I get my best signal on Mux D, so getting info from 4TV shouldn't be a problem, and I've not been recording anything in the early hours.

I might try phoning Thomson this evening if I'm home before the helpline closes.”

You could also try deleting the current EPG completely inn the engineering menu. This will only give you now/next for the rest of today, but then hopefully get the full EPG download at 3am tonight.

Or - do it before you go to bed!

Might try that if re-booting doesn't work...

Thanks for the suggestions guys.

Assuming you're running software v2.3.9 I think this the first report of a YLD happening with this software?

Ah! Well I always like to be a pioneer.

I didn't have to remove aeriel, or delete my "precious" new EPG, just a power cycle did the trick - but yes I had the Yellow light and no buttons worked on the unit or the remote control.

Well I tried the reboot trick but still no EPG yesterday I'm sure this was something to do with the date being changed to 2035(see earlier post)

Last night I did a factory reset deleted any progs in my record list ,and then did a reboot and left the tompson in standby tuned to 4tv.

Pleased to say checked this morning and I now have the full 14 day EPG
