My System: Sky UK. FTA analogue & digital satellite from 5 fixed dishes (5E/7E/9E/13E/16E /19E/23E/28E) Pace MSS100, Echostar IP3000VA, Technomate TM-1000D, Dreambox 7020S  The last noble sat warrior to fly the olden flag of Analogue |
Can someone with a HDTV box scan 10847V and see if there is a second BBC HD transmission there? Ive just pulled down a new test tagged as "6945" which appears to be a copy of the BBC HD service at the moment. The pids appear to be the same, although it doesnt have any epg info on it unlike BBC HD. (My Technomate puts the HDTV transmission in the radio section and sets up the audio and programme pids, although it doesnt like the video pids and sets them at zero....  ) | ||

You're right. I've just scanned 10847V, and there is a channel, "6945", that is showing the same program that BBC HD is transmitting, but with no EPG. It is also in HD (1080i) Ervil | |||

MacBook and that's that. | Why would BBC HD launch a second channel when the first hardly can fill 3 hours of programming a night?
