Default EPG

Hi

Anyone know how I can get a better EPG on the 600 for the Freesat channels rather than now/next? I would like to be able to programme the recorder better.

Thanks

JD

Welcome to the forum Johnyd.

Because the 600 can get so much, the epg has to be flexible for each of the different providers. Also not all providers issue information.

Which satellites/channels are you interested in?

Hi Jim

Thanks for the welcome

Its mainly just the uk free channels like bbc, itv etc, just so I can programme the recorder side of it easier rather than having to set the timer?

Many Thanks

JD

I'm not an expert on EPG's for the Dreambox, but there are plugins to do this which pull the info from the internet. Try one designed for the 500, or maybe even one of the other Dreamboxes. You can't do any damage, but you may find that you run out of memory.

Anybody got a 'Sky' EPG plugin running here?
