I sometimes find it useful to be able to look back to the start of the day but it does seem that at least two people have stale data in their databases. I'll make the change for the next release.

I did a rm epg.dat and waited for it to return, Then I got this :-
Same as before
Code:
humax#
humax# epg first
1312156800
humax#
humax# epg last
1323302220
humax#
humax#Same as before
That's not altogether surprising because the Humax software is most likely maintaining an in-memory EPG and updating it from the broadcast stream, then periodically flushing it to disk.
I'm not sure how important it is to get rid of the old entries... If you want to then the easiest way is probably to stop the humax software (make sure it isn't recording first!) then remove the database and reboot.
Code:
humax# /etc/init.d/S90settop shut
humax# rm /mnt/hd1/dvbepg/epg.dat
humax# rebootAs I said, I'll make the webif ignore old data in the next update too.
