    it has been mentioned before, but don't worry about it.

    not long after ITV Digital collapsed, a piece of equipment called the centralised service information collator was switched off, as this was something ITVD owned and controlled.

    that's your problem.

    this is soon to be replaced by BBC equipment. don't worry.

    The Now/Next doesn't work on five or a lot of the new channels for me either.

    For a half decent EPG give Teletext (on channel 9) a go. It takes over a minute to load up on my box, but isn't half bad when you get in there. It does list five:)

    See http://forum.digitalspy.co.uk/board/t/41080/ds.html for the Teletext thread

    It's a Bush 6690 IDTV. Not the smartest bit of kit, but it was just right for OnDigital as it came with 12 months free OnDigital service.

    Why is there still no EPG info on the Sky channels? Are they not going to bother and wait until the full cross-channel now/next service is working again?
