i have a nearly perfect epg but only the data of channels zdf/3sat (german on astra 19.2e) is missing. i have activated all channels and ALL languages for epg grabbing because if i only use the 4 or 5 german languages epg is only grabbed on nearly the half of the channels.
in addition to this i have set the grabbing timeout to 15 minutes.
any ideas?

    There is no clear cut way of fixing this, that i have seen.

    I had the same problem with 1 channel, until i deleted the database and started from scratch.

    Could not see anything in the db that would have stopped that one channels epg from downloading though.

    Is there anyway you can you confirm that epg data is actually being transmitted for that channel, maybe with the TVcard own program.

    I have this issue sometimes. I found out that for the desired channels a program data is stored. The problem is that this program data are far in the future (~2060) and the TvServer only inserts new program data into the db.
    In this situation I delete these rows directly from the database and everything is working again.

    Hope that help to find the reason for this.
