The new software for the V8 golden has two formats for the EPG.
The one with many channels listed at once displays the wrong time and has programs missing, depending on what time zone you have set.
If you are using this format try changing to the older EPG format.

You may also like to reload the software again.
Don't forget to save your channel list and Softcam.key file.

I have firmware .421 (30/09/2016) installed on my v8 golden and its running without problems. Try isntalling this FW and than do a factory reset. See if that works for you.

Just to remind that all freesat receivers are freezing when we are using more than one active CLINE

Please freesat team try to fix this in next firmware release

This is relative big problem because all CLINE providers give several load balanced lines and using just one is really unstable.
