[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1300825, member: 141969"] For DVB-T/T2, EPG grabbing requires some care. You [i]should[/i] have only one channel selected as the "grab from" channel, and [b]BBC1 SD[/b] is recommended as it is more equitable than channels in the commercial MUXes. I don't have any experience of the DVB-S/S2 EPG, so cannot comment on the best way to grab that EPG. If you are currently grabbing from all channels ( :eek: ), you will end up trying to grab from a part-time channel, which (I think) TV Server will not be able to tune, as there is no video datastream . Would that cause the tune to fail? Probably. Would that lock-up the tuner? Quite possibly, if TV Server is not freeing the tuner correctly (i.e. a bug in TV Server or the TBS driver). -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
