TV Server not grabbing EPG from DVB-T

[Hojou]

I've got this problem from the first time i started using TV Server (i've been updating that and MP throughout the last 3-4 months or so). I'm using DVB-T in denmark and there are these four channels DR1, DR2, TV2 Østjylland and TV2 Midtjylland. The last two are basically the same - they share most the programs except regional news.

At first i thought the two TV2 channels were messing up things, but most the time it's DR1 and DR2 that is lacking EPG information. I tried setting the timeout for the EPG grabbing high, i allowed it to grab while timeshifting etc. The EPG is still badly updated.

Most the time no channels are updated, sometimes one of them and a few times i've been lucky enough to have them all updated. Now it *could* be the DVB-T signal missing out on the EPG info, but the lack of EPG started the day i switched to TV Engine from the normal MP 0.2.2.0. Actually i did try MP 0.2.3.0 a brief period where i never got it to recognize my tv-card - so that does leave a timeframe for something to change in the DVB-T signal - i just find it suspicious

Anyways i don't know if this is a general problem (i did read other threads with similar problems, and people telling them to increase the timeout on the grabbing) or if it's specific to certain countries/areas/DVB-T signals.

Any input would be appreciated!

We would need to see you tvserver log files.
There is DVB EPG fix coming up in the next build of TV Server. Fixes the grabber getting in to an infinite loop and never grabbing. not sure if this is the problem you have though. It will be in MP RC1; next week sometime I guess.
