Default Re-scanned but still no channels available?

Hi,

I have a dbox2 with the Sportster image v1.7. A few channels disappeared a few days so I have re-scanned. I am in the birmingham area so have scanned with the "cableuk sym6952" settings, fast scan off, manual scan off.

All the transponders and channels are found and these also displayed in services.xml file. After the scan, the box has been re-booted, but none of the channel are displayed with the exception of the standard free view channels. I have re-scanned several times now but without any success.

Am i missing something in the re-scan process? .I have tried to check previous postings but have not found anything that could help. Would appreciate any help or pointers to a previous posting.

Thanks
