I saw something similar a couple of days ago around 6pm to 7pm, went off a few times, when it came back was weaker than usual.

I checked both my 90cm and 60cm dishes with completely different lnbs and it was down on both only temporarily. Very strange

Red Button channels have returned, currently showing scrolling test card on the SD channels and BBC News on HD. Same parameters as before on 12422 H 27500.

I've heard that apparently the BBC have left some information out of the Transport Stream on 12.422H and some boxes can't lock onto it. Which actually includes using Manual Tuning on Sky+HD if you are in ROI and don't have it on the EPG. I'd love to know what they left out to cause this.

Could just be the Sky EPG has flagged these channels in it's database so they aren't found in a manual scan at the behest of the BBC or a Wimbledon rights holder in Ireland.

That's possible I suppose. The funny thing is that there is no Irish Wimbledon rights holders - the last one- Eir Sport went out of business last November!
