UNSILENCED MK2 Sky EPG Music simulation
In January 2018, Sky discontinued the broadcast of their long standing EPG music service for older, OpenTV-based STBs. This is intended to be a small C# utility to simulate the EPG background audio.
This is achieved through the use of the present Sky Gnome protocol, more information can be found at https://www.dusky-control.com/gnome-protocol.shtml
