 In Europe we use rather long channel names in our dvb-s and dvb-s2
 signals. This is a problem since  EPG and OSD layouts ( whatever the theme
 chosen ) do not display entirely and completely long channel names: the
 text field is obviously too short for channel names such as  "Discovery
 Channel HD" but it is adequate for short chanel names surch as "TF1 HD" or
 "M6 HD". Bottom line, it is not possible to use easily the EPG guide in
 live tv mode to browse over dvb-s and dvb-s2 signals. Changing themes or
 reducing fonts does not help unfortunately. The solution would be to
 redesign EPG and OSD layouts to increase the size of the text field with
 the objective to display correctly long channel names
