[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1253178, member: 141969"] Yes; you should [I]deselect[/I] all channels except for the one that you are going to use to receive the EPG (I recommend "BBC1" or "BBC1 HD"). You should do the same for the radio channels on a later panel. No; you should [I]disable[/I] that setting. There is a subtley here that is not apparent from the words on the various panels. If that setting is enabled, you would need to select all of the channels whose EPG you wanted. But if you did that, "TV Server" would receive the EPG [I]one channel at a time[/I]. Example: it would tune to "BBC1" and receive the entire EPG for "BBC1" (throwing away the EPG for the other channels), then it would tune to "BBC2" and receive the entire EPG for "BBC2" (throwing away the EPG for the other channels), then it would tune to "BBC4" and so on. So instead of receiving the entire EPG once, "TV Server" would receive the entire EPG n times (where n is the number of channels that you have selected). The post that I linked gives the detailed instructions (although not the detailed explanation!): [URL='https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/epg-for-dvb-t-not-working.134003/#post-1179636']EPG for DVB-T not working[/URL] -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
