EPG - some channels not updating

Anyone else noticed this?

23 bid tv nothing after midnight 01 May
30 5* "
31 5 USA "
37 price drop "

and

16 QVC nothing after midnight 02 May

Most of those are displaying the program on air at midnight, but nothing after that time.

I have two PVRs, both seem to have pretty much the same situation. One is a rather old
Sagem, while the other is a newer Hitachi (prob. Vestel?).

All seem to be on MUX A which I'm getting from Oxford. Other MUX A channels seem fine.

That's true for bid tv & price drop, but I do occasionally record some QVC
for
my wife who works. Generally I wouldn't be too bothered about the two five
channels, although I'm still catching a few CSIs that we have missed over
the
years.

However, I'm more interested in why it's happening - is it the boxes, the
transmitter, etc.


My FRVT90 on Sandy Heath is showing the channels mentioned as "no
information" from the time stated or thereabouts.

It's the same here in the Ulster region (Divis transmitter).

It've tried a couple of TVs with built-in Freeview tuners and also a
couple of external boxes.

Partially corrected this morning. All EPG data for those channels is there
up to midnight Tuesday, when bid tv & price drop are missing. QVC is OK up to
Thursday night midnight and 5*/5USA stop on Friday night.

Still odd.
