[mayamaniac]

Can someone else verify if its down or not?

[brianrent]

not working for me either.

[mayamaniac]

Is this the end of free EPG?

Jeff always seems quite confident that if the EPG were to come to an end, he would provide some kind of notification.

I currently have EPG through Thursday, January 7th, 5pm, so not seeing a problem here. It is possible that there is more than one EPG server to which we all connect.

Have you gone through the forum guide steps for what to do when you're not receiving EPG data?

No EPG problems here either. Last update was 8:15 pm with data out 11 days.

I vaguely remember that EPG pulls 14 days ahead, so it would make sense that you still have 10 or 11 days left.

When trying adding a new source and get to the screen where you enter the zip code, this is what I get:



EDIT: Nevermind, it's working now.

SageTV EPG pulls 12 days, typically. For anyone else visiting this thread, the general rule is that you keep trying, over and over, re-entering the zip code if you have to. Some folks have had success entering a zip code for a nearby locale with the same TV services.

Here is the post in the Sage FAQ on what to do about missing EPG data;

I think you will find Sage normally maintains 14 days of EPG data, 2 days prior, the current day, and 11 days in the future.
