[QUOTE="StarTV, post: 246136, member: 67767"] Reading these replies has opened my eyes to other aspects of MP; in particular TV Server. I run My TV from the standard MP install but it seems that if I want more functionality I will have to install TV server. Bloody hell, there goes another few hours of my time. I must learn to resist the tinkering temptation. Last night I checked the 'get DVB EPG' box and it did populate the EPG after about a few minutes but there were missing channels. I think it was Ten HD, ABC 2 and SBS. Are there any extra settings that are required to make MP pick up the gaps or is this all done automatically?
