UPC Direct broadcasts several channel for more than one country. They broadcast for Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia as I know.
That's why they broadcasts in more than two languages some channels and the EPG for thhose channels should be multi language I think. All I see is whith the philips STB got from UPC shows the EPG in Hungarian for me, and VDR on Linux shows it in an other (I think Polish).
