Thats exactly what I'm after would keep the missus so happy especially with the full epg and then can you record etc from that info ?

[shappaeye]

contarts to MAX and Naiblo for this excelent code work. I understand that his code is also in the Enigma1 build but focused on SkyIT, has anyone got it to work on the SkyUK feed by changing to the OpenEPG channel suggested in the how-to guide for the Enigma1 users?

[alunfennell]

shappaeye firstly welcome to Digital-kaos, The Sly Italy Epg weekly download has been around a while, but as for the Sky UK version nothing has been available previous to this newly released software from the Nabilo Image team, hopfully in the future it will reach the other Dreambox models once the size of the addon can be fitted onto the limited Var file (unlikely in my opinion) but who knows.

Hi Guys,

what is "epg" and what does it do? Sorry I am new to all of this.

cheers

[caveman_nige]

EPG = Electronic prorgram Guide is an digital guide to scheduled broadcast television or radio programs, typically displayed on-screen with functions allowing a viewer to navigate, select, and discover content by time, title, channel, genre, etc. by use of their remote control, a keyboard, or other input devices such as a phone keypad.

[shirehorse99]

has anyone got this working correctly?

with mine it is downloading the epg but not displaying it until i press the info button and then single epg.
But about 10% does actually work ok

I dont know if this correct or not or i need to adjust some sort of file in the var folder .

Its a great improvement for us DM7025 owners but ive gone back to LT5.4 and for the moment - my xml grab from Radio times is working great

How To Download SKY UK EPG with Nabilosat Black Hole images

Nabilosat Black Hole images for DM7025, DM800 and DM8000 include an exclusive feature: download the weekly SKY UK EPG via satellite, and have it integrated to Enigma2. This guide will briefly show how to complete the procedure.

The EPG is downloaded from the satellite signal available from the radio channel Hip Hop, frequency 11778, symbol rate 27500. There are 2 options to zap to this channel.

1) Edit your settings

Open your settings with your favorite editor, and add the radio channel to any TV bouquet. This procedure will give you the option to quickly zap to Hip Hop

2) Enable Alternative Radio mode

Press MENU, and browse to SETUP>SYSTEM>CUSTOMIZE and set Alternative Radio mode to YES. This procedure will give you the option to zap through radio channels in radio mode, and have the full MENU active like in TV mode

Then, press the Blue button to access to Nabilosat Blue Panel

http://img141.imageshack.us/img141/5050/shot2rh1.jpg

And press it again to open the Nabilosat E2 settings. Move the cursor to Nabilo E2 EPG, and press OK

http://img371.imageshack.us/img371/3366/shot3eq3.jpg

The Nabilo E2 EPG Settings panel will open

http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/9826/shot4yn0.jpg

Press the red button to modify settings. Here you can enable/disable the loader, select the path where to save the EPG, and select the Hip Hop radio channel. Press the red button again to save your settings. Enigma2 will be restarted.

[^^MaXiMo II^^]

Once Enigma2 has restarted, go back to Nabilo E2 EPG settings, and press the yellow button. The channel list will popup. With the keys left/right set each channel to YES if you wish to download its EPG, or to NO if you wish to exclude it. Scroll up/down with the keys up/down. The Update channel feature, available through the green button, is useful when the provider completes a channels retuning. The list will be automatically updated, upon pressing the green button, and will include new channels and new frequencies.

The previous steps complete the setup, and are necessary only to modify settings such the destination path or channel list.
To download the EPG, simply zap to Hip Hop, wait for the popup window

Wait for the countdown to be over.

You will have updated your Sky UK Weekly EPG, and you will be able to browse through it with GraphMultiEPG, MultiEPG and the other Enigma2 EPG features.


Many thanks to MaxZ4 for Sky UK loader.
Enjoy Nabilosat Images.

can this be used with pli-jade on dm500s aswell ?

[^^MaXiMo II^^]

can this be used with pli-jade on dm500s aswell ?

No because This is not a plugin
NabiloEPG is integrated into the image

[Fano]

can this be used with pli-jade on dm500s aswell ?

It can .
You need to use the WeekEpg plugin though.
Indeed that plugin, WeekEPG, has been coded by the same person who worked on the integrated EPG for Nabilosat images, MaxZ4.

1) This seems to be important!
Make sure you're in Radio Mode, tuned to 'Hip Hop'
The service for Hip Hop for me reads as the following data, but of note, I don't receive any audio:
Provider:BSKYB
Video PID:none
Audio PID:0d2eh (3374d)
PCR PID:0d2eh (3374d)
PMT PID:0132h (306d)
Transport Stream ID: 07d4h
Original Network ID: 0002h
Service ID: 0fd1h
Namespace: 11a0000h

Satellite: 28.2 Sats
Freq: 11777v
FEC:2/3, Symbol Rate 27499.


So Once you're happy you've got the channel set:-
Yellow/WeekEPG.
From the EPG listing, press exit, then Setup.
Settings as follows:-
10 TStart Offs 10 TEnd Offs
0 , Local Time Offset Unticked
Font Size 20/18
Show Current Channel Ticked.
Use Offline Data Ticked.
Offline EPG Storage Path
/hdd/weekepg
Then press RED to choose the channel, and select Hip Hop.
Set Language to UK if necessary.
I would then press Save (blue)
Then back into setup
Finally Green to run the Log, and Yes to Confirm.
It takes about 30 seconds to grab the titles, then perhaps a further minute to grab the Summary Info.

As previously stated, you should get 50,000+ titles. If you've only got 3000 is, and no summaries, somethings not working.

Has anyone been able to add channels to those already covered in the channels.uk file ?

I am looking to add the Irish channels RTE One,RTE Two,TV3 and TG4 and thought all i needed to do was add these to the channels.uk file.

[djmist]

Im going to try this

[djmist]

I could not get this working.

I cant find Hip Hop channel and have been told it no longer exists.

What is the correct channel now for the epg.

Also how do I change the epg settings on Nabilo black hole v0.11. Its set to hip hop as default and I can not find any way to change.

A bit of help from peeps above who got an epg working would be great.
