      If you press the EPG button on the remote and then the Blue button you may find some more information on certain channels and sats. I know that some of the German channels on 19E give more information, you may want to check it out on some others, unfortunately on 28E you get what you get.

          Yes shame no full EPG. But I like my spiderbox 9000 other than that... Not really uses the recording feature yet as it used to be a bit buggy. Is it a lot better now? Anyone used the homesharing feature at all?

                        Like wise here i prefer only to have ch's in English and only ones we are likely to watch ,I blind scan each sat to find what i can receive then sort it all out to my own preference ,its a lot of work but worth it,.
                        Just got to remember to back up the ch list now and then.

                          I use a very modified version of Billybits list as I do not use all the headings on 28E.I really do not think it is a good idea to blind scan on all sats as you end up with a lot of junk that needs to be cleaned out. Far better to check on Kingofsat or Flysat and here also, regularly to see what has been changed/added and scan in the particular transponders. that way you end up with what you want and not a load of duplicate channels. Works for me.

                            If you have the time get as many channels as you can on as many sats as you can. Then do what I did pick your 8 most used sats and make favourites for each one. In my case for the footy I have favourites for 28.2, 0.8w, 19e, 16e, 13e. Points is you still have all the remaining channels at your disposal a quick search and you can find any of them. Hope this helps a little mate.
