I am having one other problem where I'm set to record H&I East but sometimes it records StartTV instead. Similar thing happens when I select H&I East but StartTV shows up instead (sometimes). Happens on 4.1 also.
Yeah, that stinking StartTv seems to overpower the other channels in the 4Mhz separated Weigel channel mux, and it wants to lock to it. In my case, when I set recording for Movies! channel, it would lock to StartTv West instead. I found two things that stopped it for me:
1: I tweaked my dish position slightly, to UP my signal.
2: I changed deleted the settings for Movies! and manually re-scanned it in 1Mhz over. So, instead of 3928, I changed it to 3927. It still locked there, but isn't prone to going to StartTv West instead.
In my experience, USB compatibility with the Enigma2 STBs is related to the buffer size and throughput. Not all USB drives are created equal. Have thrown any many thumb drives through the years that worked great on a PB or Mac, but would not be recognized by a STB.
I find the PNY models to be trouble-free.
Here are a few thumb drives that I use daily to load OS onto the Edision OS Mio STBs:

It has a lot of updates in it, it seems to keep the 4Mhz Weigel mux on 101w better separated, and it definitely FINALLY keeps proper NTP time and date, even in Suspend mode.
I HIGHLY recommend loading it into a slot, and trying it for yourself. After all, you have 4 slots. It's almost like having 4 separate receivers.
Tnap 3.2 has a better epg for ATSC. Some reason after kernel 5.5.16 the infobar epg can show old data. Not really a big deal the channel selection screen has the correct epg info on Tnap 4.0 and 4.1. I just like to get the instant correct infobar epg as soon as the channel tunes. That's why I like Tnap 3.2 better.
Just load it in an spare slot, and try it for yourself. Unless you are using ALL 4 slots already? Otherwise loading it in another slot won't affect your present image if you don't like it for some reason.
You need to post that info at LegitFTA, if you want El Bandido to even be aware of it. First I've heard of this issue, so he likely doesn't know either. In which case it'll never be fixed. Post it in this thread: TNAP-4.1 Image -20210906 - Discussion
It was posted at legit when 4.0 was being tested. I even posted pictures showing the old epg data in the info bar. All images Openatv.Vix, ect. started doing this around the same time.
Post it again, so EB knows it's still an issue. Like he says: "The image is only as good as the effort put into it". That means we ALL need to provide feedback. If he doesn't get feedback either way, how is he to KNOW? Don't assume he see's or has the same issue and knows about it. You've read that not all of us have the same various issues, or use the receiver in the same way, or all the same switches, etc, etc.
It would probably be better to post the issue on the Openpli forum for someone who would know more how the epg data works. Problem is it seems to be just ATSC data and they don't use that over in their country. It is not just a Mio issue all e2 boxes I have are doing it. There is a work around, in the EPG menu turn off Show EIT now/next in infobar. Only problem with that is you have to wait for the epg to populate usually around 1 minute before epg shows up on the infobar. I like instant correct data.
There's fix for this that may work for you, per Megatron817 at LegitFTA: TNAP-4.1 Image -20210906 - Discussion - Page 3
Mike, I am Megatron817
Yeah that epg.dat file created using newer Kernel Openpli based images is not backward compatible with older kernel images like Tnap 3.2 so when you boot into multiboot slots with the different kernel the ATSC epg has to totally repopulate. Now that I have renamed TNAP 4.1 epg.dat to epg2.dat I can now switch from slot to slot and have epg as long as the dat files are recently updated and not out of date. That EPG refresh works like your timer trick but once the refresh completes the dat file gets saved to the usb/hdd. Seems to keep longer.
