Hey John,<br><br>I think you are right. (not that it does me any good at this point). <br><br>I suspect that if you delete all video sources and connections before rescanning you can avoid these issues.<br><br>I did not delete anything before rescanning. I think that has triggered this bug.<br>
<br>I suspect the fix is a relatively simple manual edit of the transports stuff in the database.<br><br>I am kind of hoping someone can spell out to me what needs to be done to what table(s).<br><br>Cheers.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

</div></div>This crop of posts looks as if it has similarities with others, from the<br>
UK, that have arisen from our ongoing 'digital switchover' with its<br>
rearrangement of the earlier set of multiplexes and channels; mine is<br>
due next week but there was a mini-change earlier.<br>
<br>
It seems that the essential actions are to delete all digital channels<br>
and their transports before rescanning. If you know the frequencies of<br>
some of the new multiplexes enter them with the transport editor, enable<br>
searching for other linked transports, and _then_ rescan. If you don't<br>
do the deletions first the old stuff remains in the database and<br>
confuses everything.<br>
<br>
I don't know just how this will play in Oz, but I hope it might help.<br>
<br>
