[QUOTE="PureLoneWolf, post: 828012, member: 24868"] ..and I am looking for some recommendations. I know from many years in IT that "start as you mean to go on" is the best mantra for this kind of stuff...so I could do with advice. I am living in Germany at the moment and my satellite dish gets installed tomorrow (and pointed to UK FreeSat). I assumed that EPG data would be live (as with set top boxes etc), but what I am reading suggests that this is not quite the case. So I have a couple of questions 1) As I am living in Germany, but connecting to UK satellite, is the EPG, that ships with MP, clever enough to use the correct time for me. E.g. TV Show that starts at 20:00 in the UK would display as 21:00 to me. 2) What's the closest to "Live" EPG that I could get? (refreshed on launch of EPG) 3) Assuming that the standard EPG doesn't do either/both of the above...which method would be recommended to get closest? I should add that I will rarely record, but if I do..it will be one-off scheduled recordings. Many thanks in advance [/QUOTE]
