does the epg-checkbox on services page has any relevance (yet) ?

Added by Reinhard Mantey almost 12 years ago

I was very pleased to note, that on copying muxes from one adapter to the other, the channel enablement is copied as well.
The epg-enablement is not copied or just overwritten to enable.

Help says, that this checkbox is to avoid grabbing epg-data from that service.

How does it work?
If a service is disabled, is the epg content grabbed anyway, so I have to uncheck the epg-box or is there some kind of hierarchy in that sense, that the epg-checkbox will be evaluated on enabled services only?

Could be a mistake on mux copying, I'll try and take a look, but might be worth submitting a bug report.

But yes the checkbox does do something, it indicates whether or not a mux should be used for OTA EPG grabbing. This can be useful if you're mixing muxes together for a given channel (say a local -T and a -S variant), you could use this checkbox to control exactly which service provides the EPG data to ensure you don't get odd conflicts. Though generally speaking most cases are automatically handled within the system.
