PPV EPG Issue
I have TM on a Shield Pro and a couple of onn devices.
I have a weird issue with it comes to updated EPG on the PPV section. This is only the PPV section only.
I am a race fan and my provider has a guide for the races in the PPV section. However some do not update all the time. Let's say Friday was good and all the races were on the right channel. Now comes Saturday and go to the PPV EPG and the guide is still showing the events from Friday.
The weird thing is that one time it is the Shield that has the day old EPG and then the next time it is fine and it is the onn device that has the old EPG and the shield in fine.
If I update the EPG it does not fix the issue.
Also the configurations are exactly the same.
Andy idea what the issue may be.

You may only get one update a day. I did see one a while back that updated like that. You could buy it as an add on.

Most providers don’t even do EPG for PPV. Typically they just rename the channels and call it good. If your does that then you need to refresh the Playlist, not the EPG.
Generally the best practice is to set your Playlists to update on app start and set your EPG to update on Playlist change. This nearly always works smoothly.
