    After doing a scan for channels with my Eurovox decoder, the channel list is all over the place. I can order it by frequency or alphabetically via the menus, but how do I revert to the old "grouped" listing? i.e. Entertainment, News, Sports etc?

    Manual Move Channels

    Menu > Channels > Channel Manager > 1004
    Press RED button for SORT
    Go to the channel you want to move
    Press YELLOW button for MANUAL
    Move the channel to the order you want
    Press YELLOW again

    Repeat till you have them the way tou want

    Exit and it will save it for you

    You can also sort them into groups etc or maybe download a channel dump for your location and transfer it to your b0x

    A manual sort could take a while... unless I just do the ones I watch most I guess. How did the Eurovox know to group the channels by theme before though? I'll look into the channel dump...
    Thanks!

    OK, I've put my favourite 20 or so to the start. I'd love to know why I can't retrieve the "old" channel order though.
    Thanks!

    depends on wether you do a power scan or update channels a power scan will lose your channel order

    Ok, I can understand that a Powerscan might wreck the channel order, but how did the Eurovox know the order my NTL box had when I first installed it?

    Ah, of course. That'd make sense. I'll see about getting one of those channel list files for my area.
