Hi Graeme,<br>
<br>
The DVB-T stream only has the NowNext information, no standard EIT
based EPG, (to save bandwidth) the DVB-T EPG is handled by their MHEG5
middleware.<br>

<pre wrap="">Hi everyone,
Thanks for the welcome and advice. Funny story really. I had used up
my broadband allowance downloading everything to install my system so I
hadn't tried the following until after I posted the other day. I added
the suggested repository and left the system to download the updates
(18MB at dialup speed) and when I got back later it scanned and found
all the channels! Yay. And Kenneth you're right, everything does work
out of the box pretty much (I did turn on the LNA already). Only thing
now is it seems there is only one days worth of EPG being broadcast.
I'm used to the DVB-S where I had 8 days worth and it was great because
you can set all your fav shows to be recorded. Is there a way to fix
this (download data from elsewhere)?
Also if anyone wants any feedback on anything let me know. My server
doesn't have a graphics card so I may not get good HD playback on the
server itself but the idea was to watch it elsewhere so hopefully there
won't be a problem streaming video.
Ross

For the DVB-T EPG feed Freeview in their wisdom decided to only include
a time windowed EPG feed, so you only get an hour or two at a time.
I fixed this by using tv_grab_nz to pull the xml EPG for the Freeview
channels from the internet, and mythfilldatabase to populate mythtv with
7 days of data.
If you have DVB-S as well as T, then you could use epgsnoop to massage
the EIT from the satellite.
