Is the DVB-S card set to use active EIT collection in mythtv-setup? If
it isn't, data collection only occurs when you're recording or
watching LiveTV on a DVB-S channel (and then I'm not certain if the
Freesat EPG is broadcast across all Freesat-channel-carrying muxes).

Also, in addition to the video source being configured to use EIT,
each of the channels on that source also need to have their
'useonairguide' flag set for listings to be collected.

I have mine set to active collection and get a week's worth of
listings on almost all Freesat channels.
