    are u saving to hd or usb ?



    1. Make sure you have a USB stick or HDD attached for EPG data storage.
    2. Press Menu > Setup > System > EPG > Settings. Using left & right buttons either side of OK set the EPG location to /media/hdd or /media/usb. Other settings in this screen can remain as default for the purpose of this guide.
    3. Press green OK.
    4. Now select Crossepg and press OK.
    5. Select configure and press OK.
    6. Change scheduled download to once a day as for most users this is enough.
    7. Set scheduled download time.
    8. Press Red button for BACK.
    9. Select Update rytec providers and press ok.
    10. Select Update XEPGDB providers and press ok.
    12. Select the EPG source that you want to use for EPG data. Do not select more than what you actually use and need as selecting too many will cause memory issues. For the purpose of this guide we will select Open TV Providers > highlight open TV (astra 28.2), press OK to enable this provider and GREEN tick will appear.
    13. Press RED for BACK and keep pressing exit to exit all screen.
    14. Press Blue button > Select Crossepg and press OK. Crossepg will now download EPG data. Be patient and let it finish then the EPG that you selected will be populated.

          My DM800 was doing this earlier this week.

          After trying to download a few times with no success, I restarted the box and tried again. EPG then appeared.

          May or may not help you.
