Freeview NZ DVB-T EPG only shows next hour of programs

[StephenW]

I have now mostly got things working so that I can use GBPBR 1.2.9 with my Hauppauge HVR-900 USB tuner to record from Freeview NZ DVB-T. I had terrible problems installing under Vista Ultimate SP1 until I turned off UAC - it seems that GBPVR is not storing things in the right places for Vista (programs can not write to "\Program Files" directories with UAC on). Installing using Run as Administrator did not work as when config.exe ran as part of the install, it was not running elevated. But as soon as I turned UAC off, the install was fine, and I am happy to run that way (UAC was driving me crazy with all its popups).

I still have to get Cyberlink PowerDVD 8 to get over the audio sync problems, but I am working on that.

But I have a mystery problem that no-one else seems to be reporting that I can see. Whenever I update the EPG, all I get is listings for the current hour or maybe a little more - basically the current program and the next one. I thought that the DVB-T EPG was supposed to be covering the next 7 days. I am hoping the attached logs can shed some light - I zipped them up immediately after I ran the PVRX2 System menu option to do an EPG update, and then shut down PVRX2 again.

They only transmit the "now" and "next" DVB EIT listings on the DVB-T version of freeview in NZ. The satellite version carries 7 days or so of the DVB EIT listings.

You'll have to use one of the other available mechanisms to get your listings for DVB-T. A few options for your listings are:

1) http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?t=30586
2) or http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?t=35271
3) or http://www.reven.co.nz
4) or http://www.geekzone.co.nz/forums.asp?For...icId=20400
5) or if you also have DVB-S, then 7 day listings can be extracted from the DVB-S listings using dvbtoxmltv.
