When your player application displays *"No Information Available"* or shows tomorrow's schedule for tonight's match, it often means your iptv not working uk guide is suffering from a cache desynchronization.
Follow this 3-step guide to restore complete 7-day electronic program guide (EPG) schedules.
Step 1: Clear the Corrupted EPG Data Cache
Over weeks of streaming, local EPG database files can accumulate outdated data that blocks new program schedules from downloading.
- ✓ **In TiviMate:** Open **Settings** $\rightarrow$ **EPG** $\rightarrow$ **EPG Sources** $\rightarrow$ Click **Clear EPG Data**.
- ✓ **In IPTV Smarters Pro:** Go to **Settings** $\rightarrow$ **Time Format / EPG** $\rightarrow$ Click **Refresh EPG**.
- ✓ **In HotPlayer:** Navigate to **Settings** $\rightarrow$ **Account** $\rightarrow$ **Reload EPG**.
Step 2: Calibrate Timezone & Time Shift Offsets
If your TV guide lists a 3:00 PM kickoff at 4:00 PM or 2:00 PM, your device’s internal clock or player time shift is misconfigured:
- ✓ Set your TV/Firestick system clock to **Automatic (GMT London Time)**.
- ✓ In your player EPG settings, adjust **Time Shift** to **0 hours** (or **+1 hour** during British Summer Time / BST).
Step 3: Force-Update EPG Sources
Once the cache is cleared and timezones are aligned, click Update EPG Sources. The app will download fresh XMLTV schedule data directly from the server in under 30 seconds.
