[QUOTE="Ragnarok666, post: 634997, member: 98646"] Just 2 point that get me when I'm using the TV server apart from the general crashing and bugs. 1) Channel Scanning, When I have spent a few hours numbering my channels Rescanning changes the channel numbers all over a again so I make a note of the new channels and only rescan the transponders containing new channels after restoring the Channel data base from a backup. Surely it would make sense for channel scanning to leave the channel numbers alone unless something like the DJ blu's Sky EPG TSwriter is in use. 2) Programs over running, Media portals DVB EPG implementation does not check the EPG data on the same transponder for the channel it's on unlike just about every other DVB complaint receiver/software receiver out there. Unfortunately channels that transmit this data use this to prompt there PVRs for program overruns ( like missing extra time an penalties in world cup games) and late schedule changes due to over runs, Particularly the BBC and Sky in the UK. It would be really nice if Tv server could add the option to use this data for program over runs and schedule changes to adjust recordings automatically. Also the added bonus is if there is no data in the EPG for the current channel it would allow EPG grabber at least be able to get now and next data for the channel your on even ( like most other recievers and DVB software out there) if it's not any previous data in the EPG for that channel. I guess that's actually 2 requests in 1. Thanks for looking.
