Not sure if the message has been seen here, but my beloved Thomson
DHD4000 will cease to have a working EPG in a couple of weeks time as
InView (the company responsible for broadcasting the old 4TV EPG
overnight) are withdrawing their service.

I believe this also affects Digifusion PVRs (not all models) and at
least on Sony PVR.

See digitalspy for various threads - e.g.

It looks as if my Digifusion FVRT90 and myTechwood PVR160TW are both
affected - neither are showing EPG past the 7th.


Same here with my FVRT145 the calendar won't go past the 7th.. although a
Digifusion FVRT95, I use occasionally in the bedroom, appears to be fine
and unaffected.



Just double checked the FVRT90 and it now has -some- entries for the 8th, so
fingers crossed.

The Techwood has a PITA EPG so I always use the FVRT first, the Tech' takes
ages to fill its EPG as it doesn't seem to update it in standby.

There's also a Maplin/Nikkai A52HF PVR which is a right POS, it and the Tech
both have RS-232 ports for firmware upgrades, but I've googled for hours and
not found where to download any upgrades.
