[QUOTE="Andrew O'Neill, post: 1195335, member: 159844"] Hi guys, New install. My EPG grabber runs very slow and looks like it's timing out or something. I get EPG for just the next couple of programmes or nothing. How long should it take? When I watch it grabbing using the manual window, it seems to take a lot of time per channel and there are big gaps between each. I have only a few channels selected for store, invariant and English languages selected. EPG seems to work fine if I plug the same wire into my smart tv and of course it's perfect on the sky box it has spent the last 11 years attached to. I'm currently a SKY subscriber but have cancelled. Using the same wires from that and tuned to Astra ( I'm UK ). EPG grabber is enabled on both receiver thingummies. This is installed on just one pc. I have a DVBSky S952 PCIe card. The progress bars in the program viewer do not fill - any moving progress so slowly you can only tell when they start from nothing. I don't think most of them are progressing at all. When I switch between all channels and digital satellite in the tv guide I often end up with everything blank. My plan was to use one cable in the pc card just to record and the other directly into the smart tv so the missus can easily turn one thing on and watch live tv. Recording is the entire purpose of installing media portal and it is totally impractical without full epg. Also. When I boot up, the service monitor in the tray is always red and I have to manually start the service or I get a socket error when starting the front end. Any ideas? [/QUOTE]
