Thats why I no longer use it. I use the solution pointed out by Tony Grant, it works perfectly well. You can customize which channel's epg it should retrieve. During my VDR PC startup an init script tells the at daemon to run my get epg script after waiting a few seconds to allow VDR to start. So its totally asynchronous to VDR. I prefer not to have anything waiting for the epg script to finish, just in case. I can also call the same script from the OSD if required.
