Hi prog
there is a problem in epg for MBC channels
the epg of mbc drama for example contain events from other channel !! (mbc action )
as you can see in this picture there are events marked by mbc action because it belong to mbc action but it showed by mistake in mbc drama
Image
in this pic you can see the current event different than the highlighted event in the above pic !!
also that event doesn't belong to this channel!
Image
that's screen shot of epg from altdvb , you can found that the marked events in first picture not found in the event list!
Image
I did delete epg file in channel folder and same problem found
try the last release but the same problem there!

Thanks

BTW, the above sample have also 3 channels with
leading space in channel name as shown in the picture
Image
the first three channels have leading space in channel name so
if i sort channel by name they will appear first! even before
channels began with "a" !
and i have to delete this space from there names
Thanks

Thanks for your concern
I though also it's provider issue that's why i didn't report that before !
until i noticed it's correct EPG in altdvb
any way i checked it with other dvb player (dvb dream) and it seems it's correct EPG
I installed last progdvb 7.23.3
scanned the mbc transponder
as you can see in this pic
the current event is Rajkumar
the next event is English vinglish
and that's correct epg !
clock 1:49
Image


and at this pic events also are correct
clock 1:49

Image


a few seconds later (epg updated)
clock 1:49
next event is incorrect!!

Image


after close epg window and press I button
current event and next event are incorrect!!
clock 1:50

Image


dvb dream
clock 1:51
current event and next event are correct

Image


clock 1:51
current event and next event are correct

Image


clock 2:10
current event and next event are correct

Image


I guess if it is from provider it will be in all dvb player......
That's found only in MBC channels in Nile sat 7w and Arab sat 26 e
For me i prefer Progdvb player, and i hope you figure out where the problem is!
Thanks

Do you still believe that's provider issue?

//update
to be honest i notice some times event in dvb dream are wrong (like progdvb) but that happen for a second only then it become correct!
*in progdvb events are correct for a few seconds then become wrong and stay wrong!
*in dvb dream event may be wrong for a second or tow then become correct and stay correct!

same problem still exist...
epg is wrong in progdvb for mbc channels only while no problem at all with the same channel using dvb dream or altdvb but is wrong using progdvb..
using dvb dream or altdvb EPG COULD BE WRONG FOR A SECOND BUT CORRECTED IMMEDIATELY! seems like prgdvb doesn't do that
for example
EPG: NO INFORMATION, duration time 20 hour!, progdvb will show no information for 20 hour even the provider update that after 1 second!!!
in dvb dream and altdvb this problem does't exist
so this is the first problem is progdvb
second problem is showing event from rotana hd or AD Nat Geo in mbc2 or mbc max!, or showing event from mbc action in mbc2 or mbc max!!!
i hope you try solve that, because that is kinda of disaster in EPG for 3 years now!!
