    I remember having the same problem a year back with a eurovox blue, I solved it with a reflash.

    Which box have you got, can you press menu, config, system info and type back what it says in there, also are you in the UK or Ireland.

    LOL yep you certainly need updating, That was the same firmware S/W Ver that was on mine with the same problem but mine used to do it from early morning until dinner time then it was fine the rest of the day.

    Shows you which cables to buy and step by step on how to flash your box.

    Menu and across to Config, then choose TV Settings, and pick the one that suits you and your type of TV - and blue button to save. Try each one, but remember that at the best of times, particularly on Sly Pemiere Film channels, you will have the black band on your TV screen (top and bottom) it is normal.

    If the epg is anything like the eurovox you just need to give it time. I had to leave mine for a day until it showed the correct timings after the clocks went back.

    I dunno about this but do epg's update themselves at the end of each day or something??

    In time settings for the UK under Config, set GMT to ON and time zone to GMT+0, blue button for save and exit then power box off at the mains and then back on.
