Im checking out the wimbledown tennis on the bbc, and the following thought came to my mind.

Why cant i get the bbc interactive service on my digital satellit receiver ?

Is it only available on sky and freeview receivers or am i missing something on my humax software or user instructions ?

Interactive only works with Freeview or S*y boxes.

The channels are available but you will have to find them and save as a bouquet.
 
ah so it is posseeble, do you have knowlegde of getting the bouquet ?
 
You have to check the BBC FTA channels on 28.2 and list them in a new bouquet - you do all the work I'm afraid.

The interactive service is transmitted but not as a bouquet - i was suggesting the easiest way for you was to add them then you can access them when you want.

Hopefully some kind person will list the frequencies.
 
How many channels do you reckon? 10, 12 possibly.
 
Well guys, ive checked out 28.2 satellite listings on lyngsat for frequencies and i noticed bbci 1 - 7 at 12441v 27500 2/3 and bbci 8 and 9 at 10847v 22000 5/6

But if i search out those frequencies, those interactive channels are not coming up ??

Any further thoughts on this one - has anyone got the bbc interactive channels on a ci sat receiver

Think they only transmit when an interactive service is available.

Don't think that's all the time.

You could check if a friend has Freeview or S*y.
 
Thers half a dozen on 12441. They should be running all the time - they run test loops when they are off air.
 
When i did a search the other day, i had expected to get bbci1 to 7 but they were not there and i just ignored the other channels.

But trying again tonight, i notice there are 7 channels called DEV-STRM-0 to 6 so i wonder if this is the 7 bbci channels

at this moment there is a signal but im getting the "service is not running or scrambled" jivetalk

I will revisit them tomorrow during wimbledown and see what shows

Thats them. They arent labelled BBCi 1 -8
 
Hi, wimbledon has started today, but all of these dev channels are still blank ?

There must be an explanation somewhere :)

any further possibilities ?

Perhaps those streams are on the Astra 2D interactive service.
 
Hi analogue, when you say they are on the astra 2d, what does that mean ?

We know that they are available on the sky bsb receivers from 28.2 satellite and also on the independent freeview receivers in uk from a roof aerial.

The question is, are they available on the "non-sky bsb satellite receivers" via 28.2 satellite and if so , How ? and if not , Why ?

Appreciate your continued assistance in this matter, and it will be great to get to the bottom of this puzzle:)

Astra 2d is at 28.2 but the area covered by that satellite (footprint) is focused over the UK. The others generally cover more of Europe.

If you are not in the UK you may have problems receiving some channels.
 
I'll have a look when I get home and find out which frequencies the tennis is on (assuming it hasnt been rained off).:D
 
OK definitive answer - Ive just been watching tennis on half a dozen channels on 12441V 27500 2/3. Thers one match on 10847V 22000 5/6.
 
Hi analogue, Was that on the dev channels ? , if not then where ?

If so, i dont understand why they did not operate for me, but i will try again tomorrow. What message do you get on them after wimbledown has finished?

Yes those were on the Dev channels. When they are off air they run a video and audio loop 24-7. If you cant see them there is something wrong with your system.
 
Analogue, Ive checked out these dev channels again (same frequencies etc as you), and i just get the program is not being transmetted or is scrambled message ?

There is definetly a top signal from the channels but no picture or sound ?
I get all the bbc other channels from 28.2 satellite perfectly.

What can be my problem here ?
 
Hi to all,

I was having the same problem with my PanaBox. So I bought a cheap FTA box, which receives all these Streams without any problem.
