delete all missing channels in bouquets and same in all services.. do a bruteforce scan and all the channels will re appear in all services just put them back into specific folder and there you go.. takes a wee bit of time but works a treat.

Had the same problem.
Finally sorted it by auto scan on Grimsby 1 NTL.
Good luck

Sorry forgot to say in my excitement.
Glasgow area,
lost most of the discovery channels bout a week ago, been messing about with it since.
My 500C hasn't missed a beat in over a year, so fingers crossed.

Maybe your emu is turned off. If you are using dk image hold on the info button on remote and restart the evocam. Hope this helps.
