well im afraid the thing we most were dreading has come today. Birmingham has today lost all front row channels with a message saying channel not available. well it was good while we had it just thought id post this so that we dont get bham people saying there front row is not working. Long live the Dbox and im sure we will be getting a trick were we can get VOD channels through our dbox as i always say nothing in life is impossible !

Forget vod - its not worth the hassle. As its only transmitted locally to the person who actually ordered the event there is absolutely no way for you to know either what the vod channels contain or when they start. Also the person who ordered the event is in complete control with the ability to fast forward/rewind/pause/stop etc. Could you really watch something like that !

Welcome to the world of VOD, you should be happy that we've all still got the main channels. Now that would be sad.

I had my box set up for 1 day before they switched to VOD (honest), I was gutted but I suppose it was a good thing because I never got use to having it.

yeh will do also if i do another scan on my box is it normal for no front row to apper once the channel scan has been done ?
 
Yes if you've gone VOD. BTW only older sportster images (1.73) can pick up front row on a scan.
