By Yesterday I don't mean the day before today, I mean a channel on Freeview, the UK's DVB-T network :).
VDR doesn't seem to be able to get the EIT data for the Yesterday channel. The code I've written for boxstar can grab it OK, so I don't think there's anything special about the channel. Does VDR try to scan the EIT for programmes on other frequencies as well as the currently tuned one?
In fact, it isn't just Yesterday, the entire Freeview network has no EPG in VDR. I can tune to the channels though. The DVB-S EPG is present though.
Yes, it does. You just need to tune to the transponder that carries the actial EPG data (or let VDR do an EPG scan).
If VDR does scan the EIT for other transport streams why would I need to tune to the one carrying the channel whose EPG I want? In theory the EPG for the entire network should be available on each and every transponder/frequency.
