[QUOTE="JDWestoby, post: 1121715, member: 72093"] Wow! Sorry, didn't mean to open a can of worms. OK, the basis for this is my (Panny) TV comes up at fairly regular intervals and says 'New channels found' - so what am I missing? Probably not much - I admit. But this prompts me to rescan (not always) on MP - which means I get those darned channels I deleted (or otherwise moved) back. Now, yes, I am somewhat retentive about this, but I don't like having things around I don't want (hear that wife!). SO I'd like to say to MP, yes I know you've found Sky 1 but I can't see it (anymore since they moved to the new cards, shame) so go away. You are probably 100% right about not having any performance impact (mm1352000) - cripes, it's running on a 3GHz AMD! (SSD for C:, pagefile/recordings on 2TB D: and a 5GB T: for timeshifting/temp.) The only factor in my defence is that every so often I do a C: backup and having a bigger database means it takes more space. I also agree that the TV server config is probably the worst (wrong word but you know what I mean) bit of MP and I wouldn't like to complicate it further either. I really didn't mean to start anything this involved - maybe I should just make FreeSat/FreeView groups and hide rather than delete the encrypted channels (as mm1352000 originally said). Heck, glad I haven't got my motorised dish up and running! Eeee, I'll have to have a play - when I get some time on the box (records stuff all these days anyway!). (Just have to ignore the fact that my database is full of stuff I don't want.) Seriously, I am absolutely gob smacked at how people here are SO engaged. If it weren't the case I would never have persisted with MP for the last 8 (I think) years..... Thank you to one and all. [/QUOTE]
