I'm having a slight problem with the epg.
All channels are functioning and apart from the epg there is no problem.

The problem with the epg is 119 fully populates, 110 does not it is usually only 2-3 hrs.
Have left it on CNN, WGN, no change.
Have channels showing no-info and will fill in if channel is accessed but only for the 2-3 hrs.
Have tried changing names of the sat from Echostar_8_10 to Echostar_8 does not seem to make a difference.

Anything I'm missing?

OK, been doing some research on this and have found two solutions.

Remember the problem is one sat 119 would populate the epg, the other 110 would not.

Solution 1

Install the factory bin xv3300v128_factory_061024
Then install the latest bin.
This is supposed to fix the problem, not the solution I used.

Solution 2

In the epg highlight a channel which uses the sat that is not populating on the epg.
Hit the find button, this then takes you to the best channel and triggers the epg update.
The longer left on this channel the better.
This method does work.

What I am doing now is using the Reservation function and having it tune to the best 119 channel at 2:00AM, then again using the Reservation function to tune to the best channel for 110 at 5:00 AM

At the moment the best channel for epg updates are:

Sat 110 Channel 119 BIOGR
Sat 119 Channel 145 ESPNA

Hope this helps.
