    Missing EPG

    The epg does not show for some channels. See attachment - in this case it's Sky Sports Mix. I also have it on a couple Kids channels. I have deleted the epg using Remove epg plugin and reloaded but no joy.
    Any ideas ?

    Ignore my previous comment, just looked closely. Neither Sat or Cable.

    Yes use Echannelizer,4.0 when connected to your box then double click each stream where the EPG is wrong and choose 28.2 and the correct channel, this will populate it correctly. Then save back to your box.

    or select the 28.2 channel press and hold crtl and drag and drop to the channel thats missing the EPG ( this will associate the epg )save back to box

    hope this helps

    Thanks for that - I have been messing it with and manged to sort it a different way (wish I'd seen your post earlier)
    What I did was Update Rytec Providers (never touched this before) 43 updates were installed. This populated a whole load of XMLTV Poviders. I then enabled UK XMLTV and Vigin XMLTV and then hit Download now. Took about 15 mins for it to do it's thing but all was good after that.

    IMO, if you are going to download Rytec's data, you are better off using EPG importer, not CrossEPG

    1. They do not like CrossEPG
    2. CrossEPG locks up your receiver while it does its stuff, EPG importer does things in the background.

    I thought I just did.

    CrossEPG locks up your receiver until it completes. (I would suggest to only use Cross for OpenTV EPG. Don't use it for internet downloads unless it's at times you don't use receiver.)

    EPG importer does it's thing in the background.
