Its just a part of the nix eternal learning curve....

Yes.

Because the 7 day data is only broadcast on DVB-S and not DVB-T - so it (currently) has to be got from some where else...

I was planning to run up DVB-S sometime for the broadcast EPG data, perhaps someone already runs both simultaneously?  Presumably it 
works ok?  Have you considered this (using both) as an option?
