I don't know what your problem is, but maybe I can give you some clues.  I'm in the states (using DirectTv), so I don't know if any of this applies, but here goes:


> RT id 1761 (Animal Planet +1) not known in channel ids file
> RT id 1762 (Auctionworld) not known in channel ids file
> RT id 1763 (Classic FM TV) not known in channel ids file
> RT id 1764 (Discovery Home & Leisure +1) not known in channel ids file
> RT id 1766 (S4C2) not known in channel ids file
> RT id 1767 (Thomas Cook TV) not known in channel ids file
> RT id 1855 (Travel Channel 2 (satellite)) not known in channel ids file
> RT id 1859 (ITV3) not known in channel ids file
> RT id 1860 (BBC2 Northern Ireland (Digital)) not known in channel ids file
> RT id 1861 (BBC2 Scotland (Digital)) not known in channel ids file
> RT id 1862 (BBC2 South East) not known in channel ids file
> RT id 1863 (GMTV2) not known in channel ids file

Looking at my 'channel' table:
- chanid ranges from 1002 through 1073
- chanid 1002 corresponds with cable channel 2,
- chanid 1003 with cable 3,
- chanid 1004 with cable 4,
.....
- chanid 1073 with cable 73, etc.

- there is no chanid 1000 in my channel table
- it's only a guess, but I'm assuming the database is arranged with cable channels in one range and next media in another range.  I would have to assume that chanid 1761 would match-up
with 'some media - channel 61', or something like that.

Looking through my database I see sourceid used twice:
- Defined in the videosource table and has all the logistics about the listing service
datadirect, my user name , my password, freqtable, etc.
- It's also found in the channel table

- The sourceid is '1' in all cases (I only have one source - datadirect)

So, where's it getting 'challengetv.co.uk' ?  Are you sure it's looking where you think it's looking?

Don't know if any of this helps, but ... maybe.  Good luck,
