Very likely to be to do with the EPG as the PVR is being lauched in January and I'm guessing changes will be needed to the EPG for this (not necessarily cosmetic changes but certainly behind the scenes).

Since the channel reshuffle the EPG fails to display program information for the current program for CH 101 BBC 1. I have tried rebooting but to no avail. Anyone else experiencing this problem?

if you go into the settings menu and then re arrange channels,take the first channel(0 on demand) and move it to the bottom of the list the problem will be sorted and listings will be available for 101:)

sorry,i meant move the channel 100(on demand previews) not channel 0

Renumbering TV Channels
 
Does anyone else besides NTL think the renumbering of channels is a good idea. My box is one of the first ones made, and they tell me its still OK, but it takes ages to change stations now. I think it gets a brain overload trying to deal with 3 numbers. Who thought it was a good idea to make things more complicated, there is so much dross you have to put programs you like into Favourites, so why clump similar programs together. A better idea would be to allow you to delete the rubbish programs.

A friend has the same issue with her Digi Box, its REAL slow at the moment - i have Sky and that EPG craps all over it by comparision as its like a whippet on steriods compared to the decrepit old man thats the NTL EPG.

Is this a bug or is it always that bad?

It was okay prior the to change which made it the current blue scheme, speed wise. Since the change to the blue, my Pace box is really slow, snail pace slow, but my Samsung box is okay, not as fast as before though

I have the same problem, EPG for BBC 1 just displays searching and never displays info.

Works like a charm. :) Thanks PS1. Is it my imagination or is the EPG now running faster since applying this work-around?

Try selecting 2. Entertainment rather than 1. All Channels. You should find that the info for BBC1 will then populate.

Give it a try.
