Multiple EPG Updates?

I had a problem tonight with my favorite show - 24.

The Pres scheduled a last minute (or at least since the last EPG update) speech for 7:20-8:20 CDT and delayed the start of the current 24 episode.

Unfortunately, my EPG didn't update until 9:24pm. So, SageTV didn't know the shows were delayed, it recorded, and missed the last 20 minutes of the show.

Can I / How can I:
1) schedule multiple daily EPG updates?
or
2) schedule the daily EPG update for a specific time?

I've figured out that I can use the Sage Webserver to force an EPG update, which will start 24-hour countdown to another update -- so I can do that about 5:30pm and get the EPGs just before prime time.

But, I'd rather that be a configuration option -- in sage.properties or such.

Ideas?

A FAQ entry for you. You can't schedule multiple updates since it automatically updates once per day. You could, however, set it to update an hour or so before prime time.

Thanks, Andy. I didn't spot that when searching.
