Warning when SageTV loses it's internet connection?
Howdy,
I ran into a problem yesterday that caused me to miss a few shows. Somehow my Sage computer lost it's internet connection. Not sure what happened but I had to reboot it and it came right back. So I have a couple questions... (I think a few are in the FAQ but I want to get them all in one place) 1) When SageTV downloads the TV guide, how many days does it download at once? 2) If Sage loses its internet connection, does it just use the shows in memory it had already downloaded or does it stop working? 3) If Sage loses its internet connection, does it give any warning so I kow something is wrong? 4) Is there a log file that would include information I could check to see some errors as to when exactly it lost it's Guide info so I can research this on my end? It would be really helpful if Sage detected it had no internet connection if it could put a big warning icon on the screen somewhere so when I see it I know something is up. Also it would be very helpful if on the TV Guide area, there was a button to manually force it to go out and redownload the guide. I know I can remove and add a channel to get it to do that but there should relaly be a button or menu option to do this. Would there be a log |

Is there an official way to request a feature be added since many people don't check the live TV guide and look into the future all the time after we setup our favorites and get them going? If some sort of icon could show up on the window or in the tray or something stating that the EPG coudln't be updated and only XX days remain in the cache, that'd be most helpful.

Since there is a beta in progress, I would just submit a bug report & make it a feature request instead.
