[QUOTE="Digsy, post: 1260157, member: 163222"] Thanks for the replies, all. Maybe I'm getting my terminology in a twist. I should say "free to air" rather than "Freesat". I definitely could in the not too distant past receive all those channels. I did used to use EPG collector and yes I did have to run two separate collections, one using "Freesat" settings and one using Sky free-to-air settings, but gradually I started to notice drop-outs in the data. I never managed to get the MP2 internal grabber to work at all until recently. Just to be clear, I can still [I]receive[/I] these channels, or most of them, or at least [I]something[/I] is being broadcast (maybe the frequency has been re-purposed). But I can definitely still receive Channel 4, its just that I get no EPG for it. Also its really odd that in a lot of cases I can get an EPG for the "+1) channel, but not the non-timeshifted channel. Maybe I will go back to EPG grabber and try again, then compare the list of channels with no EPG data to the channels that have moved or ceased broadcasting. [/QUOTE]
