UK FreeSat HD EPG Now/Next only or none at all

Marc Ominus

Hi,

I am running HTS Tvheadend 4.3-1983~gb8710206e

My setup only shows on UK FreeSat HD channels Now/Next in EPG.

I have set the EPG grabber to "EIT: EPG Grabber" (Configuration - DVB Inputs - Muxes)

for my specific HD muxes (that are not part of UK FreeView HD).

Some do not even show Now/Next :( [France 24 HD, CNN HD, Iran Int'l HD, PCNE HD, WION HD and FreeSports HD]

300 Smithsonian HD Now, Next ONLY - 11508.50V
301 Al Jazeera HD Now, Next ONLY - 11582.25H
302 France 24 HD Null - 11685.50V
303 TRT World HD Now, Next ONLY - 11508.50V
304 NHK World HD Now, Next ONLY - 11225.00V
305 Arirang TV HD Now, Next ONLY - 11225.00V
306 Bloomberg HD Now, Next ONLY - 11685.50V
307 GB News HD Now, Next ONLY - 11307.00V
308 CNN HD Null - 11670.75H
309 CNBC HD Now, Next ONLY - 12168V

How does one get the 7 days EPG on UK FreeSat HD channels?

Do you have the freesat epg grabber enabled?

I have not :( Thank you very much.

Just enabled it.

To get EPG for the non-encrypted Sky channels which are not part of Freesat (for example CNN HD) you need to enable the "Over-the-air: OpenTV Sky UK" grabber, then set the Sky EPG mux 11778V to use this grabber.

There were some important fixes for the OpenTV grabber in October 2021; if your Tvheadend build is older than this you should upgrade before trying.

I am running Build: 4.3-1983~gb8710206e (2021-11-21T13:38:09+0000).

I have enable it: Over-the-air: OpenTV: Sky UK
Enabled: Yes

Priority: 2

And then
Configuration - DVB Inputs - Muxes:
EPG Scan: Auto-Detected
EPG modul id: OPenTV: Sky UK
Network: UK-FreeSat

Name: 11778V

Thank you very much as well all working as it should :)
