That's why I posted it for review, so people can send through updates. I don't 
know anything about these new channels yet so if you post the names of the 
new channels then can update the file.

This channels.conf file is for grabbing data from the Sky transponder with 
epgsnoop so the 1035/1036 should be whatever Sky says they are. Obviously a 
different channels.conf file would be needed if you wanted to grab the data 
from the freeview transponder.

I understand what you mean but... Don't the BBC channels in the UK have the 
same XMLTVID, no matter which source you get them from?
