UK Channel ITV4 Missing
Hi
What ever I try I can't get ITV4. I've done a full satalite scan and I have also done a single scan using 10758 V 22000 5/6.
I have a Humax Freesat recorder in another room and that gets ITV4 no bother at all.
Any advice welcomed.

Have you used guidetool or such ?
If you've deleted it the only way to get it back will be to redo tv set-up... Other than that I'm not sure.

Thanks for your response. No I haven't used the guide tool. Should I use it? And if so where do I download it from?
Are you saying that if I have deleted a channel by mistake then it will not reappear after a full satellite scan?

Get it from here http://1geek1tool.com/guidetool/
Install it and open it up with Media Center running (run it windowed so you can see both on screen). Guide Tool should connect and show you all the channels you have configured in your own particular setup down the left hand side. I can't remember but I think all your channels will be displayed with a 'tick' in the box. If the list you see ONLY contains channels with 'ticks' in the boxes then click on the icon at the top of guide tool which is a 'blue tick'. This will switch your view from ONLY the channels in your current media center and show ALL available channels - including encrypted one and channels that may have been hidden for whatever reason.
Look for your ITV 4 in that list - an easy way is to click 'name' at the top of the column so all channels are alphabetically displayed. If you find ITV 4 in that list and it doesn't have a 'tick' then put one in. Make a note of the channel number that is next to it and hop back to media center guide to see if its now there.
If you find it all well and good!
Some tips here as well for guidetool http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kgJXQv4saIU

All sorted.
I wiped the WMC channels following this guide.....
http://www.hack7mc.com/2009/09/clearing ... enter.html
Then did a full satellite scan which missed loads of channels. I then did several single transponder scans using the frequencies found here........

And finally I selected the channels I wanted using the guide tool mentioned earlier in this post.
Thanks to all who responded
