Polish channels not properly linked with EPG channels.

Description
Environment: https://github.com/iptv-org/epg/commit/9d20d1f49e8496c5a46d693a9a97b29d8618a7c9 (Docker-container grabber does not start the queue on the fresh master, 2025-10-26)
- Prepared a channels.xml file with lang="pl" channels only.
- Deployed a docker container with it mounted, run the grabber.
- Used the resulting file, guide.xml, as the EPG for the pol.m3u playlist inside Televizo.
Expected result: the channels work, and the TV guide is displayed for most of the channels in the playlist. Actual result: the channels work, but the TV guide is displayed for only two or three of them.
Example of a channel where the guide is displayed:
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="PolsatJimJam.pl@SD" tvg-logo="https://i.imgur.com/GjppUlg.png" group-title="Kids",Polsat JimJam
Example of a channel where the guide is not displayed:
#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="TVP2.pl@SD" tvg-logo="https://i.imgur.com/XxCc32B.png" group-title="Undefined",TVP2 (1080i) [Geo-blocked]
Most certainly because the tvg-id on the EPG doesn't match the tvg-ids in the IPTV playlist.
Sounds more like an IPTV problem than an EPG problem. Therefore, not a broken guide.
@BellezaEmporium Hey!
So.. Will it be fixed? I am afraid, this issue will be lost at the very bottom of the backlog.

It'll most certainly be fixed, but I can't know when. Personally, i'm on multiple projects at once and I have limited time to check the multiple repositories.
No prob! I am not sure though, whether this issue should be tagged differently now, or even moved to another repo for better visibility 👀
The thing is, your channel list pol.channels.xml contains an incomplete ID:
<channel site="programtv.onet.pl" lang="pl" xmltv_id="TVP2.pl" site_id="tvp-2-323">TVP 2</channel>
The correct ID can always be found in our channel lists:
<channel site="programtv.onet.pl" site_id="tvp-2-323" lang="pl" xmltv_id="TVP2.pl@SD">TVP 2</channel>

The same applies to the other channels.
Not my fault 😃

Seems like it was fixed around 3 weeks ago. I will be able to test it in a couple of days, will write a comment with the results.
@freearhey thank you for investigating 🙏
@freearhey
It definitely got better, but the EPG is still missing for 37 channels out of 83.
