    EPG issue

    Hello again Folks.

    HD51 is having an EPG issue which seems to be affecting only 1 channel. I'm using CrossEPG which is working well across most channels. However 1 channel is not updating.

    When I first set up the receiver it appeared to be working fine, but I noticed a couple of days ago that info for Saturday was missing, but only from Ch 4 HD listings. All other data for every other channel is populating fine.

    How would I go about troubleshooting that?

    Cheers,
    xpr

    Could it be that channel4 HD is no longer on Freesat?

    OK - I expect you are correct as I set it up with the Freesat bouquet.
    Will do a spot of reprogramming!

    Thanks gents.

    Surprisingly I was already using the Sky FTA Autobouqet.
    I erased it, then remade it, and set the Import EPG to do a fresh import 5 minutes later.
    Unfortunately the problem persists...

    When I try to get to CrossEPG settings in the plugin menu it doesn't go anywhere.
    I must have got another setting out of whack somewhere...

    Further suggestions?

    Using Sky UK FTA channels, I have CrossEPG & OpenTV to obtain my epg which I have stored to my HDD.

    Figured it out. Was a newbie error. I hadn't enabled Sky within the OpenTV menu.
    All sorted now. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction :-)

    Sorry to bump this thread after so long, but I recently upgraded by Vu+ Solo2 to OpenVIX 5.4.003 (I think it was on 5.1 or something like that before), and have the same problem. I use Freesat and have all my channels setup from that, but have added Channel4 HD from BSkyB to my Bouquets using the Bouquet editor. This works fine and I can view C4HD just fine, but I don't get anything in the EPG.
    How do I get this working?
    Thanks

    How are you obtaining EPG?

    You can get the Sky EPG data using:
    Enabling OpenTV EPG reader in image zapping/selecting IEPG data service for 120 seconds regualalry
    Using Cross EPG Downloader using OpenTV EPg provider

    Thanks - you pointed me in the right direction. Cross EPG was missing for some reason. Re-installed it and I now have the EPG for C4HD again! Thank you!!
