ok on the Mvision HD200 (and combo), just add these params into transponder edit.

'Menu/Satellite Search'....select Astra 2A-D/red button (TP Edit)/select transponder 11428/blue button (PID add)....fill in the values:-

Service ID = 2326
Video PID = 3401
Audio PID = 3402
PCR PID = 2326
CAS = On
HD Video = On
AC3 Audio = On

Then, remote control 'OK' on the line 'PID add'.

Exit.

These values work for myself.

********************************* ***************

Other working values have been entered as :-

Service ID = 0510
Video PID = 3401
Audio PID = 3402
PCR PID = 2326
CAS = On
HD Video = On
AC3 Audio = On

Then, remote control 'OK' on the line 'PID add'.

Exit.

Confirm when there IS a broadcast taking place as ITV does not always display the 'not available right now' logo, and you get various to no signal or scrampled channel.

i bought a fortecstar passion HD +. ITV HD is tuned in, but i get a screen from ITV saying ?ITV HD THIS SERVICE IS CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE

Also when i plug in an external USB 2.5'' HDD, it remains on even if the box is left on standby. Is this normal?

many thanks in advance!

Yes - ITV HD only transmits a couple of hours a week!

Any help with an AB IP box 9000hd?

**rolfw** · 15-02-2009

Just answered you on the other post Mike, as your box is similar to the CubeRevo.

Why oh why did ITV need to make it so difficult, I thought the freesat licence was to be free to air not "free" to those who shelled out cash to a select few retailers/manufacturers. It doesn't seem any more free than the Sly offering unless it's open to us all.

Thanks for zip file Jem, have downloaded to Humax and Itv HD channel ok!
My problem is using motorised dish and have to re-load my settings when viewing other satelites.
Have tried to copy and paste Itv hd settings, but when pasted the transponder data filed is blank.
Have also copied BBC HD channel and ammended accordingly, but just shows blank screen with no HD logo.
Any idea why I cannot copy to my listings file or even copy to new file?

Thanks in advance

Hi Sureyblue

I expect my method should work for a motorised list but if you look at Llews post 141 on thread ITV HD Humax HDCI-2000 he's posted a motorised list based on my method originaly.

Good luck
Jem

surreyblue · 27-04-2009

Is ITV HD available on Fortec Star Innovation ? I can only get a message saying 'Itv HD is currently not available'

It only broadcasts a few hours per week, showing the message you see for the rest of the time.

See the (limited!) schedule here:

Hi all,
Just got a Humax Foxsat HD receiver.
Can anyone help me get ITV HD (& channel 4 etc).
At the moment it only finds BBC HD.

Does the scan have to be done in Freesat or Manual mode?

Greateful for any help provided

Thanks!

A link is listed in the first post in this thread.

I suspect your question has arisen because you can't see a Channel called ITV HD in your Freesat list: But don't worry as ITV HD does not appear on the EPG as it is a part time Channel intended to be accessed via the Red Button when prompted on screen.

If you read the linked Thread, it gives details of how you might find it separately, but that actually gains you nothing as the Foxsat will notify you when an ITV Prog can be viewed in HD.

As for Channel 4, if you mean Channel 4 HD specifically, then this is not a Freesat Channel yet (and no-one knows when it will be). It is currently Encrypted and Free To View (ie not Free To Air) on Sky.

Here is the ITV (and BBC) HD schedule

ITV picture just gone with video pid 3401.
Anyone else?

**developers** · 19-09-2009

I've still got the message 'Itv HD is currently not available' on the Topfield box. You don't say what box your using - might help find other members with same problem?
I assume you've got a blank screen not the message we all have to see whenever they decide to switch off the HD! They are a bit blunt, it just dissappears.
