For almost a week now I can't get the epg to update on my dm800,..I have a choice of providers in the epg menu like rytec uk & sky uk but they won't download the epg data,..I had the box configured to auto download from rytec uk each night & that worked for months but nothing now,...any ideas ???

Add Satmate epg to your list and alternate between the two, when one's down
Credit goes to skunk1111 for this.
Adding satmate to your epg
Right it seems for now that rytec has stopped working so to get another EPG provider i add this to my Deliteepgproviders.cfg which is in your etc folder.
Satmate_***.UK,ext_dat,http://hqsatellite.com/satmate/skyuk_epg.dat.gz,7,none
Add reboot and you will now see satmate, select and enjoy a full EPG.

I'm afraid not,..added line exactly as above but no epg is updated.

to add satmate press blue button then red button on remote control. you get the option to add provider. you will be asked to supply a name. call it what you want and then an http location. put in the http location http://hqsatellite.com/satmate/skyuk_epg.dat.gz and then do a download now using the yellow button on your remote control. remember that you must disable other epgs you have set to download via skyuk or rytecuk so only one is ever active. then set the time for autodownload for satmate

I thought it would be possible to edit the Deliteepgproviders.cfg file just as we edit the CCcam.cfg file whenever we need to so what I did was ftp to the etc folder & opened the Deliteepgproviders.cfg file & pasted in "Satmate_SKY.UK,ext_dat,http://hqsatellite.com/satmate/skyuk_epg.dat.gz,7,none" now when I press blue, red I can see the new option for satemate UK exactly as you typed in your reply,...but when I press yellow it acts like it's downloading for about 30sec & I get the message "download complete" but epg is not updated at all.

@ fintannl, yeah, just tried to d/l rytec, with no joy. Think I'll be giving crossepg a go soon.
@lenny, keep trying m8, it will come back, but it is a pain at times. I just changed to Satmate
again, and it's fine

I did use satmate in the past but about a year ago I noticed that the data became patchy so I switched to rytec.

***UPDATE** when all else fails as they say,..I flashed the latest phoenix image sim201 SS82 & all is well again,..rytec working 100%,..I stuck with the phoenix image because I needed the dbt-t usb tuner drivers for the saorview channels.

luk, might be worth looking at the dreambouk image. that is assuming you have ss82 bootloader. sadly mine is an ss69 job which limits me badly

my 800 is over 2yrs old & was ss69 or ss72 at best,..I bought a new sim2.01 here in Ireland a month ago which gave the box a new lease of life with the latest images.

the link is embedded in the "here" in my previous post,..also bought a ferguson ariva 120 combo from him a few weeks ago,..it's a HD box with DTT & sat tuners,..patched firmware allows CCcam & newcamd to operate....picks up the new Irish saorview channels with a coat hanger & any sat channels your dish is pointing at.

I've got sim 2.01 with bl76c, but I d/l that image ages ago, it's patched with bl82 in, so it's just a matter of flashing the image and my bl will be updated to 82,but, as I said, I've had very little hassle so far. But I'm getting itchy fingers now though listening to lenny. Would love a vu+ by the way lol, pricey ?? What sim you got on the 800 ??
@lenny, are you using Ts panel with the image ?

Yeah,..the sim I bought was 2.01 ss76 so I just flashed the new phoenix image using the web browser method & bootload was updated to 82,..TS panel comes with the image,..not had to use it as yet,..just used the normal ADDONS menu to download & install my cams & such....working well.

vu+ duo not so expensive any more. clone dm800 is best part of 200. vu+ is 300. as a server works for me. but as a local system it is without comparison. so it does both and better than my dm500, then dm800. so it costs a bit more but you need to understand the image and tuners and then you realise how good the gear is
