Until you get a proper answer...Which EPG are you acquiring? What is the name of the HD channel? What is the service reference?
for example i want to see the epg of Eurosport2.it 1:0:19:1036:2008:FBFF:820000:0:0:0:
on Eurosport2.int 1:0:19:2BE:2BC:13E:820000:0:0:0:
is possible?
Thanks, best regards

Yes i have done this before many years ago. The alias file should work, i still have the old file on github.... see HERE
I never did manage to ever get the alias file to work on Sat. I only managed to get it to work on Virgin following your instructions jenseneverest back when we still had Virgin.
It would be very handy if you could post something similar for Sat channels.
For example most of Total TV EPG is in English and it would be nice to apply this EPG to other packages that carry the same channels.
Thanks jenseneverest
i have done this: (in different format as you can see)
# EUROSPORT INTERNATIONAL
Eurosport 1=Eurosport 1 International HD
Eurosport 2=Eurosport 2 International HD
#F4F:2008:FBFF=2BD:2BC:13E
#1036:2008:FBFF=2BE:2BC:13E
f4f:2008:fbff=2bd:2bc:13e
1036:2008:fbff=2be:2bc:13e
f4f:2008:fbff=Eurosport 1 International HD
1036:2008:fbff=Eurosport 2 International HD
but not works i don't understand why....
can you help me?
MY memory bank is not what it once was lol, but if you look at the file on github there is examples
Like ian1095 says i only ever did this for satellite to cable
When i get time later on tonight i will have a go at satellite to satellite
in the mean time see the help files:
how to setup [aliases] section
format:
SOURCE=DESTINATION
epg data will be copied from SOURCE to DESTINATION
SOURCE is:
channel_name-provider_name
or
SID-TSID-ONID
i.e. 0002:00820000:1770:0110:1:0
SID: ns :TSID:ONID:stype:unused
SID = 0002 TSID = 1770 ONID = 0110
C789-0815-0002=BET
16C5-07F2-0002
Examples:
canale5-mediaset=canale 5
epg data from "canale 5" provider "mediaset" will be copied to "canale 5" (every provider)
canale5-mediaset=canale 5,canale cinque,canale5
epg data from "canale 5" provider "mediaset" will be copied to "canale 5" (every provider) and
to "canale cinque" (every provider) and to "canale5" (same name as source but different provider than "mediaset")
0002-1770-0110=canale 5
epg data from sid "0002:00820000:1770:0110:1:0" will be copied to "canale 5" (every provider)
0002-1770-0110=canale 5,canale cinque,canale5
epg data from "0002:00820000:1770:0110:1:0" will be copied to "canale 5" (every provider) and
to "canale cinque" (every provider) and to "canale5" (every provider)
note 1: channel_name and provider_name are case insensitive
note 2: SID/TSID/ONID can be read using remote control MENU->INFORMATION->CURRENT CHANNEL INFORMATION
ServiceReference looks like
1:0:19:106A:2008:FBFF:820000:0:0:
the format is
1:0:19:SID :TSID:ONID:820000:0:0:
so the SOURCE will be:
106A-2008-FBFF=.......
Display More
And from when we did it all them years ago:
4seven-bskyb=4Seven,4SevenHD,4seven HD
Where this is:
channel name-provider=channel name,channel name,channel name
So dacorsa in you examples below you are missing the provider (i have not checked the others - will do so when i have time tonight)
ok so tested also this, not works:
nano /usr/crossepg/scripts/alias/alias.conf
Eurosport 1-SkyItalia=Eurosport 1 International HD
Eurosport 2-SkyItalia=Eurosport 2 International HD
maybe the file to edit is not:
nano /usr/crossepg/scripts/alias/alias.conf
but this:
nano /usr/crossepg/aliases/aliases.conf
that has another sintax:
#NID|TSID|SID,NID|TSID|SID
# RADIO CAPITAL TIVU
#64511|800|1420,8572|31002|26
do you know if works?
best regards
if you look in the log:
less /media/usb/crossepg/crossepg.log
search for :

i tried to use this file but not works... :(
can you help me?
Thanks
Like I said above I spent many hours on this editing both files and renaming folders ect and I never succeeded in getting it to work from Sat to Sat.
It only ever worked from Sat to Cable.
It really would be a handy thing though if it can be made to work.
Hi dacorsa
I have not had a chance to look at this yet (as always i have been working over Easter )
Anyways i now seem to remember there was indeed an issue getting this to work for satellite, (even when we had it working years for sat to cable)
IMO something must have changed with crossepg over the years with all of it modifications to keep it working -
support from the original author ended many many years ago.
It may be an idea to put your STB in debug mode and track whats happening in an effort to see where it is failing in the process, either in reading the data or after that.
You may find we will need to modify the script it runs on either here: https://github.com/E2OpenPlugi…er/scripts/alias/alias.py
or https://github.com/E2OpenPlugi…nigma2/crossepg_epgcopy.c
There is another plugin that may be easier, and should work as a solution for you..... at least for data based on openTV (like sky UK and sky IT)
see its help documents:
once you download the epg data with the emulator it then populates the channels with epgimporter plugin
If you modify the xmltv files that epgimporter uses to include your other channels (based on there service reference's)
You will have the same data on all of the channels you also add.
Have a look at what i am talking about, see if you can do it, otherwise let me know if you need help and will have a look when home.
Thanks jenseneverest
please i'll wait your guide because i installed the plugin :
enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-radiotimesemulator
but i don't don't how configure it.
Thanks, best regards

You have not said how you are acquiring EPG. Is it Rytec EPG , any other internet based EPG or direct from the satellite stream?
yes it's rytec
Just ask Doglover to add that service reference and it will be added to channels files and will then have EPG. If you want,I can post request for you on their forum. To save me looking through the thread please provide the following details:
Name of channel
Service reference
Satellite orbital position
Name: Eurosport 1 International HD
Provider: Warner Bros. Discovery
SRef: 1_0_19_2BD_2BC_13E_820000_0_0_0 | 1:0:19:2BD:2BC:13E:820000:0:0:0: | 13.0° E |
Please, doglover can you add EPG of these channels?, Thanks
Name: Eurosport 2 International HD
Provider: Warner Bros. Discovery
SRef: 1_0_19_2BE_2BC_13E_820000_0_0_0 | 1:0:19:2BE:2BC:13E:820000:0:0:0: | 13.0° E |
Which satellite? I know I can convert the namespace, but it's easier for you to just say it.(Orbital position,not name.)
