DVBViewer playing up!!!

Everythings fine with DVDBViewer, then suddenly tonight, the BBC channels and more importantly BBCHD wont play anymore. I can still play other channels like True Movies etc. So I re-install DVBViewer and start again but when I do a scan there's no BBCHD or Film 4 (I know it shows as a number). Have they changed the transponders or something? It seems really weird that suddenly this should happen.
Any ideas?

I would imagine that it is a signal &/or LNB problem. BBC & ITV channels plus Film4 are all on Astra 2D in the lower LNB tuning range. True Movies is on Eurobird 1 in the upper LNB tuning range.

Thanks Nigel. I'll tweak around with it for a while.

Re: DVBViewer playing up!!!

OK, I did a scan and set it at a lower frequency than the presets and I've managed to get BBC HD back thank goodness. BBC channels are ther too(except 3 and 4 so far) and I've got the ITV channels (except ITV4) plus Film Four.
The question is why did these disappear in the first place? Weird.
