I am trying several EPG systems and would like to clear out the existing TV guide before each different method.

Is there any reasonable (! ?) to do this?

    the wording is pretty muddy, but ManualControl > "Refresh EPG", clears the EPG, does not touch schedules. quote from wiki "This button, when pressed instructs the TV Service to restart the EPG Grabbing function for all channels defined in TV Channels/TV EPG Grabber section. This does not trigger an xml import and will most likely delete all EPG information currently stored."

    Thanks. I'll give that a shot.

    In case you're interested, I'm having good success with "EPG Collector," and have another post about that.

    In the UK, the EPG transmitted in the DVB-T datastream allows each programme to have two genres -- a primary genre, and a secondary genre (i.e. a subgenre). The primary genre might be something like Film (or Movie in the USA). The secondary genre for Film might be something like: Action, Comedy, Crime, Fantasy, Romance, Science...
