    I'm having a little difficulty understanding some aspects of your post, so here's what I assumed

    I assume you mean dual input setup, on my Sony TiVo this translates to the option in Guided Setup called "I have two sources"

    You did not mention which postcode, So I have used 02112 as it's the only one that has both sources.

    I'm assuming that 'Cable' is the 'Antenna' input on my TiVo, these channels do show up when using 02112

    When using 02112 both sets of channels show up in the Guided Setup, So, Using the standard TiVo interface, I have de-selected the channels duplicated on FV from what the Sony TiVo calls the input1 channels (Antenna)

    I did in fact select Freeview as the provider for my input2 (A/V)

    I'm not exactly sure what you're trying to tell me here, possibly referring to the 02110 headend?

    I am using the 3.0 image (rel 1.6.2) on a Sony SVR-2000

    Luck does not appear to be with me on this one, after performing this, I have the FV channels, but the only channels with Guide Data are the ones on input 1 (antenna) the FV channels remain Guide Data-less.

    After performing the above I also did a "Clear Guide Data & todo list", then forced a daily call just be sure.
