I didn't hear anything about the changes, but my Humax Foxsat-HDR automatically updates at about 3am provided that it is left in standby. (Much more convenient than periodically having to retune Freeview kit!).
I've checked the Freesat Channel List and they are all still in the range 101 - 999 so no 4 digit channel numbers (unless I change to non-Freesat mode where the channels are still numbered 5001 - 5620.)
Using the Freesat EPG I've had no problems watching and recording programmes during and after the transponder changes.
