I performed a retune on my Panasonic Freeview HDD/DVD Recorder the other day, in order to pick up the new HD channels.

When I've retuned previously, the device has offered a 'Sort by Region' option as opposed to 'Sort by signal quality'. This time, there's no option to sort by region, and the machine sorts the channels with STV first, STV+1, then others in random sequence, with STV as channel 800.

With the 'sort by region' option, BBC1 would be channel 1, BBC2 channel 2, STV channel 3, etc.

Is this something that's missing from the transmission stream, or due to a change that's been made?

I haven't made any changes at my end other than installing a better quality flylead from the wall aerial socket to the recorder

What form is this interference expected to take?

We experience occasional dropouts, pixellation and spitting noises. Due to the intermittent nature of these occurrences, it's difficult to isolate a cause.

Is this likely to be caused by interference from a mobile mast?

I've upgraded the aerial fly lead to a high quality fully-screened one. The aerial feeds a distribution amplifier which feeds multiple rooms in the house.

Still can't get the channel list sorted by region - has no-one got any advice? It seemed this was a fairly active thread/forum when I joined up....
