Workaround for missing EPG data on version 31

Post by Doppel-D »

As explained in this thread I had to disable EPG over EIT because of constant never ending relativly high CPU usage. After disabling, CPU usage went down to normal and EPG was still coming. I updated to v31 some time ago but some channels didn't get EPG (not sure if this started with v31)

What brought back the data of the missing channels: I started a short recording on the channels whose data was missing, and voila: Some seconds later EPG data showed up and seems to keep working for the future.

Perhaps this behavior is also connected to the high CPU usage in the first place? Something perhaps hangs and/or is not initialized or problems are not related at all ;- ) I will enable EPG over EIT again in v31 in the near future to see if the first problem is still present.
Cheers
