I think that jillmess may be the Beyonwiz forum's jillybean. If so, there are more details about her EPG problems here.

Yep - that's me.  I have spoken to someone at Ice (Marc I think) and my problem does relate to the channel mapping in the Ice info ie. channel seven for me (Wide Bay) is on LCN7 but the correct guide is Seven QLD which is mapped to LCN6 in the Ice settings. 

This is possibly also what is causing your problems (I'm not aware of how the mapping on the TF7100 works - I can only relate to the TF5000 IceEPGLoader TAP mapping.)  Like Vortical says - give them a call. 

At least with the Topfield it sounds like changes can be made to allow you to have selectable mapping for seven - particularly now that the issue is recognised.

I have "QLD regional" selected as my region in my IceTV account, but am unable to get the correct guide info for "my" channel seven to show on the wiz - the correct guide  is "Seven QLD" but what I get in the EPG is "Seven Brisbane".  Timers set using Ice Interactive also need to be set on Seven Brisbane for them to transfer successfully (which can be confusing when what I really want to record is a regional variation).

Conversely I get  WIN QLD in my EPG, when Nine Brisbane is more accurate for my area (neither is completely correct).  Is there any way to incorporate some sort of selectable channel mapping between the wiz and IceTV?

The same thing is happening in regional Qld (Wide Bay anyway) with SC10HD.  So far the couple of HD things (Journeyman & Veronica Mars according to the IceTV Guide) I have recorded turned out to be the demo loop.  My only HD access is via my PC so I haven't bothered checking beyond the shows I was interested in.

Excellent. All good now. :)

Ditto - thanks

Just an update on this.  I contacted Peter Gillespie (download) and he was able to make some changes to the tap to correct the problem.  The altered tap has not yet been made available for general download so you would need to contact Peter if you are having similar problems.

I also now have the same problem as fossicker (except that for me it is 10 hours out - no DST here) instead of just being one hour out as I was originally.  Sent an email to tech support yesterday (included part of the syslog) but no reply yet.  Have just reset my fetch time to the equivalent GMT time so hopefully this will sort things at my end until fixed at the Ice end.  Nice to know it is being looked at.

Thanks

Since the change to DST in the "other" states my IceBox automatic update has not been working.  I discovered on the weekend that this is due to the time on the IceBox now showing as GMT +11 - I am in Qld, have my Guide region set to regional Qld and the timezone to GMT +10.  Why does the IceBox now think it is GMT +11?

I have altered the Fetch time to one hour earlier so should now all work ok but don't believe this should have been necessary.  Two other IceBox's I have access to in the area also have the time altered to GMT +11.

Any fix from IceTV?

Thanks

Hi

I have recently reverted to using my IceBox2 to update directly from Ice (was previously using TED).  I have also altered my location to Qld Regional.  The problem I have is that even though I have correctly mapped the channels, JustEPG shows Seven Central (or maybe Seven Brisbane?) instead of Seven QLD which I have mapped.  The standard Toppy Guide shows the correct info.

I am able to change a map.ini setting to correct this (channel_id 162, lcn=7)  but the .ini must get overwritten with each new download as this keeps reverting to the original.  Is there any way to stop this change from being overwritten?
