I stand corrected :)

Is this the reason that I wouldn't be seeing things like Schedule EPG data 
when using streamdev client even in TS mode? Aside from NFS sharing the 
epg.data file, is there a way around this?

Would it be possible to, for example, define a 'null' channel so if a client 
changes to a channel on a different transponder, then the server will show 
the blank null channel onscreen , and switch frequencies for the client?

Of course, "client can override" or similar would need to be a configurable 
option :)

Cheers,
Gavin.
