    Having recently bought the FVP-5000T I have received my first request to retune the recorder/player.

    Unfortunately, Freeview Play -> Settings -> Channel Settings does NOT allow either Automatic or Manual Channel Search. Both options are permanently greyed out(*)

    So how do owners of this box retune it?

    (*) The only option available is Signal test.

    Were you trying to retune while a recording was in progress, or imminent? If so, that would be your answer.

    Thanks for your reply. You must have been correct because, taking your advice, I waited until I was absolutely sure nothing was either being recorded or about to be recorded, and Automatic Channel Search became available:-)

    And then a Smart Retune did the trick (none of the multitude of scheduled recordings were lost:-)

    So thanks again:-) Excellent:-)
