Hello,
On all French channels, whether in HD or SD and on all frequencies, the electronic program guide grids are not filled in; they are empty. Consequently, I find it a glaring lack of information for viewers like us.
In comparison to German channels, where all EPG grids are filled in with TV programs for up to a week.
Maybe I haven't been able to find the way to access the filled-in EPG; however, despite pressing the "guide" button on the remote control, it remains strangely empty. I kindly ask for your guidance; thank you very much.
Configuration: Windows XP / Chrome 23.0.1271.97

The program guides are subject to rights, the publishing union to name it, if the manufacturer or distributor of a device does not comply with these rights, you will not have them.
You have the Toshiba STB2F recorder which has an EPG for 10 to 15 days depending on the channels, soon the connected decoders Xeobox from the brand Xeofix.
Otherwise, if you have the appropriate equipment, you have a paid system: http://www.hdland.fr/nas/1824-ve-hotech-abonnement-epg-1-an-par-ve-hotech.html

It's a shame that a TV program becomes paid when, back in the 1990s, the EPG was well-informed for free on all French channels. Anyway, I don't see why the publishing union holds the rights because it's purely TV (audiovisual), and only the TV channels should have that monopoly.
P.S. Logically, the EPG should be part of the VAT expenses (for television) rather than that of the publishing union, am I wrong?
