FreeView EPG documentation ?
 

Can anyone tell me where to find some documentation about the EPG used by
FreeView channels ? I'm looking for a list of fields, the formats of each
of them, etc..

ETSI DVB-T specs (specifically the EIT) but if you want the ins-and-outs
of the UK spec the DTG D-Book might be useful too.

Fine - but the DTG D book is on available to DTG Full members.

The D-book is available to DTG world members, some of whom publish their
own local equivalent on the web, I don't know /how/ closely these are
based on the UK one but the Italian and NorDig ones look quite
interesting, though obviously you need to ignore the MHP details.

Googling for ETSI EN 300 468 might provide an online version. However that
spec covers a lot of options which are not used in Freeview, and omits a
few that are (Logical Channel Number is one).

ETSI specs are free to download (requires sign-up, might be limited to
personal use)

Hmm. Thanks to you and other people who responded. I see that the
specification isn't as clearly defined as I would have wanted.
