[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1051828, member: 82144"] That's simply not true. The three main settings you have to help you are: [LIST=1] [*]grab EPG only for channels on same transponder [*]store data only for selected channels [*]enable/disable per channel [/LIST] [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/TV-Server_Configuration/05_DVB_EPG[/url] [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/TV-Server_Configuration/05_DVB_EPG/1_TV_EPG_Grabber[/url] This is all you need. This is inefficient. When you do this, you force TV Server to grab for each one of those channels. An STB would only grab from one or two to get all the EPG. To minimise the grabbing time. The more channels you tick, the longer the grab time. Therefore you want to tick as few channels as possible. Grabbing from one channel might get EPG for all your channels. So, you tick the one channel and untick "store data only for selected channels" so that all available EPG data from that frequency is stored. This is how an STB would do it. Nope. Your understanding is incorrect. Yes, it will store data only for the channels you select... but it will also grab on all of the channels you select. It is much more efficient to grab from few channels and store for all channels than to grab and store for your grouped channels. Already explained twice above. Again: each channel that you tick is another channel that TV Server will grab for; another ~3 minutes of grab time. The best configuration is to tick as few channels as possible to get as much EPG data as possible. It doesn't matter if you get EPG data for channels that aren't in your groups. [/QUOTE]
