Hi there
Newbie post so please be nice
I have a freecom dvb-t usb stick that was originally supplied with wdm drivers and awful s/w.
finally freecom released the bda drivers and so i saw gb pvr as the sw solution.
Unfortunately the tv guide doesnt populate and the epg doesnt seem to work.
I have set the epg to dvb epg broadcast and when i try and 'import' the process freezes on channed 35 (iirc) with 1 second remaining. the pc remains functional but i have to cancel the epg import to continue in any way.
ive read the wiki on epg, is the xmltv import necessary in uk? i also tried this but the dos dialogue returned that the file could not be loaded as site or data unavailable (sorry memory is a tad woolly on the exact message)
help
