X2 Premium HD Jan-25 - Discussion

[el bandido]

Perhaps the X2 is not the problem. Did anybody bother to check and see if the EPG is working on other receivers besides the X2?
I checked Ebru using my Duo2 and do not find any EPG info on it except for IMDb. EB

Yep, totally forgot about that... Ebru and RT haven't worked for the last few days on mine either.

Sadly, it looks like this January version appears to have broken the EPG that the December version fixed on G-19. Ebru, JN1, RT, etc. no longer have anby EPG information.

Is it just me or my configuration?

thanks in advance,
FMW

Just revert back to the December file.

To be totally honest with you, if your reply to my earler post today about the EPG is any indication of the caliber of "experienced" users in this forum, and the level of alledged "help" that's considered to be the norm, I really don't see need for me spend time here.

If you want to ban me, then quite trying to threaten me, and so it. I have a recessive "ass kissing gene" so you won't suceed at trying to scare me into begging you to let me stay and stroking your ego. I promise to not loose any sleep over it.

FMW, I think if you would have taken the advice of Costa and went back to the December file, you would have found that the EPG for those channels does not work with that file either.
I do not run the X2 receiver on a daily basis, nor do I normally view the 97W Ku satellite. I did take the time to check for EPG data on two of the channels you mentioned using two different receivers. To Put it in a simple form, no EPG data seems to exist for these channels right now.

Sometimes the simplest solution is the one that is overlooked and is the one that is ridiculed.
Attached is a picture taken this evening using the X2 with December firmware, tuned to JN1 TV at 97W Ku. EB

jan 2013 firmware doesn't show any epg data either,so 1 year old firmware had the same problem if the epg exists at all.
I didn't try other brands of receiver.

No EPG on any of my STBs on G19 97W Ebru TV, Russia Today etc at this moment

The DW-TV channel on 103W 3740V-29270 is another place to test for a working FTA EPG.

Have not upgraded to the January firmware, using the Dec 18 2013, and the date is always changing to different months, days, and years.....But the HOUR or TIME is always on the spot. That is very strange about the Date information.

Is anyone having this anomoly with the December or the new January firmware.

Thanks.

[Costactc]

Using the January file, connected via wifi and both the date and time are spot on.

[ftanut]

Will give the January file a try. Just hate to loose my settings from the December firmware.

Costactc, do you keep you receiver on all the time?

Thanks.

[Costactc]

No, I don't keep it on all the time although it likes to turn itself on quite frequently. Save all your sat and channel info before upgrading.
