Yes, unfortunately that appears to be the way it is. But I've had Beyonwiz's for around 20 years, now 2xT4s, and icetv. Perhaps I've been spoiled, or just entrenched. I have TVs that have apps but I'm not interested in swapping between apps to record different channels. Icetv and Beyonwiz have always been my preference. Icetv integrates all the channels but now things are getting tricky if there are also apps. So how would you integrate your recordings/timers etc if some shows are on channels and some on apps.
This all started because a show I watched last year on fta 9hd has been moved to 9Now. Too much trouble to watch if I can't set and forget. Think I might just ring 9 and complain.
Ps I've just twigged as to why I wasn't getting info on replies to my posts. Advised icetv of change to email address but need to also change address on forum.

On the basis that there's no such thing as a dumb question, where is 9Now?  I was watching something on 9HD and they referred to 9now.  It's not an option for Perth icetv guide. I went looking for it and it looks like it's just an app rather than a channel?  Is this the way of the future?  If someone could enlighten me in simple language, I would be most appreciative.
Gracias, como siempre, Charlotte.

The rescanning didn't fix the channel name - sometimes it was right, sometimes wrong, but once the tennis finished, everything went back to normal, or maybe I'm just not using those channels atm. Being a glutton for punishment I've just got Foxtel with sport for the first time. I'm hoping to run thru Beyonwiz. I'm going to get an expert to come and help me sort out everything I think. Love the tech side but I don't have a spare 4 hours a day to work out everything.
Still need firmware upgrade and have 2 T4s. I have 'notify me of replies', but somehow this isn't working for me.

Thank you all. Have been very busy and haven't gone through all the procedures yet. Fortunately now that tennis is ending my problems appear to have ended, but definitely will update firmware. Have rescanned channels.

Thanks for all that. I have another T4 in the bedroom and i finally checked and it isn't showing 9GEM HD as Your money. May in some strange way it's related to the different hdd. I shall do a service scan and see how that goes. 

Hi
Thanks for your detailed instructions.  I'm not very technical when it comes to Beyonwiz. 'Revision' field not appearing on that page.
Last time scanned for services. Not sure. Mark Warkus put in a new HDD about 3 weeks ago. I assume that means a new scan for services?  Didn't get new motherboard.
Service reference for 9GEM HD is 19:465:490, so not as you said.

Odd that the problem was fixed by the recent app update, then reappeared a couple of days later.

Bwiz T4.  Perth
I was having a major problem. A couple of days ago if I clicked on channels or favourites the screen would freeze. The whatsit would just go around and around. Totally unresponsive. Only thing I could do was to turn off the bwiz at the back. Channels were not saying same as recorded. Your money instead of 9GEMHD.  I kept missing the tennis because  icetv was saying it was a rerun so I changed to first runs and repeats and that fixed that. Took me 24 hours+ to check for update. Downloaded, tidied up channels.  All happy.

Didn't realise but this morning I missed the channel 9 tennis because IceTV has reverted to believing it's a rerun. Putting in first run and repeats doesn't work.  Have to actually put it in manually from the app.
Channels are stuffed again. If I click on channels, favourites, it freezes.
9GEMHD shows as that in my app, favourites and the EPG. But in the timer it shows as Your Money?  Same fault as before.  Also I can't click on 'add timer' for 9gemhd in the epg to record in the normal way. And even when it's recording, it doesn't show that it's recording in the epg.

Confusion between your money and 9gem HD
Can't record 9hd tennis from app except each individual instance.
9life is on app but no program info in epg. Was ok before.
No access to channels, favourites. Just freezes
Maybe other stuff that I haven't found.
Ps. Just found that tennis on 9GO has same problem. I have to record each episode separately. Neither first runs only nor first runs and repeats works.

Update Saturday morning.
9life programs have reappeared.
Still mismatches between app guide and EPG. Your money and gemHD.
Another icetv app update would be good.

I've finally got the wifi working but still can't get epg or timers.
WLAN connection is connected.
Wireless network says its disconnected??  Have checked all the hardware.
IP address is unconfirmed nameserver is unconfirmed.
Any ideas?

So I've tried to set up the wireless but I can't set it up with either the previous wlan or with the new Optus wireless broadband router. So frustrating.

I have a t4.
I lost my internet for over a week. Didn't know because was o/s.  I was then able to connect for a short while, then lost it again.
I set up mobile broadband and I've now got wifi internet again for my iPad but not for icetv - no epg or timers. When I try to fetch epg and update timers it says icetv update completed with errors. I can't log in to server. as it says I've had too many tries and/or there was an error. Max retries exceeded.
The log goes on about cannot retrieve channel map.....caused Max tries exceeded, caused by class socket.gaierror...errno name or service not known.
I think this is all because I still have no access to internet for Beyonwiz. I think it's a validation issue. Iinet has told me to do this and that, but still no internet.  Also their instructions aren't always consistent.
I've tried the reboot but no success. Any help would be most appreciated. In the meantime I would appreciate tips on how to record when you have no epg.

Thank you for your suggestions. I'm not always that lucky with a reboot, but I'm not complaining.

Ps. I have just double checked and the second T4 is ok.
PPS. I rebooted the main T4 and everything has reappeared. 😊

I've just noticed that icetv is no longer scheduling my shows. Most finish in next day or two and after that - nothing. I have tried resending data from app and also online, but no luck. My wifi is working fine and the blue dongle is flashing as it should be.

App says: account expiry date Tuesday 27 Feb 2018? But it's automatically debited each month. Also last update Friday 16 March 2018 and last epg program ends Thursday 22 March. But the epg program on the T4s is missing a number of shows.  Anything I added today is missing, but the problem is more than just today.

I have two T4s and both have the same problem.

"All information has now been updated, with channels logos along with full channel and guide information". This was some time ago. Would appreciate an update regarding timers.

I'm in Perth. Have tried everything but still no timers on either t4.

Later: After two hours I now have timers for a weeks time, but not this week.

Not going to spend any more time on this but very disappointed. 

I've rebooted one t4 and restarted GUI on the other.  Thank you. Will wait and see. I've done all the other stuff numerous times - disabled and enabled icetv, resent info from t4 and app etc. I have the epg ok, but not timers.

Somehow I've stuffed up the favourites which I use for the epg on the less important t4. I've still got them there but can't remember how to have them come up automatically when I click on epg. Have spent ages stuffing around with this. If anyone would be so kind as to give me some quick hints, I'd be ever so grateful. Normally I'd find the answer myself, but I'm not a happy camper after wasting so much time unnecessarily this morning. Grrrr!
