    If someone could (if allowed) post working frequencies for ex-c&w east london it would be a bonus. :)

    Go to the offending channel: menu, instalation, manual scan, ok, let it complete, exit it out to a tv channel, it is sometimes there when you exit or sometimes its at the top of the channel listing i.e the highest tv channel number, then you just move it back to where you want it.

    I found a fix on the for me.
    Which was to remove all the BICS channels, then rescan, you should get your Setanta back then.
    In fact my Setanta channels were 'hidden' among the BICS channels.

    I found my channels hidden in the BICS too. I don't fancy deleting all of them though, knowing my luck they'd disappear altogether lol! I'm happy with what i've got, but cheers anyway.

    These are in your listings of channels, just go thru them bbc1, bbc2 itv etc etc to you come to a load of channels BICS the setanta sporrts, gollf etc are under these.

    ok, i been trying to sort this and i think i have a workaround, works for me anyhow, go to channel edit, scroll to the sentanta channels and you will see two of each sentanta channels, select one, then the other, one will work one wont, rename the one that wont work, do this for all the sentanta channels which are doubled, save and exit, should work, mine does, im watching football on it now,
