Sent you a pm ok.
thanks for all the help guys, got the box almost perfected but there's one thing that's still stumping me a bit, the EPG...?
I have cross EPG installed and am using the vix image but even though iv'e (think) set it all up correctly I can't get it to load the data in to the epg. It's downloading it fine and it says parsing summaries then when I got in to the multi epg it's all blank, but the funny thing is in the single epg it's got all the programmes for the next 7 days, any idead what i'm doing wrong? I've tried installing other epgs from tspanel but they are all doing the same. cheers!
just to add, when i check the crossepg directory via ftp I can see the following files and sizes,
crossepg.aliases.db 0KB
crossepg.descriptors.db 19,963.9KB
crossepg.headers.db 0KB
crossepg.indexes.db 0KB
crossepg.log 2.1KB
and the contents of the log file are

Click on cross epg---look for open TV----- look for Astra 28.2, tick it, then press the yellow button to download i think it is, it will change to a radio station, let it download
, check epg, you should have a full 7 day epg :-)
That sorted it mate!
Cheers for all your help, would have been pulling my hair out without it!
curious if people use surge protection and if not expect it to happen again.
Yes I use surge protectors. To be honest I know the problem wasn't a surge as the protector never tripped and all the fuses were fine on the plugs, it looks like it was damaged in transit and the damaged component shortest something
ah good you would be surprised how many dont.
they're kind of similar but do different jobs, a surge protector protects against voltage surges in the mains supply whereas a fuse protects against the device drawing more current than it's rating (usually due to a short circuit/malfunction etc).
some people see protectors as an expense too far but for 20 quid to protect your grand or 2 tv and the rest that goes with it, i'm of the mind it's an expense worth paying, an insurance policy if you like
same here and added a dirty power cleaner to improve quality of picture and every sat cable is protected also,its the same as driving a motorbike without a helmet.
