It would be interesting to know if this happens once you have arranged your favourites with the new software in place.

I would wonder if this is merely a 'quirk' happening with the channel info upload?

A bit harsh to say software is flawed! You're watching the telly aren't you????

New software is NOT flawed, you just didn't backup your channel list first as suggested many times in the forum.

If the firmware detects you are upgrading the firmware (From the Oct 07 version for example) It performs a factory reset to ensure that the new features work properly.

i take it you saved your channel list before you updated the firmware, then downloaded the saved file back onto the newly flashed box..........or did you ??????

i backed up my channel list before the new firmware
but if i scan for any new channels it stuffs up my favs, i have to unplug to get it back to how it was.
so i'd say there is a slight problem with it

Why did you scan if you have a CDF file already.

AUTOSORT is a brand new feature incorporated into this release originally introduced in the 28/3/08 release.

This feature put your channels into a fav listing when you did the scan.
