</div>I know you can get the Freeview EIT data from their satellite<br>
channels. But can you also get the Sky EIT from their satellite<br>
channels even though the video is encrypted? What do you need to do<br>
that?<br></blockquote><div><br>Yes, that's where the <a href="http://epg.pvr.geek.nz">epg.pvr.geek.nz</a> feed came from. You need epgsnoop or tv_grab_dvb or something else that knows how to grab the EIT data and write it out as an xmltv file. Search the archives - I think this has all been covered before in some detail.<br>
