[QUOTE="doveman, post: 672012, member: 67412"] Thanks for the information about Channel One. Is there a Channel One+1 to replace Virgin 1+1 as well, or has that gone? As for the rescanning problems, Freeview STBs don't seem to have this problem of losing channels that aren't broadcasting when rescanning. Don't BBC3/4 broadcast a placeholder signal even when there's no actual programmes on? Couldn't the whole mapping channels to cards, etc be automated when doing a scan. I don't see why I need to manually map the channels as I want all channels mapped to both of my Freeview tuners and I want the EPG data grabbed for all channels. The only thing I think I should need to do manually is assign channels to a group, to exclude the ones I never want to see, and put them in the order I like. As it is, I generally find when these problems crop up I need to delete all channels and rescan anyway, as I don't know which channels are correct and which are redundant entries. I've posted two images showing the problem with Big Deal: [IMG]http://i56.tinypic.com/2dlol1f.png[/IMG] [IMG]http://i56.tinypic.com/28mfsjt.png[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
