i have a few channels without epg mainly radio stations but it appears that x-newa only shows channels that contain epg data, is this by design or is there a setting i can change so the missing channels show up?
Not really by design but UJB's API doesn't provide this info. I am pretty sure if you check out NEWA in classic mode you will see the same thing After the modern interface came out I thought about adding it but there are some complications creating the required manual recordings via the API so I didn't bother.
