The times given in EPG data are supposed to be in UTC, so different time zones
are of no interest. If teh times are not in UTC, the providers are messing up.
So how VDR or any other settop box should know that the channel is shifted in time?

As an example, 75.0E has NTV and NTV-2, or DTV and DTV-2

You can set the "table id" of these events to 0 (see man 5 vdr).
The problem is not with overwriting the data, but appending the wrong data for that channel.
I see both script inserted and DVB transmitted data that are differ.

Is there such "table id" setting per channel and not per EPG entry?

Alex.
