Is this the only EPG handler you have installed, or are there others?
If so, make sure this one is installed FIRST.

The only EPG handler I have is XMLTV using SVDRP: once a day a script clears the existing EPG then inserts new entries in table 0
The correct table 0 entries can be seen in VDR for a while, then get overwritten after automatic scans.
I do need both types, as some channels / programmes don't have current data in XMLTV, only DVB.
My command line is:
/usr/bin/vdr -c /etc/vdr -E /mnt/lvm0/TV/epg.data -l 2 --no-kbd -P streamdev-server -P epgsearch -v 1 -l /var/log/epgsearch.log -m /usr/local/bin/sendEmail.pl -P epgtableid0 -P vnsiserver -P vdrmanager -P dummydevice -r /usr/local/bin/vdr-auto -u vdr --vfat -v /mnt/lvm0/TV
There are quotes missing:
/usr/bin/vdr -c /etc/vdr -E /mnt/lvm0/TV/epg.data -l 2 --no-kbd -P streamdev-server -P "epgsearch -v 1 -l /var/log/epgsearch.log -m /usr/local/bin/sendEmail.pl" -P epgtableid0 -P vnsiserver -P vdrmanager -P dummydevice -r /usr/local/bin/vdr-auto -u vdr --vfat -v /mnt/lvm0/TV

I should have explained - earlier I quoted the command line
reported by the kernel. It's actually created by runvdr.extreme.
So the plugins are recognised, the same way they were in 2.20 -
here's an excerpt of the startup
