    Channel 4 has started to appear as "8300" in the channel list

    This started happening yesterday - Channel 4 started to appear as "8300" after an ABM scan. It used to work fine.
    See attached image.
    Anyone else seeing this?

    There have been transponder moves and, typically, Freesat/RedBee have not updated their info yet. This has happened numerous times in the past several months as ITV were closing their SD services and shuffling their main and +1 channels. Probably in the next week, the Channel 4 info will be updated. It's a broadcaster/distribution issue - not a box software problem. If you use ABM and the SKY bouquet, the info is already up-to-date.

    Looking at your screenshot again, that bouquet appears to be not created by ABM. Are you certain it's created by ABM? I have tried again, it's showing correctly. Perhaps I am using a different region to you. There were a few channels that livened up last week in preparation for a transponder change which has happened. If that bouquet is not created by ABM, that channel will stop working very soon.

    Thursday seems to be the day that Freesat/RedBee update their service information tables. It's happened several times now that the service list and EPG for migrated channels gets "fixed" on Thursday after a move. SKY seem to be much more proactive, but probably need to as it's a subscription service. I'm using London region Freesat and Sky ABM bouquets.
