I tried to manual scan them but until I used 8PSK as well as the published 2/3 FEC I couldn't bring them in (DVB-S2 also need to be selected). The P+ defaults to QPSK and 3/4 FEC. Only 3 of the channels aren't demos ATM, and some are using 720(/50 AFAIK)p not 1980i, but Arte HD was running the colour Avengers series which has been processed to remove frame jitter and also interpolated 50p frames (definitely not 25p) and looks surprisingly sharp in the studio footage. The only drawback is the handheld shots, which prior to steadycam on a 28" or smaller screen, now look noticeably shaky on a 40".

There's also Planet of the Apes TV series which looks sharp but has no frame jitter correction and is difficult viewing for that reason.
