This is a guide to enable you to get a longer epg than the standard one. You manually have to update it to maintain the 9 days, so not that great. Maybe someone could write a script for it to run automatically?

Requires use of PLi Iolite 2008 Image and requires hard disk installed.

Anyway:

First D/L this and extract the files.

FTP the dbepg.cfg and dbepg.so to /var/tuxbox/plugins
FTP the dbepg folder to /var/tuxbox/

Then do this:

(blue button, Dreambox settings, System settings, EPG)

Switch to EPG Data Store---- SQLite EPG database
Switch to SQlite EPG location----Internal Harddisk
switch to SQLite EPG Directory---- /media/hdd
set number of days to 1-14
X Enable MHW EPG
X Limit Enigma EPG Size

Press green button to save

Start the Dreambox EPG config plugin via the plugin menu (yellow button)
Choose Radiotimes UK Package, not wolf nl(its down)
Press the green button to open the channel mapping screen
On the left, you see the unmapped channels
On the right, you see the channels from the current bouquet

Now map the channels by selecting one in the left window (ok), then select the matching one from the right (ok)

Once you've mapped all channels you want to see EPG data from, press Done (green button)

You can now do a manual retrieve (yellow button) to check. You should see a download window for every channel mapped.

now press up or down button, choose channel with up or down, press info button, choose multiEPG...
(you can define number of hours shown by pressing 1 through 6, 1 for 1 hour, 6 for 6 hours)
or yellow key(plugins) and MV 3.5.2

you can define how many channels are displayed at once within mutlipeg (blue button,dreambox ,user interface settings,MultiEPG, i choose 6 channels, font size of 2 and genre colours) this displays a nice multiepg with a channel/info/program description at top of multiepg screen)
