    That file should include the frequencies which will change on 18th April, so it is normal that some transponders in the file have no signal now. After 18th April, some different transponders will have no signal, but you should still get all channels. We will clean the files up once the switchover is complete.

    Hi Ray,

    I may be wrong, but I appear to have all of the channels that I am expecting to have, even with no signal on scanning on the several transponders.

    I think there is another re-tune sceduled for later in the year so maybe they are still messing with it.

    [edit] elliottmc: that confirms what I thought. thanks for all of your help.

    Thanks,
    Chris

    Hi folks,

    Just to let you know I've tried elliotmc's updated Crystal Palace xml file and all channels are working great. Although every BBC radio station is now picked up twice, along with duplicate TV channels BBC Parliament, Cbeebies and BBC Four, but I guess that's due to the additional details in the xml file.

    Absolutely top job!

    Many thanks.
    Si

    Edit: One other thing, is it possible to get the HD channels added in the new version, or will this always be a manual tune?

    Thanks for the updated crystal palace file.
    I added 554000 to it as another transponder as suggested here, then the HD (DVB-T2) channels tuned successfully too.

    Cheers

    Crystal Palace went through DSO1 today, and DSO2 (and final completion) will be on 18th April.
    Today the frequency 490000 was turned up in power, so I did an advanced scan on that frequency only with a tick in 'get transponder list' which worked a treat. Will have to repeat on 18th April.

    I will check the file against the frequencies again, and fix it if necessary for the next release.

    Cool, cheers!

    Anyone else had BBC Four, Parliament and CBBC show up twice after a scan?

    Yep. And all the BBC radio stations too.

    Because there are some extra frequencies in there to take care of before and after the switchover, it is possible that you are picking things up from a different transmitter.

    Try the attached file.
