Is there anyway to change how far ahead the TVserver grabs the EPG for? I often turn on mediaportal and find that, even for that day, the program guide is not very complete, only picks up the major channels, and then only for a few hours ahead. It varies a bit. Is there any way of making it pick up a few days ahead?

I assume you are using DVB-T?

Freeview|HD only transmits the now+next shows using the DVB EIT table. You need to use a 3rd party application to get the EPG from the internet as Media Portal has no support the for the MHEG5 format that is used to transmit the EPG.
