Zgemma H7 epg problem

    Hi All,

    I supplied and fitted a Zegemma H7 with Vix for a friend about 3 years ago. I use a Tiviar and have had zero issues with it for the past 5 years, however they are no longer available so the Zegemma H7 was a suggested alternative.

    Recently my friend is having trouble with the Epg guide not being displayed properly. It appears as there is only now and next displayed. I had him try a force epg download but he is getting a fail error notice. The box is not online . I used cross epg and open TV providers as this never fails on my Tiviar. Both are running the same Vix image.

    Any ideas.

    it is probably corrupt, clear the data, there is a plugin here

    Thread
    Remove EPG Script Plugin
    This is a script/plugin to remove EPG data. My thanks to Birdman for his assistance.

    The receiver will restart, so do not run it while recordings are taking place. It is a good idea to uninstall afterwards. The script run is as below.

    (Code, 20 lines)


    The sleep command is there to allow E2 to close. Otherwise the EPG held in RAM could be re-written.

    NB: There is a similar process in the System-tools plugin.

    Thanks jenseneverest fot your feedback.

    I am suspect of the sat signal feed to the box as I think the notice when download failed said something about failed to tune . I will have to call to the site when I am next in the area which is about 80 miles away.

    keep you posted.

    is it on a motorised dish ? crossepg has had a bug for many years where it fails to tune to the correct sat (28.2e in this case) from either east or west positions ..... i can remember which, a work around would be a zap timer to 28.2 before epg download.

    Or is a single tuner in use ?? then perhaps a clash with a recording ?? the recording will take preference in that case.

    Its on a fixed dish with twin feeds from 28e. I have the same vix image on my Tiviar and never a problem with the EPG. I will call to take a look next time I am in the area. It could be something simple.

    Keep you posted,

    Thanks again.
