    CrossEPG only fetches the data, it does not do anything with the display.

    In the Graphical EPG menu, there is an option to truncate text that is too long. It is enabled by default.

    You are using a skin which replaces system EPG files. Please flash image again and check with skins that do not include modified system files.

    That skin isn't modifying the files I think coloured buttons are default buttons. Isn't it base time?

    That skin replaces EPGlist.py. Whether a person has enabled the options or not, the files is changed and coded that has been added to image recently is removed.

    The "I" is displayed when not enough space to show the event. Press "I" to find out more. Or hover over it and look elsewhere.

    In the Graphical EPG menu, there is an option to truncate text that is too long. It is enabled by default.
    There isn't an option to do switch that off. There is an option for "Info icon width". You can change that to "0" if you want to completely switch it off.

    Correction, the skin does not install the modified EPG file. It is a separate installation.

    Sorry.

    changing to 0 didn't solve it although once i uninstalled the sqyq skin the default metrix skin worked fine so i re installed the skyq and all seems ok now
