I think there is something wrong with EPG for Discovery Home & Health +1.
You have 3 entries in rytec.channels.xml:
1) <channel id="HomeandHealthplus1.uk">1:0:1:CCE2:90B:2:11A0000:0:0:0:</channel> <!-- Discovery Home and Health +1 -->
2) <channel id="HomeandHealthplus1.uk">1:0:1:1842:07d9:0002:011a0000:0:0:0:</channel> <!-- Discoveryhome and health +1 -->
3) <channel id="HomeandHealthplus1.uk">1:0:1:cce2:090b:0002:011a0000:0:0:0:</channel> <!-- Home and Health +1 -->
I think the second reference is no longer used and can be deleted. And references 1 & 2 seem to be the same, so one of them can be deleted, too.
However, I think your source is not correctly grabbed because the schedule is empty.
Could you please look into this? Or perhaps is there something wrong with my box?

Checked the grabber, and found that I downloaded only 2 days. This is maybe to problem. Changed it to the regurlar 5 days.

Thanks, Willy.
Could you check if there is no similar problem with normal Discovery Home and Health?
You have that under the following 2 entries, so, again, it looks like it is doubled unnecessarily:
<channel id="HomeandHealth.uk">1:0:1:1840:7D9:2:11A0000:0:0:0:</channel> <!-- Discovery Home and Health -->
<channel id="HomeandHealth.uk">1:0:1:1840:07d9:0002:011a0000:0:0:0:</channel> <!-- Home and Health -->

OK

But 1) and 2) aren't quite the same, if you look closely, Robinson. One TSid has a leading zero, and one doesn't. Problem is, which one is real, and which one is null?

I don't think 0 at the front matters at all.
To me, 5 and 05 is the same number. Probably the same here.
Would have to ask doglover to confirm.

The leading zeros in service references do not matter. Also capital letters do not matter in service references.

These are the same and indeed a double. But when searching for service references in the channels file by the editor build in searcher you do find the doubles because of the leading zeros.
We try to eliminate all leading zero's because off this (small) problem.

On the good side of it: A double does not really matter.
On the bad side: When you assign a different epg reference to it, you get a mixture of epg for that channel. And these can be difficult to spot when you have one with leading zero's and the other without the zeros.
