Channel 5, 5+1 and 5 HD EPG data missing.

[Wallace]

Good morning. I setting the weekly recording schedule for SWMBO this morning and noticed that the EPG data for channel 5, 5+1 and 5HD was missing but only for Friday 28th and Saturday 29th October. AFAIK, they are the only channels missing. The EPG jumps from 4 to 6. The whole entry is missing and not just a blank line. It is like the channels have been deleted. This is only for Friday, up to that day all channels are present.

I might add that it is not ’one HDR specific‘ as my other HDR has the same issue.

As per my sig, Winter Hill transmitter.

This happens occasionally and has been reported before but usually corrects itself before the day in question arises.

Same from Sandy Heath for Friday 29th and Saturday 30th

Not unknown for data to be missing / late uploading in normal times on most if not all TV channels. BBC, C4 and C5 are using their disaster recovery playout systems since the Red Bee incident at White City London; so maybe not entirely unexpected to have issues like this?

Thanks, I thought it was a network issue but nice to have confirmation.
