North America has no EPG on C band. The EPG information for North America is available for lots of channels on both C and Ku bands, but it has to be hunted. There are versions or instances of some users getting EPG to work for C band and Ku band, but it is usually a complicated thing that seems to only work properly for them.
We can introduce AI directly into the FTA receiver. Doing this of course requires an Internet connection. But, since AI is an assistant, some otherwise amazing things could be done such as populating the EPG for all channels that have EPG somewhere on the public Internet. Cleanups to the receiver, edits to the receiver, automatically fixing crashes (for whatever reason) are also possible.
So I had a conversation with Claude Code about the vision or idea of installing the AI directly into the SF8008 receiver. I figured it would go nowhere, but the AI has other ideas. "OK" I said "Prove to me that it works. Tell me what is playing on Heroes East now and what will be next". To be fair, I pointed the AI to Lyngsat for channel and transponder information . The AI did his search and came back with a website I had never heard of, then produced the correct information I asked for. Nice!
Next is how to implement my EPG discovery. This part of the conversation got a bit lengthy. Then I requested a complete report which is attached. Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code all have a great understanding of enigma2 systems and how they operate. So once you get the AI into the fta receiver, the battle will be pretty much won, as you would simply allow the AI to access the parts of the receiver you want him to have.
Putting the AI directly into the FTA receiver is one of my main goals. Once this is done, the door is wide open on what can be accomplished. The attached .md file explains the process and serves as a starting point. This aint no small project and would need to be implemented in steps. An Android phone connected to the fta receiver would probably work best, then you have voice control! We will see...
These .md reports generated by the AI's are mainly put here for my reference, and because I think they may be interesting to others. On some projects, TSDuck for example, several .md reports were generated in the process of adding it to TNAP command line. A couple of .md reports were drawn up discussing the TSDuck implementation and several more were made while getting TSDuck implemented into the receiver. You can take all of the .md reports on a subject and present them to the AI as a set of documents, who then becomes completely aware of what you were doing and how you got to where you are at. This saves valuable time and money.
This is the best FTA project.
