I don't suppose anyone may have spotted this lurking on either 0.8w or 4.9E today or even later tonight?

For those unaware of what it is, it's a popular Swedish song festival where the winner represents the country at Eurovision. Funnily enough over there, this is more popular than Eurovision itself. Tomorrow is the final but tonight it's the dress rehearsal where the international juries vote in (just like the song contest). In the past I believe the feed has been active for this rehearsal and it had been seen on 4.8E or 0.8W.

My dish may be too small to see it so I thought I'd ask in case some of the feed hunters here may have picked it up :)
 
No feed today. Their regular frequency is busy with Sweden floorball. Accroding a provider satellite feed is a back up only so i dont expect any rehearsal. Feed usually starts half hours before show starts and shows test card, people in hall and stage with some dj.
You can check right now 4.9e 12592V7400 nordic beam and check how strong signal is. tomorrow it will be 7200 sr.

It´s on both sats but so far only encrypted
 
Thanks both. I watched through SVT 1 on 1w in the end. A great final but quite an anti climax when it came down to voting (and I'm still not sure how I feel about the winning song)
 
That time of year again, the final begins tonight at 19:00 GMT. I don't suppose anyone has found this lurking anywhere? My box doesnt have a blind scan which is annoying so I'm unable to do a thorough hunt for it myself.
 
I can't watch it from any satellite because the footprints are not covering my location.
It is possible to watch it using the SVT Player but it says only in Sweden, as it is geo restricted.

I will let you know if I find the feed for the Melodifestivalen now checking 1 west.
 
All I have found so far is Norwegian Football on Astra 4A @ 4.8 east 12515 V 7200 S2 HD & MET Opera on 1 west.

I will have another look later for you.
 
Last year and a year before there were feeds for all shows except final ones at 4.9e but this year i have not seen any... it was usually up for about half of hour before show starts and i checked this sat 15 min ago and there is no such feed ...It was uplinked by Mobile Links before but this year its facebook page has no sign of Melodifestivalen related news.
 
This might help, streaming fine here

Maybe this music feed from Sweden will interest you ?

Such a shame they no longer have feeds for this, with SVT 1 being encrypted on 1W. I can thankfully still get it on 4.9E in SD using emulator but nothing beats watching it in full HD.

This year's edition starts again tonight at 20:00 CET.
