They converted the mpeg2 signal for mpeg4. That's the reason. You must have a mpeg4 receiver.

You can get these feeds on DVB.S2 mpeg4 @125w
>PBS/HD
>VMe
>Deutsche-Welle

DN/HD turbo fec tuner not good,
go for OpenBox, AZBox Bravoo+
plus other free-to-air DVB.S2 tuner or PC card

Rescanning, setting the TP up,or getting a new switch will do nothing to get these channels back.

You will need a new receiver, one that will work with MPEG-4.

They switched from MPEG-2, to MPEG-4 several months ago, and kept the MPEG-2 up and running till their feed customers were upgraded to new receivers, if your old receiver can't pick them up now, it never will.

i believe azbox elite supports mpeg-4. but why no Q? it has nothing to do with mpeg-4.
