EPG problem with NOVA-T-500 Tried everything!

[mxr156]

Hi as i can see you have had a large number of posts with problems about the EPG with GBPVR, well im afraid here is another , i have had my TV card for 3 months or so, it works perfectly fine with the WinTV program, i just really dislike the GUI of it, and decided to use GBPVR, which also works perfectly fine, and has a much better look and feel to it, i just CANNOT seem to get the EPG to work, and i have tried everything i have come across, i have tried using external programs using XML files, i have tried what it says in the survival guide, i have heaved through pages upn pages of google searches and unfortunatly not came across anything :confused: so i have brought my problems to people who know what there doing, what it is, is that when i try to view the EPG it gives me printscreen01 (attached) and i dont know how to get it to show the EPG, i have also attached my config.exe.log file and my config.exe-native.log file in the hope that someone could help?

I'm no expert, but before he comes along, have you tried turning off CRC checking in the advanced tab of the bda device in config?.
It looks like it has found the channels and you have mapped them, just missing the EPG data.

In the config app - directories tab, make sure the 'Recordings Directory' and 'Live TV Buffer Directory' both point to a valid directory...

Hit the 'Update EPG' button in you capture source settings, then repost your config.exe.log and I'll take a look. (its not shown in the post above)
