Locked Channel

[cyrowth]

I have an X5 with all the latest updates.  A few days ago, my wife's favorite channel started asking for a password to unlock it before it will display.  Also, a new entry list right under Favorites appeared labeld Locked Channels which contains 1 channel (wife's favorite).  The channel plays fine in TiviMate, so I assume this is a Buzz constraint -- maybe a parental control.  We have never setup any parental controls as a 2 adult household, so have no known password to unlock it.  

Is there a default P/W in case something was done inadvertently to lock the channel ?  Is there any way to remove the lock on this 1 channel without knowing the password ?  Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you that worked for me also. Good thing it was my discovery channel and it was locked for long time till I finally looked it up and found your answer. Thank you

Thanks.  The 0000 code works great!

Glad it worked for you...   But you didn't need to bump a 6 month old thread

Is there a way to change the default PW from 0000 to my own defined code?
