[QUOTE="HTPCSourcer, post: 1261902, member: 74879"] This is not a hardware thing but a limitation of the xmltv plugin, which handles every record (and possibly data field) one after the other. Every single show information is handled separately and a record is written for each single show of your 649 channels for probably 14 days, which will give you approx 649 x 14 x 24 show entries, each with ~five fields = approx 1 mio. fields to be added to the database. For every record the SQL database is opened, the information written into the different fields, etc. The process is not a mass process where all data is written at once. The xmltv plugin that comes with the TV package is probably 10 years old and has not been touched since then. There may also be an issue with your import settings. Best would be to have the complete EPG deleted before adding new data. The EPG read process should be visible in the server log. [/QUOTE]
