first of all i know there is a few of these thred's but this was buy far the easiest and its the most recent i think.

i am using gemini 5.1 on a DM800 clone enigma 2 the most recent sgt flip flop's bouquets
thanks for that sgt flip flop's
Not sure what other versions it will work on.

Download CrossEPG attched "enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-crossepg-oe1.6_0.6.0-svn-177_mipsel.ipk".

Transfer with FTP to the /tmp directory.

using the Gemini File Manager --> /tmp --> highlight the file "enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-crossepg-oe1.6_0.6.0-svn-177_mipsel.ipk" and press the Green Button (Install) to install.

Reboot the box.

Initial Configuration "CrossEPG" should appear under both menu>setup and under menu>plugins).

with a compatible editor edit the file /usr/bin/enigma2.sh

and after the
line LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libopen.so.0.0/usr/bin/enigma2

add this line

/usr/crossepg/crossepg_epgmove.sh

enter menu>setup >crossepg>configure
set storage device ...... Preferably hardisk (i had trouble with this )
preferred lamedb ..... mainlamedb
enable csv import ..... no
force epg reload on reboot.....no
download on tune......yes
scheduled download .....every hour
show as plugin ......yes
show as extention ......yes
(i think the only important one is storage device)

exit configure

and select menu>setup >crossepg>openTVproviders


image removed - admin

press yellow (download)
then select your provider/sat i selected Sly uk open tv(astra2 on 28.2)




In Gemini Blue panel --> settings --> EPG:
Make sure the top EPG options are all off. In the bottom panel use:
File cache ..... on
change the filename ...... epg.dat
location ..... /media/hdd
Automatically save ..... off.

image removed - admin


YOU HAVE TO CHANGE THE CACHE FILE NAME TO EPG.DAT, otherwise it will not work.

Restart again

now goto menu>setup >crossepg>download now.
it will run and retrive epg data

Restart again

now goto menu>setup >crossepg>download now.it will run and retrive epg data again.

now you should have full epg

check via epg or menu>infomation>EPG

image removed - admin

it shoud read something like this :
116965 Events in 716 services
EPG used 6.0mb memory

if your using mutiple providers and sat's it will be larger.

Please follow our rules with regards to not using pictures hosted on external image sites. Ive sorted it this time - further transgressions may lead to your posting rights being restricted or terminated.

Upload pictures to our server instead.

If picture files on an image server are renamed or deleted in the future we end up with a thread with all the images missing which is no good to anyone.

Oh and a tip - if you find your posts not appearing theres normally a good reason - find out why rather than just reposting multiple times.
