Further update, its now looking likely ITV 4 WILL launch on Tuesday - on 136 (which means M&M is being sacrificed -->> permanently??)

Things are still subject to change though.

All in all its still a complete bl**dy shambles.

Another update..... This email came from the duty office at ITV and is on DS:

Dear ******
Thank you for contacting the ITV Duty Office.

ITV4 will appear on channel 136 (Men & Motors) for one night only on 1 November. M&M will be back on 2 November, as advertised.

From 7 November, ITV4 will be available on digital satellite channel 120.

Kind regards,

Duty Officer



This must be because of the football coverage....

Does anybody else share the feeling that tomorrow ITV4 will not appear on 12422H (although channel 136 is linked to this frequency) ?

I reckon theres a very good chance ITV4 will appear there tomorrow. ITV will probably just switch the programming stream over from M&M to ITV 4. This saves all the hassle of getting the epg data stream remapped for a one night event, seeing as M&M will be back on Wednesday

Looks like IM correct - the programming for tomorroww night is listed as "ITV4 on Men & Motors" :D

All this hassle for some unimportant sports event.

Take 2-1 to Chelsea. Think the Unreliable pool will slip up though.

Am I the only person who cant see what all the fuss is about. Had a quick look at "ITV 4 on M&M" when I got back from the pub and its got a soddin international footy match on. B-O-R-I-N-G. And its got black "curtains" down each side.
Jeez - for that they could have happily held the launch back a week and we wouldnt have missed anything.
Get the ancient sci fi on!!!

the reason it was 4:3 is cos the feed comes from the local tv company (rapid vienna) and they dont use 16:9 :-beer
