Philips 42" Plasma TV Problem

Hello, first post and seems like a great forum.   So we all know that our TV's have to be on a certain channel in order to watch our digital cable or direct tv etc.  So for me it was channel 4, well this morning, on channel 4 is said "Not Available" for some reason.  Not having this problem before, I checked  AV2 which is the DVD channel and that was working.  So I decided to get the remote for the TV, press Menu, and under Installation I chose "Autoprogram"  And I started that, took about 15 minutes, and I went again to now check channel 3 and 4 and it didn't work.   Then when I went to check all Channels, the AV2 was still my DVD player and I was pleasantly suprised to see that on AV1 was my comcast cable. 

So im a happy camper now, but this will probably happen again in the future and who knows if just re-doing the autoprogram will fix it and cable will end up on another channel.  I guess what I am trying to say is, is what I did the only way to fix this problem, or why does this happen and what should I do in future or to get it back on Channel 4.  

Thanks and I hope I explained this well
