We need a full-fledged 7-day EPG, not cut to the current + next EPG program.

Make a full-fledged 7-day EPG, and not the EPG that right now in Hellobox 8 has the current + next EPG program cropped.
With a full 7-day EPG, additional functionality will be added for the Hellobox 8 user:
1. watching a TV program up to 7 days + a short description of the TV program (depending on the channel if the EPG is included in the broadcast signal), rather than looking for a TV program on the Internet or somewhere to know which TV program is expected in the middle of the day or the next day.
2. the ability to program a TV program on the timer from the EPG for the current day, the next day ... until the end of the week (until the seventh day) (depending on the channel - if the signal contains EPG)

Another small timer suggestion:
1. Add to the timer mode (Play. Record, Record & Standby) another Standby mode. Which can be used as a sleep timer or if you use a timer in Play mode or turn on several timers at one time and then switch to another channel by timer with an interval of minutes, then after the second timer ends, Hellobox 8 switches to the last channel before the timer starts. In the presence of the Standby timer mode, it was possible to program so that after the last Hellobox 8 timer, it would go into standby mode and not remain in the on mode.
2. Add the Weekly mode selection by day of the week (with the choice of the day Monday - Sunday (for each day of the week it was possible to put a tick)). To implement this option, you need to slightly modify the clock - so that it recognizes the day of the week. If the timer has this option, then the Hellobox 8 user can get rid of duplicate Weekly timers that are programmed for different days at the same time.



P.S.
I have Hellobox 8 NEW

Please update new firmware for this function. WE NEED IT like other premium receiver. If better it can set reminder for next program and auto can go to next program if there another channel. Please fix the name recording, example : (Channel Name)(Program Name)(Date/Time). Sample : TV3 HD-THE JUNGLE BOOK (2016)(28052020_14.00). This is better. Right now, the name recording (Channel Name)(Date)(Time). Please Fix immediately. TQ
