Re: Can VDR use one specific transponder for EPG information?

Just a thought but you could set up a daily or weekly timer with a very low priority on the recording so it auto deletes it. I've never used the auto delete after set time because I never know how long it will be before I get back to watching the recording.

Thanks for the reply.

What's the best way to tune to that transponder?  Using SVDRP?

(ie. I'm new to VDR but would I issue a CHAN command, then wait 10
minutes (or whatever), then issue another CHAN command?)

Could I disable automatic EPG grabbing and manually tell it to grab
EPG in my script?  (using SVDRP?)

My DVB-S provider sends a 9-day EPG guide only one one specific transponder.

Is it possible to use only that transponder for EPG grabbing?

...or can I specify which channels/transponders to use somehow?

AFAIK VDR isn't capable of that.  I just remember to tune an EEPG
transponder every few days.  You could write a little cron script to
tune your EEPG transponder each day at some hour like 4am (assuming
you're sleeping at that time), let it sit for however long it takes to
populate, and then tune back to the channel it was on previously.
