any help

you did better than me with weekepg then, couldnt get it to work at all. There is only the Niablo image that has a 7 day epg, but AFAIK its only been released for the dreamboxes running enigma2

Funnily enough, My parents use there subbed box as an EPG for the 9100 super i put in for them.

I use the "Radio Times" on DM500/DM600 running open PLI, it should be possible to install it on a TM500 running PLI from the Blue button, not sure about other images.

Keep the data down to 3 days and store it in /tmp, then you can flush it with a re-boot if necessary.

well i did the install, used hip hop channel as said, and works, but was very slow and made the box lag, as in press a button and took 10 secs to work. maybe if i do it just for 1 day maybe better?

River-Rat · 31-03-10, 07:45 PM

For future reference if you press "OK" button it will choose between the left and right column and by pressing "1" it will switch to that channel.
