Epg Evolution Project


EPG Evolution

This is a plugin to dreambox with enigma1 for advanced epg functions. Instead of using the DVB EPG it downloads the EPG from a webserver giving you a alternative source for EPG.
The benefit is 7 days EPG, a easy overviewed gui and alot of smart functions one button away...


Installation:
Copy extepg.so and extepg.cfg to the plugin dir on your dreambox (/var/tuxbox/plugins/)
If you have a DM500 copy the remote.xml to /var/etc/epg/ to use < and > instead of the Bouquet buttons

To make the plugin start with the red button instead of the normal epg press red button(epg) twice and select External EPG.

Same here. Has anyone got any ideas?

[dctyper]

i can only get it working on sky channels ie sky sports 1

[southpaw83]

really frustrating, sounds great as well. Just to confirm people have got this working on virgin media? Can't get any epg at all

[dctyper]

only on certain channels ie sky channels...sky sports 1 2 3 movies ect

it works better on a box with hdd me thinks

go to sky sports 1 push yellow select epg evolution and let me know what happens

Absolutely nothing - no EPG on any channels

Weird

Seems interresting...... will try it right away

[sveinmer]

From where is the data collected? Just wondering as I didn't see any notes on this.

Anyway, I'll try it right away.

Tried it, good looking EPG, but no program data appearing. I like the TV in the corner with the program running, but would be great if the channel listings appeared. Any ideas?

thanks, i'd like to try it.
