    Yeah it's the best you'll get really. I sometimes notice discrepancies between sky and cable listings mind you.

    Maybe you overlooked something/made a small error. As you have not posted what you have done/not done, unlikely anyone can help you pinpoint the solution.

    People who post details what guides they followed and exact steps taken and post screenshots/details of settings used, follow advice, answer queries, normally get their solution quickly.

    Here is a guide
    http://www.world-of-satellite.com/sh...off-the-stream

    There is only 5 days worth of EPG data on the stream

    If you are using EPG importer, best to disable the Virgin EPG reader in the image. Also, Jenseneverest scrapes/hosts two weeks worth of EPG data.

    Don't forget Sky uses a dynamic epg and can update or change epg information on the fly, Virgin can not to that as EPG updates are usually done between 0:00 and 6:00. (plus VM are not as on the ball when it comes to stuff like this).
