Hi, yes you can turn off before rescan, just posted this on another thread, not sure how to send you link so here goes again ..

Try the following, it turns off fav.sort before you do a scan. Unfortunately it is one shot only, you have to remember to do this everytime you need to re-scan. Take care if you press OK inadvertantly it mucks it all up again :-(

1. Menu
2. Fast installation
3. Red Button for advanced install
4. Arrow down to fav.sort
5. Arrow right to select off

Take care NOT to press OK at any stage

6. Press exit on remote
7. This will take you to ch/frequency table

Now carry on as normal

Select frequency or frequencies
Blue button for manual scan.

Good luck and hope it helps.

You don't need to do the turning auto sort off bit.

Just go into "Fast Install" and instead of pressing red like it asks you to just press "Exit" you'll then be taken to the frequency table where you continue as normal.

I think the turning auto sort off bit may be a red herring.
