Hi Damien,
Have you tried to do a full scan by yourself using dvbscan instead of
using the supplied channels.conf from Chris?
Since there was no channels.conf available for me I had to do that for
myself by building a au-Wollongong file from the frequencies given at
dba.org.au for my area.
I don't know if this would help but at least you would be doing things
from scratch to get the channels, I have got SBS with no troubles where
I am.
With Chris's new changes I didn't have to apply any offsets to channel
frequencies at all.
Cheers,
Brett
