  1. Sony Tv Lineup For 2018

No Event Information Sony Bravia 2016 Anyone know how to have programme names displayed in the tv guide rather than only 'no event information'? I can only get the name after going onto the channel! 1 person had this problem. 0 Kudos Reply. I own a Sony Bravia which has TV Guide service built in. The channels show no listing. I had a new BD board installed 11-13-09. It has worked fine since until about 1 week ago. I have done the initial setup, but the guide still doesn't work.

The issue with sony Bravia TV's not populating the satalite EPG properly can be resolved. Sony just need to write their software correctly.The Bravia 49x8309C that I purchased on boxing day has this problem and other inconsistencies in the software.

The Sony spec states that it has both terestrial and Satalite tuners, which it has, great no need for a seperate satalite box.The You VIew softwaer is terestrial only WHY? When there are 2 tuners which both capture the signal and all of the program information from both terestrial TV and Satalite TV.All off the program information is available for each satalite chanel.

If you are watching a particular chanel and click guide, all of the programing information for that chanel is displayed. However many of the other chanels, which seem to be ordered in the order the satalite tuned to them, and not any logical order, show No information.If you click on any of the chanels showing No info available in the EPG, and then select to view the chanel in the pup up window, that program running on that particular satalite chanel is displayed. If you then again click the guide button, all of the program information is there in the guide.

So it apears that the program information from the satalite is only downloaded to the Sony satalite EPG when a chanel is selected. Somewhat missing the point of an electronic program guide.Therefore in my opinion Sony need to provide a satalite EPG that populates with all of this available satalite program information in a sensible format when the TV is powered on, like Freesat boxes do.This information should be stored in memory, only needing changes to be downloaded when next powered on. This could be an update to the built in guide, a revision of the You View app, or a seperate Satalite Guide Android app.This is a software issue, which can be resolved by sony.

Thay need to do it!I personaly bought this TV precicesly because it has both terestrial and satalite tuners built in as I live in an area with no retestrial signal. I am astonished that a premium brand like Sony think it is ok to only provide a descent EPG for terestrial chanels, whilst expecting satalite users to put up with a useles EPG. Sony need to pull their finger out and fix this urgently as a software upgrade.Other than these software issues I am delighted with my new TV.The question is when will sony update the software to provide a descent user friendly satalite EPG? It is not true as an earlier poster stated that Gracenote is no longer on Sony TVs.

I have an Android TV 2015 KD-43X8307C and the guide states that it is powered by Gracenote. I also have the older model in which the same problem is solved by the 'launch and search' option but this is not available on the newer AndroidTV.This is simply poor implementation. Lots of useful feature in the newer TVs but you have to get the basics right first Sony, first and foremost it is a TV and that is what most users expect. I bought a new Sony becasue the 2014 model worked as I wanted but now find that the newer model is a retrograde step in terms pf the Guide information. The system is connected to the Internet but no guide data unless you visit the channel or a family of channels i.e. ITV and then only now and next. I get data about what is coming up today in the TV Highlights secttion but if I select a reminder then it compains I should select something from the Guide!!!

At the moment I am using Sideview instead of the guide some of the time but it is smallon on a mobile phone and I don;t see why I have to invest in a tablet just to have a working TV Guide and remote that I can see.We need a statement from Sony about this and if this will be resolved in the Feb 2016 update. Hi I also had this problem probably for about 6 months beginning to think something wrong with my tv NO EVENT INFORMATION AND NO SIGNAL! TV 32R433B, took it back and same thing was happening. Touch wood it seems to have corrected itself! Although I am having problems with recording. I even tried ringing freeview and they said as they would not having problems in the area! I cannot record keeps saying no usb recognized paid out for an external drive and cant get to work!
