Sky IT / UK / UK Freesat EPG (1 Viewer)

[Jay_UK]

DJBlu,

Thanks for letting us know it will be fixed

I personally dont have any EPG data! (must be incorrect EPG channel settings)

Can some please reconfirm the channel (and tuning details) I need for Freesat EPG data????

Thanks,

J.

As a temporary workaround I re-installed RC1, populated the EPG and then upgraded to RC2 so at least theres a week of EPG data. It was worth doing actually as my channel list was out of date (ITV1 hd, sky news HD and sky 3d(!!) are now on the epg for anyone who doesnt know)

I am actually having trouble with md*pi, it was perfectly stable in RC1, but I keep getting corruption and a stuttering picture on encrypted channels every few seconds in RC2. The logs for the smart card look fine as usual. If anyone has any info/same problem regarding this please pm me.

There are two radio channels that contain the EPG for fta stuff, one called EPG Background and one called Freesat Info. The Freesat Info one replaced the old Brit Shorts TV channel for freesat EPG.

I don't know the tuning details at the moment I'm afraid, but they both appeared in a normal scan for me.

Attached TSWriter and TVLibrary for RC2

I haven't tested the files as I am still using RC1. Any problems then let me know.

Thanks.

Hi DJBlu

First time user here, and have a few questions that can't find the answers to, not necessarily problems but am not sure of the correct behaviour

1. If I rename the groups_uk.dict to groups.dict should the channels be in the EPG under these groups or do I have to manually setup these groups and move the channels to them?I have found the answer to this I should have checked create groups for each provider in the scan config screen

2. I cannot now use the alert me function for reminder when a pro gramme starts is this correct? No isn't correct for some reason the option for this got unchecked in the MP Configuration working OK now

3. This may well be a problem in the regions.dict i removed the # from 4097-10=England (BBC) / South East (ITV) but seemed to get ITV1 Wales, also amended the sky.cfg to not use the Sky channel numbers eg GetSkyNumbers=0 but still got the sky numbers

Thanks in advance for any enlightenment

Sony a one more

I followed you guide that you linked to above and did the advanced scan on that one transponder you say but only got 2 tv channels and a few radio I then changed that and scanned all on 28.2E which seemed to do the job, I may well have done something wrong but thought
I would let you know OK Tried again with single transponder scan and that now seems to have worked fine also got BBC3 and 4 ok

Another question now for the EPG do I just need to select EPG Background to populate? as their is now no Brit Shorts

Hi DLBlu,

No go on your RC2 release

When I try and start the TV Service, it errors saying didn't receive a timely response (the error reply is returned quite quickly).

Many thanks,

J.

Seems OK here. Picture a bit dark though.

 

[Jay_UK]

Ehhh?? Picture dark?

Are you in the right thread?

Thanks,

J.
