    EPG 1 hour out after change to BST

    Aftter change to best on Sunday the peg display is 1 hour out (on et9xoo vix 2.3)

    Have tried deleting all peg data file and reloading, changing time to transponder and also gmt+1. Even gone as far as to do a clean flash. No luck. Have seen someone else similar but no sure fix yet

    The box should take the time from the transponder.
    Have you rebooted after using a local channel as the last channel viewed?

    Right, I've managed to get mine sorted. I had to reflash and re-install all of my settings from scratch. Using settings/image from a back-up didn't work. I also used the image from 28/01/12 which can be downloaded here.

    All,
    Were ye just deleting the epg.dat or using this in telnet.

    init 4
    Delete epg.dat file in explorer
    init 3

    If you just delete the file then its reloaded from memory.
    To ensure all is ok you should have no epg when you reboot.
    Then re download epg.

    I will try this "init 4" and "3", as yes tried deleting in explorer and had local stations ie, BBC1. Dont want to use transponder as given have 2 feeds of different dishes, my favourite bouquet has channels across different sats and there tp's

    I think you are giving god advice on the "init" front as i have seen that elsewhere and wondered what it did (Unix is not my specialty). I had already re-flashed, so assume it does not wipe all data as would have expected that to work.

    I had the same problem did the usual things all to no avail. Just checked it and everything is fine perhaps it was a server fault.
