Help Please With 7 Day EPG Guide

[tinbin]

I need your advice please again, its with the 7 day epg guide on any one channel. Before changing the vix image, I could go on to any channel and if I pressed the red button it would give me a 7 day tv guide on that channel. If I now go on to any off the channels press the red button no tv guide, I have downloaded the crosepg for OpenVix-3.0.574-vuduo.Is there something in the epg settings, that needs to be altered.

[septicsmurf]

Press ok to bring up infobar then press red. That should bring up 7 day epg for that channel.
That is presuming you have epg configured and downloaded correctly.

[DOUGALMCD]

Just press red when viewing channel and you should have single channel info. Are you getting weekly epg?

[tinbin]

If I go on to say sky1 and press the red button, I get a blank epg page with no channel info from say now and rest off the evening and in to next day and the rest off the week, I just get a blank page with EPG search on the bottom off the page with imbd.

[tinbin]

If I pree the EPG button i get a few channels with whats on now and next,but some channels there isnt any now and next.I hope this all makes sense.

You need to setup your epg. If you go into crossepg, enable opentv for 28.2 and set crossepg to download once a day that should sort it.

[tinbin]

Here is what is on the EPG Setup

Cross EPG Setup
Download on tune_ no Scheduled dowload _ once a day
Scheduled download at _ 0.1.00
Show as plugin _ no
Show as extension _ no

OpenTV Providers
CrossEPG_ openTV Providers
Ausat OpenTV [ optusc! on 156.0 }
Sky Italia OpenTV [ Hotbird on 13.0} Sky Uk OpenTV [Astra 2 on 28.2 } Tick
Sky Uk OpenTV { Astra 2 on 28.4 }

So you've only ticked sly uk and it's still not working?
Do you have the stb on or on standby for the scheduled download?
If it's in Deep standby it won't download!

[tinbin]

Thank you for getting back to me m8, when I turn the box off I just put it in to standby and not deepstandby.I don***8217;t know if this strange or not, but when I turn the box off on say BBC 1 when I get up in the morning the box will be on and not on that channel the channel I turned it off on.
When it has done this it***8217;s always been the discovery channel, should I take the 8gig usb stick out and try starting again.

[septicsmurf]

Have you set your epg location to your usb stick?
This woukd be the best option as you might not have enough flash for it.
Make sure epg isn't downloading to flash.

I hope this is helpful, and I hope I haven***8217;t been stupid in setting it up.

[septicsmurf]

I'm stumped. All looks ok so don't know what's wrong. I'd be tempted to start from scratch and flash the stb again.

[tinbin]

What about this m8.

Channel Preview mode -yes
Show Bouquet on Launch -yes
Skip Empty Services - no
Sort List By -Time
OK Button [Short} Zap
OK Button { Long } -Zap Exit

If that isnt it m8,could you please give me a guide on how to start with my USB Stick ,to setting up EPG the way you would please.

[septicsmurf]

All I change on epg settings is configuring it to download once a day, tick opentv and set to download to usb stick.. I leave the rest as is.

[septicsmurf]

Make sure usb stick is properly mounted as well.

[tinbin]

Thank you for help m8,I will keep trying with your help and advice .And you think the settings look ok ,from what I have done.

[DOUGALMCD]

Take the usb and format it then insert it into rear usb>press blue button>vix>mount manager>set up mounts>set as media usb then save>reboot box>Menu>set up>system>epg>settings>epg location=media usb>press ok then restart. Then go to epg>crossepg>configure=time you want download.>ok>update rytec>update xepgdb>tick open tv provider you want>save>exit>press blue>press crossepg downloader. Sure it's something like that hth

[tinbin]

Thank you once again m8,I will let you know tomorrow how I get on. Many many thanks, to every one for helping me.

[tinbin]

Epg is WORKING ,many many many thanks for all your help m8s .

[septicsmurf]

Good to hear you got it sorted.
Do you know what the problem was?

[tinbin]

I don***8217;t m8,I set it as before at media usb .I was so glad this time it worked, I couldn***8217;t have done it with out the help I got from every one here you included m8. I don***8217;t know weather I should put picons on or not, what do you think.

[septicsmurf]

Picons are better on usb stick than hdd, Otherwise every time you change channels the hdd fires up.
Download them from the server and choose the usb stick as the location.

[tinbin]

Thank you once again m8.
