    I could be wrong but if ABM is putting channels on an incorrect frequency, that would say to me that you have the wrong NetID. Some areas do have different NetID's and you could have a neighbouring one

    Not sure what other net IDs are around me in North London (Finchley) I could try. Is the only way to find the net id through a tivo box? Is it true 41047 doesn't exist anymore? I saw an older blog showing net ids and frequency for North West London NTL, 00000 000000 6887
    I'm tempted to try them, even 41050 which is West London (Sheperds Bush)

    Press Home then select ‘Help & Settings’, then ‘Systems Info’, then ‘Diagnostics’ and the top line is your NETID

    It's also possible that your full scan is puling in some un-encrypted test channels whilst ABM is pulling in encrypted regular channels that are not available with your viewing card.

    Perform a manual scan, selecting provider. It will take a while.
    Restart
    Transfer your lamedb and lamedb 5 files from /etc/enigma2 to your PC
    Zip/rar and attach here
    Hi i think the frequencies have changed in my area, i was going to upload my lamedb files but when u click on manual scan i dont see the (selecting provider) option

    If ABM locks and works, it will get the frequencies from the broadcaster.

    If it isn't, follow instructions in post 2. double check tuner config. Select complete.
    My mistake, there is no provider.

    I seem to have lost all of Sky Sports HD channels today. NetID is 00009.
    Did a full scan following your instructions and it picked them up, but they're just blank..

    Do you need me to post the scanned files too?

    Check your logs, Sky Sports in HD is becoming TiVo only on VM Cable, it will not be on any viewing card
