Hi CyberSimian
I found ScanChannelsBDA_UK very useful. BTW, it showed 746000 as having good strength and signal, but no channels. Interestingly, MediaPortal picks up the channels for 746000 from Crystal Palace.
I found a weird thing when I edited UK.Crystal Palace.xml. I created a copy first. Windows called it UK.Crystal Palace - Copy.xml. Then, when I went into TV Server Configuration, 'Crystal Palace - Copy' appeared in the Region/Provider field (dropdown) of the scanning screen. I realigned this to Crystal Palace for all of my tuners. I then removed 'UK.Crystal Palace - Copy' and the next time I opened TV Server Configuration > Scanning, Darvel appeared in all of my tuners. Now, I think this is a bit weird, because I would have expected the Region/Provider field to be selected by name, when it in fact seems to be selecting by position in the list.
This was very confusing. I only noticed this behaviour because every time I scanned I was getting the old tuning parameters when I new I had deleted 754000 from the list. It was then that I noticed that the Region/Provider field was saying Crystal Palace - Copy and I went through the procedure I described above.
BTW, you can test for Review hanging the next time there is a channel change and try viewing one of the moved channels. I forgot to mention that when I try to view a channel from the EPG that hangs in the TV Channels area, the EPG also hangs. So, I think the issue is serious and will need one of the developers to fix it
