Thanks a lot, i got it to work correctly now  :-)

Someone else asked about getting EPG from 3sat: I can't get it from it, only 
from SF1 and an italian and french channel (Switzerland). I also tried to 
scan with "slow", but this didn't change anything. A friend told me, that 
Kabel1 is delivering very good EPG informations for most of the german 
channels. Can you get it from Kabel1?

Cheers Joe
