        Would be interested to hear what solution you used for the EPG, mate?

        I'm running a 500s (clone) on an old Nabilosat image (V08 Maxvar?). I can only ever get now and next, which isn't great. I'd be very happy with a 1 day guide, so can you point me in the right direction there?

          thanks guys.
          loaded up nilablosat image with the epg.

          best epg ive seen for the 500. and it works well.

          also used Home (DREAMBOX EPGS) for listings.

          (even though one was already posted here)
          also some other settings that may prove useful.

          thanks again.

                You can get a full 7 day epg with Pli-Jade.

                Download SQL lite, and SKY Epg, and away you go. Set it up in the menu.

                It works a treat, but only if you have a networked PC for it to download it to.

                  Yes Sqlite is the best epg for the 500s.
                  Do you have a 7 day epg on the 500s ?
                  I set mine to one days epg as I find the limited memory on the 500s struggles to handle larger file sizes.
                  I have ~170 channels mapped and that gives an epg.dat file of ~2.3Mb.

                      I have got the wife using week EPG 3.1b.......she accesses this by pressing the yellow button then selecting plugins..I think it uses the memory allocated to the radio player, as when this EPG is being used her Dreambox selects the radio bouquet function, and No tv is available to watch..it seems to work ok, and she is off my case now.. I am wondering if there is some sort of script i can run on my dedicated Debian server, and use this to download and store the listings. The wondering if i can access this with my STB's around the house to get EPG information..

                        Read here m8

                        You need to be running a Jade image (it has SQlite built in ) and you need an internet connection to fetch the epg once a day.
