The point is that a ?20 freeview box automatically sorts the channel list using the broadcast lcn data without any user intervention. Then of course all the channel numbering is correct and conforms to the UK freeview channel order. By using Tony's script we get the same functionality in vdr for UK Freeview channel numbering without having to manually resort the channel list every time we rescan. Your channel list below is not in UK Freeview LCN order of course. Channel 4 and 5 have been free to air for ages on freeview, cable and Sky by the way.
