ExpressVU EPG only 2 days

[ZaHayNa]

Hey, I have noticed that the EPG only loads for 2 days on ExpressVU. I'm guessing this is because it's loading from the transponder that only has 2 days of EPG information.

According to lyngsat.com, this is the transponder that has the 7 day EPG (I think)

12268 L
tp 4

SR 20000
FEC 7/8

(If you search for A&E, it has detailed info.)

Is there any way to get GB-PVR to load the 7 day EPG?

I think they only use the standard DVB EPG for delivering the 2 days of listings. They use some other proprietary mechanisms for the large set of listings. These are unfortunately incompatible with GB-PVR.

Hmm... I was able to get the full 7 day listings in MyTheatre by tuning to A&E (same transponder as the 7 day EPG)...

This is because MyTheatre has support for the proprietary stuff ExpressVU do. GB-PVR doesnt.

Ah. Makes sense. Thanks

Why not use Zap2it to get your EPG info? I have Expressvu too and routinely download 8 days plus of the expressvu line up. A 14 day lineup is certainly possible.
