MediaHighWay EPG data for Sunday is a week wrong

[Jack Lelieveld]

My compliments with the excellent DVBViewer Pro program. It is the first DVB program that I found that can show the Canal+ MediaHighWay EPG data (and supports more than one receiver and can record more than one program from the same transponder).

But I found a problem with de MediaHighWay EPG, the EPG data of Sunday is a week wrong so a program on 13-8-2006 is put in to the EPG list with the date of 20-8-2006 which will of course give a wrong programming of the recording list. On all other days of the week this problem is not occurring.

The MediaHighWay EPG is from Canaal Digitaal (the Dutch satellite provider, formally Canal+ Netherlands).

This problem is also not occurring with the “normal” EPG data that I get from the same provider (but Canaal Digitaal is only providing the info of the current and the next program) and is also not occurring with the “normal” EPG that I get from my cable provider (Caiw).

It also seems that the program titles are cut-off at about 40 characters which is not the case with the “normal” EPG from the cable (comparing the MHW EPG data of the same Dutch public program on satellite with the “normal” EPG on the cable).

I use DVBViewer version 3.5.0.1 with two FireDTV receivers (DVB-S and DVB-C).

My computer runs Windows XP Professional with SP2.
