Ditto Freesat just about to retune 2 x HDR FOX T2.

No SD version available?
So anyone with timers scheduled on 5 SD will probably have to re schedule on 5 HD?

Just had this issue with my 1100s, all programmes scheduled to record on C5 have disappeared
Just had to re-enter them all again from memory!

Just had to re-enter them all again from memory!That's because Channel 5 (In SD) is no longer on the epg. It has been replaced with Channel 5 HD ( A different channel with different SID's (Service Identifiers).

Bugger, with a memory like a sieve I'm bound to miss some programmes. Isn't it unusual for a broadcaster not to have both SD and HD variants?

They do have both versions, but have decided like DAYSTAR TV and NHK WORLD TV to use a single lcn. On SD boxes 105 will have the SD version and on HD boxes the HD version. Both SD and HD are on Freeview HD boxes. lcn 5 is SD and lcn 105 is HD.

So, on the Humax Freesat we just have the HD version, whereas on Freeview we have both SD and HD. With Freesat we have auto tune and no need to do anything with planner whereas with Humax freeview the planner gets totally wiped and one has to put them all in again (certainly with the 2000T) - hopefully the user has taken a pic of the schedule.
All this in 2016 hey!
