Hi all

i hope to stop posting these annoyances, hopefully this is the last one

but i have GBPVR running just dandily with a single MediaMVP (for now) live Tv working well, but the EPG is not

im in the UK so am using the DVB broadcast to get my EPG, which it does appear to be getting, sadly all the listings are going into the wrong place
in my channel list, i have all the normal channels, but also most (if not all) of them again, called, for instance, ITV3 (audio #2)
all the audio #2's seem to be where the EPG is putting the listings, which is not very helpful, as these arent in fact channels that can be watched ad dont want to be flicking all the way to the top of the list to see wha tis on, then back down again to pick the channel i want - also makes it a bi hard to do recordings.

it does have some EPG items in the right place, sadly just things like QVC - to which there dont seem to be any of these audio #2 channels in my list

i tried removing all these 'dupes', but to no avail, - they didnt seem to go away - i took them off the channel tab, and also went into the capture sources and tried to remove them from there also. clearly as usual i am missing something simple - had also not particularly wanted to set up the XML EPG - which i sort of tried, but am a chump so didnt have any luck there

have had a read of the EPG bit in the wiki, but most of that seemed to revolve around the XML listings

any help much appreciated

thanks

I never had much luck getting the DVB EPG to work reliably.

XMLTVGUI is a much better bet and works very well for me. It's not so hard to configure.

Here is a link http://www.birtles.org.uk/xmltv/

When you do a scan, you're supposed to only enable the one version of the channel you're interested in. For example, just ITV3, not ITV3 and IVT3 (Audio #2). If you enable just the one, the listings should in the correct places.

I'd delete the gbpvr.db3 database file, then launch the config app and setup the capture source again, and only enable the one instance of each channel found.

I use the DVB-EPG (UK) and it works fine. Just don't select all the audio2 channels after scanning for TV channels.
