Legend & True Crime channels missing

[TimK2015]

Hi Folks

Looks like the Legend and True Crime channels have gone the same way as the U&xxxx channels. Whilst flipping through the channels tonight they were coming up as 'scrambled or not available'.

I applied the same technique, delete the offending channels and Freesat tune, and they re-appeared in their full fuzzy glory. Has anyone seen mention of this elsewhere?

They are now MP4 coded rather than MPEG2.

as are the STV and ITV+1 SD channels on the same Transponder.
No idea when those changed, though.

Thats.... channels might be next; perhaps with Talking Pictures as well?

I think it has happened with "BLAZE" as well - can someone confirm ?

Has anyone complained to Freesat about this problem with our -HDRs? I don't watch these channels so have no reason to do so.

I suspect other channel moves from MP2 to MP4 coincided with a DVB-S to DVB-S2 change and/or transponder move and were caught by the overnight auto tuning updates? Otherwise all those other SD channels now using MP4 would have caused problems.
