Eurobird 1 can be received with 2.3 dish or maybe smaller
If you use a freesat box to receive this channel i believe the epg is on Astra 2d so you need your big dish to get this.Although you can view this channel with other receivers such as Technomate 6900 without epg

You have to remember that quite a few of the Freesat channels are broadcasting of Astra 2D (including the Freesat version of C4) so whilst the epg may be available you may well find many of the channels arent! You still need those monster dishes for Freesat if you want the full channel line up

ITV HD is at present only available on Freesat boxes via the red button. It is almost certainly the same as BBCi, which needs to be receiving a BBC channel on Astra 2D to access the menu, even though the interactive stream is on 2A south and easy to receive.
At present the only receiver that can directly access the ITV HD stream on Eurobird is the FortecStar Passion HD.

There are several HD receivers which can receive the ITV HD channel, although they do need a certain amount of setting changes. See the sticky thread at the top of the FREESAT section.

Darkbox 2008 HD with latest software also ITVHD no problem.

I think Snap is correct though, without being on ITV first the red button will not work when using a freesat box.

It was a patch done by the suppliers I got the box from. All I know is that the audio pid is correct as shown on lyngsat etc but something about it being a 5 digit code in disguise.

Alright Trig, hows it going?

Even if they do pull the ITV SD on Astra 2B, you will still be OK for ITV HD then with Darkbox yeah:D

Thats what I´m hoping. At present not much on the channel except footy (which is great) not even the F1 yesterday. But I suppose it will improve in time.

Same old same old here. Starting to get busier though.

Remember its HD. What box you trying it on?

Its Eurobird Fixed beam can you get anything else off this bird. Look on lyngsat

But I think we get the fixed and you get S1 beam
