you much.
