TV guide not showing?

We are unable to record on our Thomson 250 recorder as the guide is no longer downloading. Rescanning has not rectified the problem
Margaret M, November 2013
Top Up TV used to broadcast a 14 day programme guide, but permanently ceased broadcasting on 1st November 2013.

Owners of Top Up TV recorders have reported on-line that they have successfully looked through the on screen menus and found the setting to change from the defunct 14 day programme guide to the 8 day freeview programme guide.

Immediately after changing the setting to the 8 day epg a Top Up TV recorder owner should be patient. It takes time before all the epg is populated without any gaps.

Please note that you have asked your question in the DVD recorder section. Asking a question in an appropriate section can attract more and better answers than you would have otherwise received.
Thomson have manafactured more than one modle with a 250 hard drive. Stating the model as well as the make and disk size may have helped others to help you.
One to remember in future.

Good luck.
