Forgot to add, the last line in your code does not look right. Seems you have an extra s and are missing a parenthesis.
 

sself. Changed(self.CHANGED_ALL,))
 

Yea, i had caught that and fixed that.. But, thanks for bringing it up..  Ill try again with a fresh mind in a day or two.. I need to step away, as sometimes my mind comes up with ideas when i step away, and it helps to come back with a refreshed mind. 

Well, I'm a bit frustrated... I feel like im missing something, but my brain is too fried at the moment to care.  I added the eventinfo.py

def updateSource(self, ref):
    if not ref:
        self.service = None
        self.changed((self.CHANGED_CLEAR,))
        return
    self.service = ref
    sself. Changed(self.CHANGED_ALL,))

and it just sent my receiver into such a bad state (black screen/no response) , it wouldn't even give me a error... I still had FTP access, so i restored the file. and then had to power cycle the device to get it back.  I need to walk away from it for the day....I wish i could drill someone in real life so i could get a better grasp.  It makes me feel like im 14 again stuck for days on something so stupid.

 

As for your posting about auto popup of the info bar, i saw that in the code days ago, and I flagged that, but i cannot get the core working, so that seems like a distant tangent at the moment.

Yea, i added the import stuff, i remembered that, and cleaned up the typos in the code sample, but it still crashed....

If i understood correct you switch the channel and expect epg info to update immediately. Right? Switching a channel dont immediately raise event info update event. You want to move the update to be raise immediately on infobar show. Isnt it that what you want?

Yes, you are correct that i would want it to update the EPGcache, or the EPGnow/EPGnext event when you pull up the infobar for the current channel you are on.  I already fetch and decode the song information from the web, I just need a means to update it to show on the infobar  EPG now and Next event....

And thank you, and example would be nice..
