[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1305713, member: 141969"] That is the configuration that I recommend, and which I use myself. (y) My HTPC is setup to grab the EPG at 06:00 hours each day, using idle grabbing. I have just checked my EPG to see if the channels that you mention are missing some EPG: [LIST] [*]The "U&W" and "U&Eden" channels both have a full EPG, i.e. the EPG for the remainder of today (Tuesday), plus a full 7-day EPG for Wednesday (tomorrow) to Tuesday of next week inclusive. "U&W" is broadcast in the 506 MHz MUX (a DVB-T MUX), and "U&Eden" is broadcast in the 474 MHz MUX (a DVB-T2 MUX, although "U&Eden" is SD, not HD). [*]The "Quest+1" channel is broadcast (I think) in the very-low power local MUX (Rowridge transmitter), which I cannot receive at my location, so I don't have it in my EPG. [/LIST] One possible cause of your problem is that you are not grabbing for long enough. I have my HTPC setup with a 60-minute timeout for idle grabbing. This does not mean that TV Server will grab for 60 minutes -- it means that TV Server will grab for [i]up to[/i] 60 minutes. TV Server knows when the "EPG carousel" has rotated once, and stops grabbing when the start point is reached again. -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
