I have been able to find -“tune”= BBC One, Two and Three (all HD) but Four HD is eluding me, despite repeated scans.
This alert (image below) appears
Which I think tells me the version I am on dates back to Nov ’22.
Could this be the cause? Auto update is selected (has been for some time)
As I posted on the LE forum you will need to do a scan and then attach the zipped NextPVR logs here. On the LE forum @petediscrete suggested that this channel frequency is shared CBBC and BBC4 HD so will you potentially will need to two scans while the stations on-air.
I am not sure that NextPVR supports this use case on Linux and that is why the logs are important.
Also on the LE forum I asked you to follow up their forum on the addon update issue. The LE addon should automatically update but that is done with the LE software and you would need to paste a link to the Kodi debug log for the LE developers to look at.

Attached is the log after my latest scan.
Assuming 10818 is the correct frequency, no channels show on that mux in your scan.
This is likely because of this recent change to the Linux scan table
https://git.linuxtv.org/dtv-scan-tables....e77083a4b5
I suggest running this in a LE ssh shell.
Code:
curl https://git.linuxtv.org/dtv-scan-tables.git/plain/dvb-s/Astra-2E-28.5E?id=118e8c00436b524273499b6c01b0c4e77083a4b5 -o /storage/.kodi/addons/service.nextpvr/dtv-scan-tables/dvb-s/Astra-28.2E-current
and select that updated file for your next scan.

You could manually edit the scan table you are using to reflect the current status of 10818 V and BBC4 HD. I’ll let Martin go through that process with you. He enjoys all that ? Generally speaking these days scan tables are woefully out of date.
Since there is more than one frequency changed getting full updates with curl makes sense. You can't actually add BBC Four manually with NextPVR, you need to set the frequency first.
That’s something Sub may want to consider going forward if it’s possible. While scan tables are certainly useful they are only as effective as the people who maintain them. The ability to add/edit an individual mux within NPVR would certainly be an advantage. I’ve just completed my own local version of the Astra 28.2 satellite table which makes life a lot easier when running a fresh scan.
In principle I agree, but in practice it is pretty hard for a typically user to know what to enter for one channel. For one frequency it is a little easier but for a UI that means 4 different formats (the tuning.ini and the 3 different dvb conf formats) and even then you told us that Lyngsat is not reliable either. Do you know how reliable the KingOfSat files are or the files from
http://satellites-xml.org/
For the UK for dvb-t I could scrap some pages from
https://ukfree.tv/ and
https://www.freeview.co.uk/help/coverage-checker/ with python but I am not sure it is necessary.

Flysat is the most reliable and regularly updated satellite listing around. Gives a lot more detail than others too.

That is harder to scrape then the others. All I want is to be able to get a current list of active frequencies with FTA to create a conf file or tuning.ini file programmatically.
