    it would sometimes be better running an automatic search on the sat you have missing channels on as you may be missing more than you think,or if its only one or two that have gone you need to enter all the data that the new channel has moved to and delete the non working one,the ideal bookmark on pc to have is this.
    Astra 1N / Astra 2A / Astra 2D / Astra 2F / Eutelsat 28A / Eutelsat 28B (28.2?E) - All transmissions - frequencies - KingOfSat

    others use channel bouquets but they are short lived as when channels move more greyed out channels appear,always look for latest.do you have auto bouquet maker?
    menu--setup---service searching---autobouquetsmaker----providers-select your location as mine is sly irl and republic of ireland-green for ok--start scan takes a few mins and will update your bouquets .

      Thanks cactikid
      I do have ABM and i have set it up, i have done a full scan 28.2 and all the missing channels are now there but i dont know if it was luck as after i went to ABM to do a bouquet scan they were all in the right place
      So to get missing channels the procedure is:
      1. full scan on 28.2
      2. scan ABM
      is this correct
      Thanks

        no need for a full scan prior to running ABM as abm it self scans the satellite to generate the bouquet. occasionally sky make changes that corrupt the lamedb file, during those times just FTP into the box and delete the lamebd file from /etc/enigma2 then restart enigma and run ABM again, it will now pickup the channels again
