[QUOTE="Frodo, post: 88715, member: 10277"] You didnt read before you gave an answer or i completely misunderstand you Let me try to give an example Say we have 2 muxes mux A : has channels 1-20 mux B : has channels 21-40 Now with this situation, the epg grabber will work like this: 1. it starts grabbing epg for channel 1 (on MUX A) 2. suppose receives the epg for channels 1-20 3. it updates the database for channels 1-20 Next, it will see that 1-20 are already updated, so it continues with channel 21 4. it starts grabbing epg for channel 21 (on MUX B) 5. suppose receives the epg for channels 21-40 6. it updates the database for channels 21-40 7. all epg has been received. epg grabber waits for 4 hours before starting again Now in some countries things are different A channel will contain epg for other channels , but not for all channels In this situation the following happens: 1. it starts grabbing epg for channel 1 (on MUX A) 2. suppose receives the epg for channels 1-10 (not a complete mux!) 3. it updates the database for channels 1-10 Next, it will see that 1-10 are already updated, so it continues with channel 11 4. it starts grabbing epg for channel 11 (on MUX A) 5. suppose receives the epg for channels 11-20 6. it updates the database for channels 11-20 Next, it will see that 1-20 are already updated, so it continues with channel 21 7. it starts grabbing epg for channel 21 (on MUX B) 8. suppose receives the epg for channels 21-30 9. it updates the database for channels 21-30 Next, it will see that 1-30 are already updated, so it continues with channel 31 10. it starts grabbing epg for channel 31 (on MUX B) 11. suppose receives the epg for channels 31-40 12. it updates the database for channels 31-40 13. all epg has been received. epg grabber waits for 4 hours before starting again After explaining this, i fail to see why your method: 1. is more efficient 2. takes in account that a channel might not contain the full epg for all channels in the mux Frodo [/QUOTE]
