When I go to "transponder edit" I have nothing about frequencies.
In satellite configurations, I have all satellites
But in satfind and rotor setup I have nothing.

I delete some lines in the file sateliites.xml (var/etc) because I need space, but I only deleted the sateliites I could not tune.

what can I do?

Please use the proper forum section. 3rd party development is for writing software etc. only.
Also, about which box are we talking?

One guess would be you deleted a bit too much from the satellites.xml, perhaps one too many </sat>, or a </satellites>, or a... ?

Required elements:

<satellites> (Beginning tag for entire satellites.xml)
<sat name=Unique Sat identifier, flags. & position> (for each sat)
</sat> (closing tag for each sat name= entry)
</satellites> (closing tag for entire satellites.xml)

... plus all the ", <, /, >, etc for each TP entry

Ps. If you edited the file on a windows machine, M$ carriage returns ( ^M ) "may" be choking the DB, not sure myself as I've never done it on M$...

Nothing appears obviously out of place with the format, at least in the beginning of the file...

Were the frequencies available in satfind, etc. before you edited the sat.xml?

Try installing a prepared channel list (should contain a working sat.xml) and see if the problem persists or frequencies are available.
