For anyone using the DVB-S EIT data they appear to be doing an SID swap 
on Sunday night, and as such FOUR won't be appearing on a new SID. EPG 
data for FOUR is already appearing in the C4 listings as of Sunday , and 
the new lineup for C4 is showing up in the C42 data.

Hence on DVB-S 12456H will change as follows on Sunday Night
SID 1921 becomes FOUR
SID 1940 becomes C4

Looking at the EIT stream I'm expecting to see the same swap there so 
you will need to update your channel names and associated icons etc.
