I've noticed that EPG info routinely all disappears, typically notice this happening on start it's just not there. Clearing all EPG data and letting Kodi resync brings it all back, however it's pretty inconvenient to have to dig through menu's to do this several times a week. Curious if anyone has any ideas why this is happening, and more importantly how to fix it.

I have mine set to reload every time, think there was a bug with programs that had changed EPG so decided it was safer to read it every time, and I notice that when starting KODI some channels do not have EPG but a few seconds later they do, or pressing K for EPG, shows the EPG data OK. I believe it is because it is still reading the EPG from the backend. That's fine for me - never have to go in and reset it - just wait and it appears.

Nothing to add except this happens me as well and waiting doesn't help it appear. I too have to reset through settings. I'm using TVHeadEnd back end but this happened when I was on MediaPortal TVServer as well.

Have you tried a recent Kodi Krypton nightly build? I have changed many things in the epg area for Krypton and would be interested whether the problem reported here still occurs.

It's now blanked out again on the latest LibreELEC (Krypton) v7.90.002 ALPHA. So the bug appears to still be there.

There is a setting "do not store epg data in local db" (don't remember exact naming). By default it is off, to store locally.
Does turning it on (to not store data locally) help?

Krypton only: if you activate "async epg transfer" in the settings of the tvheadend pvr add-on, does this make any difference wrt to your problem?
