[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 788881, member: 82144"] Hi gigabyter64 Freeview broadcast 2 kinds of EPG: MHEG and EIT. EIT is a long-standing EPG standard; MHEG is very new and is used for enabling "interactivity" as well as delivering EPG. On satellite Freeview delivers a full 8 day guide via EIT and MHEG. On terrestrial they deliver the full guide via MHEG and only now/next info via EIT. MP doesn't support EIT at this time, so that is why you have the problem. Many people simply [URL="http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/TV-Server_Configuration/03_TV_Channels/1_Combinations"]combine[/URL] the satellite and terrestrial channels so that the sat EIT guide. I prefer not to do that, so I use the [URL="http://sourceforge.net/projects/epgcollector/"]EPG Collector[/URL] in combination with the built-in [URL="http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/141_Configuration/TV-Server_Configuration/13_Plugins/XmlTv"]XMLTV plugin[/URL] to get my guide data for both sets of channels. mm [/QUOTE]
