Nothing big but a lot of peoples cable boxes have channels with 4 digits now. It would be nice if mp could change to those channels.

4 digits?!? With over 1000 channels being transmitted through the air, we're all sure to get cancer....

In the case of our US provider Dish Network they are using them for foreign TV services, US HDTV and 'others' such as college/university extention programs, etc. A lot of these, especially foreign TV services, are aleady in the first 1000 but maybe they are gradually migrating to 4 digits or something.

Thank you very much for the tip. The Germany-Full doesn't have all the channels either. But I've now found out that I can read the frequencies using DVB-Viewer, which also receives all the channels I can receive. I'll use that to create my own channel file. Let's see if that works.

Thank you for pointing out that my analysis may be less than accurate. :eek: :p Although the change to TV channel 71 may not also have been applied to the independent radio channels (different MUXes), the logs that I prepared for one of the development team does show a difference between channel 704 ("BBC Radio 4") and channel 731...
