    Hi all, i am looking for some help please. I bought a SAB unix triple HD tv box from Freetv.ie last Jan. Then i brought it to a another guy who set it up for me with a code so i could watch all channels(sports, movies, ect)
    When i got it back all channels are working ok except any channel with the word discovery in the title (Discovery channel, Discovery histroy and so on)
    Anyone ideas what might be wrong?
    Its not cables/ satellite problems because if i plug another box into the same cable it works ok.

    Do a full automatic scan. They may have moved. Then after the scan run autobouquets again.

    Thanks Frosty Jim, i did a full automatic scan took about 30min and found 971 channels, also ran the autobouquets.
    But the result is the same no discovery channels working.
    Any other ideas?

    Autobouquets setting are as follows.
    The following boxs are ticked
    other extras
    NIT scan
    Custom swap
    Script check
    Numbered
    Hide
    Default

    The following are not ticked
    Auto picon
    Child friendly
    FTA only

    Does this look ok?

    Thanks for your help..

    Thanks tan flash but I done that too and no joy. It shows the channel there and good signal strength but no picture or sound.

    Must be a clearing issue, try another line?

    Ok a bit past my skill level! Or is it easy?
    I must get someone to have a look if not easy to do.
