Some channels missing - Techwatch Support Forums: Digital & Satellite TV, FTA, Cable, Computers, Mobile Phones, Apple and General Tech Forums

Hey guys,

I am aware that there are a few threads here just now with roughly the same title, however they don't seem to provide a solution.

Basically some channels (such as ITV4, Bravo and Challenge) are gone, nothing comes up except a black screen. This has been the case for about 3days now. I have tried disconecting and reconnecting the cable, doing channel updates and manual scans. All to no avail.

Also noticed in the install but that the Quality level for some frequencies keeps jumping from around 20%-30%

Anyone got any idea what this could be>

Cheers

Cheers for the reply m8

I don't think that'd work though, because it's not my 555 freq that's down. It's 131 and 291. Hmmm

Then you are not in the Notts area. You can backup your channels, then factory reset deleting all channels, then do a fresh scan, that will find everything. You can then look for the moved frequency and reload the backup list and change the frequency like detailed in the other thread.

Of course, the new scan may be OK and not worth the hassle of editing your channel list
