[VU+ Duo] Slow EPG

[garryboy]

Hi I have Vu duo running VIX latest build.

I use crossepg opentv for my EPG.

When I press the > button advance 24hrs it takes around 30secs to load the next day. Is this normal.

Is it any quicker in other images such as black hole.

Cheers
Garry

I have the same epg settings as you and mine is quick going through the epg.make sure your epg is on a USB stick I think this is key to having a quick epg

 

[garryboy]

Yeh it's definitely on USB stick.

It's quick going up and down the list of channels just slow when i advance 24hrs to the next day.

I get the spinning VIX logo up in the
Corner

Make sure there's no epg data or picons on the hdd or flash

 

[garryboy]

Ok. How do I check the flash mem

As all EPG-data is in live-memory (RAM) it makes no difference what storage device is used.
The number of channels in the EPG and the time-scale (both adjustable via EPG --> Menu) do make a difference: the more channels and the more time must be shown, the more time it takes to present them.

@rob.i thought if epg/picons were on hdd and hdd was asleep it takes a bit of time to wake up the hdd for epg data that's all rob m8.just giving my 2 cent worth

 

[Rob van der Does]

Picons, yes, as the are read on every zap.
But as I said: when the box is up, all EPG-data is in RAM.

Did you resolve this? My advance button does not work at all.
I know the actual button works as it does other functions.
Are there any settings for this function?

Have you tried a fresh reflash? because this feature is definitely working as expected.
Tested on 3 different boxs now.

No < & > buttons work fine and always have mate.

Dunno what could be wrong.

Do the buttons work when not in EPG. For me < cycles through previous viewed channels.

This feature stopped working when i was using Vix 2.4 and now on Vix 3.0 recently flashed still not working.
I know the button works as it does on other features.
Is there a setting somewhere that may be disabled?

No setting to change it. What does it do for you when watching TV?

 

[garyblas]

It goes to next or previous bouquet as it should

When watching live TV, the < > buttons should move to previous channels viewed.
