Freeview is the one I'm having the problem with. I am using the Freesat
patch because I've got both types of card; the Freesat EPG is working,
the Freeview one isn't. I'll have a look at the patch later and confirm
that it adds the Freesat pids rather than replacing the standard ones,
but I'm sure they both used to work together and I haven't changed
anything recently.
