EPG (name correct) program guides are present in the digital stream, showing
what is running and what is next, this can be used to start recordings,
but I use a timer.
I agree it is a pity BBC has no teletext on satellite.
But as I use a PC with a sat card I can just call op the BBC and ITV website,
better then teletext even.
All German station still have the teletext stream on digital satellite, with
all info.
