Am setting up my new LX5090H and am having problems with the Freeviw / EPG.

When in the 'Digital Tuner Setup' and then 'Installation' menu English is not available as an option. If I select one of the available languages eg Austrian and perform a scan it finds all the Freeview channels, however the EPG does not work - no listings shown, and the 'Tools' sub menu options within the EPG are greyed out.

I know the 'H' model was for Europe only and not the UK market, does this mean that I won't be able to get EPG to work?

Press Home Menu
Select Setup
Then System Setup
The Digital Tuner Setup
Select Installation

It will then prompt you for a PIN, try 0000

Select Digital Setup
Select Country

Then in that list select UK

Thanks for that - I was in that menu, and UK was not an available option - had loads of others, Austria, France, Spain, Germany etc.

However... just did a software update to v 0907-0701 and UK has now appeared in the options page listed above and EPG is working.

Link to software download incase anybody else with the H version suffers a similar problem:
