I have searched the forums and not seen anything to help me concerning not being able to receive ITV HD anymore, I lost the signal some time ago and was going to realign my dish but my signal strength is around 90% and Quality 100% but both disappear when ITV HD is selected, any idea's most welcome.

What Transponder are you looking for it on? Which variant (Region)??

It's likely it has moved to a different TP from the one you have stored, or perhaps the Symbol Rate has changed.

The region is East Midlands, I did just get a heavily pixelated picture for a few seconds before getting the "no signal" screen again.

Not sure how to check the TP and Symbol Rate on my Humax HDR1000S?

Shouldn't be too troublesome ..... on my first generation Foxsat HDR you press the Opt+ key.

However, the 03.00 daily automatic housekeeping should have dealt with any parameter changes.

Also, as you get a sniff, it probably comes back to alignment being slightly off.

I imagine in Luxembourg your dish is big enough, especially as it used to work.

Try changing the lnb - especially if its been a long hot summer in Luxembourg - the local oscillators can get cooked which throws the lock off.

Yes good call, I was also going to upgrade all the F-connectors and get a crimping tool and connectors which should be better then the screw on type that I currently have.

I have just done a factory reset and selected a London region postcode and I now have ITV HD back, so some problem connected with selecting a East Midlands post code it would seem.

Yes, Countries - but not Regions. Watching BBC 1 HD towards the end of major News bulletins when they switch to "the News wherever you're watching" is infuriating .... for years we've been faced with a notice on a strident red background telling us they can't be *rsed to marshall their resources and join the 21st Century.
