I like the extra features the the SmartEPG Tap provides for my Topfield 2400, but I'm having a few issues.
I realise that SmartEPG reads from the FTA EPG rather than Ice, but it seems that Ice can still set the timers pretty well according to it's guide, it seems that the IceTv guide is still downloaded and stored on the box.
The problem at the moment is with padding, SmartEPG disables the native padding settings, but IceTv timers use those settings, and now I miss the end of most of my shows as a result.
Is there anyway to stop the overriding of padding settings with SmartEPG?

Does anyone use SmartEPG successfully with IceTV?

I have missed shows on more than one occasion due to conflicting timers on my Beyonwiz, and these are not shown by the yellow triangles on the app like they are on the website, so there is no way to tell that they have not been sent to the BW. The Mac dashboard widget has the same issue.

Will there be an update to correct this?

According to tv tonight, there will be a repeat of underbelly: tell them lucifer was here on Sunday night at 8:30pm on GEM, it currently does not appear on the ice guide, it shows a movie instead.
I have a favorite on my Beyonwiz P1 for this as well, using the Wollongong guide.

I have a recording set up for Star Trek DS9 on GO!, but each episode shows twice in 24 hours, and I don't want to record both. Since all the episodes are marked as repeats, I can't use that as the filter.

I started by just deleting the second showing each week from my recordings list, but now I'm trying the "Record 1 per day" setting, which should work.

What I'm concerned about is that if GO! changes the schedule of shows (which seems to happen often) and starts showing double episodes, I will miss episodes being recorded.

Is there a way to record the "first current showing" of a show when it is already marked as a repeat for all episodes?

I use Win GO! on my Beyonwiz, and GO! repeats all shows from the night before in the morning.
On the Ice guide they shouldn't be scheduled for recording, since I set them for First Runs Only, but they are not listed as repeats, and record on my BW as well.
Could these be marked as repeats from now on please?
