• Just reposting to say that even my attenuation isn't enough to stop this in all cases. It would be nice if future software versions had the option to make the channel rescans optional, rather than just deleting straight from the guide.

• Following other people's lead, I've added a small attenuator to my setup (to be precise, a signal splitter to take half the feed to another set, knowing that the Your TV change would usually knock out my channel list. It didn't so maybe there's something to the signal strength issue after all? I presume there was nothing…

• That's something I haven't tried, but is worth considering, I know the signal strength is very high. It's the fact that it lines up with configuration changes on the MUXes perfectly that still makes me wonder, but a bit of attenuation wouldn't go amiss to fix some other problems I've had.

• I did the very first time it happened, and given the lack of success I haven't bothered since, but I can always try that again and see.

• Just to say there was a configuration change yesterday in my area, I had the box on from 9 am (on standby), and this still happened with deletion, so I'm not sure leaving it on does work, even if it is tuned to a channel on the MUX in question.

• I think that the fix that was proposed to me will work for now (to ensure the box is fully 'on' when multiplexes change), until there's a proper fix.

• OK, found a pattern for this (I mentioned it in the PM that was requested, and seemingly ignored, by the support staff). The disappearing channels seem to be due to how Youview attempts to cope with changes to the internal channel list. Normally, if there is a change, the next time you tune in to that multiplex, it gets…

• I see there hasn't been any update to this, so I'll add my own. It's been stable for a week now, and coped with the most recent channel additions without any pain, so it makes me wonder if there's something in the software that handles how channel lists change that is throwing things off?

• Ok, here's my results all 100 for quality. The C numbers are the channels in terms of frequency. * Means a channel that has disappeared at least once following a Freeview reorganization. C47 (BBC A) 98 strength C44 (D3 +4) 97 C41 (BBC B ) 96 C51*(SDN) 96 C52*(ArqA) 96 C48*(ArqB) 97 C32 (COM7) 93 C34 (COM8) 93

• I'll take a look later, I'm not near the set at the moment. Do you want all strengths, or just those that disappear?

• I'm tuned to Emley Moor, and this change only happens when there's a reorganisation of Freeview such that the Guide table has to be altered. At that point, any channels on the affected locations that aren't specifically tuned to disappear. This isn't a strength issue as far as I can tell, the aerial reception is actually…
