Hi I am using AJ's Sat List 30/08/2013. on some the channels the now and next info isn't being displayed. It keeps saying "No information available". E.g BBC 1, 2 etc

On certain channels the Now and Next info is displayed. Can someone tell me how I could go about fixing this please?

FYI I followed AJs instructions in regards to setting up the favourites correctly in the sticky.

Kind Regards

I'm using AJ's re-modified (http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/f184/aj-s-sky-uk-channel-list-discussion-thread-260273/index120.html#post2072370) as posted by Sattv5 on 25/08/13 and have no problems using regional (North West) versions of BBC1/2, ITV, C4, C5.

I think this is just one of the "features" of all Openboxes/Skyboxes.

I have noticed this on all the box/firmware combinations I have tried. What I notice, is that when I flick through the channels, the EPG is OK for the first 20 or 30 channels, then it disappears for most, but still shows on the odd few. The only way to get it back is to put the box into standby & back on again while it's on a channel that isn't showing the now/next info. It will then continue for the next 20 or 30 channels & I will have to go through the same procedure again.

Noticed this on S9, S10, S11, X3, & F3 boxes.

marmiteX1, what is the frequency of BBC2 that doesn't display now & next? You can get this info by pressing info twice and it should give transponder details like 195000/H/29500

Also, what box do you have?

hey guys, thanks for the input, much appreciated. Sorry for the delay in reply. I'm not near the Skybox F5s at the moment so i can't tell you the BBC2 frequency. But when I was going through the channels the issue seems to be gone on majority of the channels including premium and FTA. Maybe its the "featue" of the box has Hadron described.

FYI, I updated the channel list to the most recent 04/09/2013. I have the most recent firmware update by the way which i acquired from the official website.
