increased chances of finding channels, support for EPGs from multiple countries at the same time, and so on
try/except for expired EPG urls or malformed gzip/xml files; cleanup mpv OSD when changing channel
the cache is refreshed at least once a day and dramatically speeds up loading the EPG
when a channel is added to favorites, its provider's EPG urls are appended to an internal list (favorites' EPG); this list is loaded when the favorites button is clicked
if you set multiple EPG urls you can easily get multiple entries for the current TV show. Press G multiple times to show them all (in the order you choose when setting EPG urls). TV shows with abnormal duration are automatically skipped.
cache not needed anymore
unfortunately some EPG services allow a limited number of downloads per day, so caching is necessary
huge EPGs load dramatically faster

(tested in Italy; EPG url is supposed to be a gzipped xml)
