The 3 channels that were previously transmitting FTA hardcore on Hispasat have now replaced their material with topless-only and pixellated - they are now softer than ITV(Cyfra+) on Hotbird. German satellite news site Sat-Erotik.de is reporting the reason to be a new law that came into force in...

Lee, Yes, just the bitrate at the instant of measurement, but if you total them all up, there is a net increase across the 8 channels. 9.86Mbit on 21 Dec 09, but only 8.58Mbit on 09 Dec 09. They seem to have 'borrowed' this from the two FTA ad channels, which are listed as having very low...

Hi cat, does this happen on the FTA channels called FREE THEME-X-INFO- or THEME X-FTA-INFO too, or just the scrambled ones ?

no , I meant SCT. they definitely haven't. Try this experiment - wait until the end of a movie and they start to transmit a static logo picture. Now switch away and back to that channel and see whether it opens or not. I bet you find that it doesn't open for ages. My guess is that they have...

Ok, it's definitely not a Viaccess problem. The channels called 'SV-THEME X-INF' that used to be encrypted SV movie channels are now broadcasting free-to-air. I still have exactly the same problem with every FTA channel, except the one that used to be SV mature content - i.e. the MuxTV ones are screwed...

I'm no expert either. I just try to match up the behaviour I'm seeing with the descriptions of how MPEG-2 works. As an example; you can save bandwidth by not transmitting a full frame as often. Instead, you replace it with more frames that just describe changes instead of the actual full...

I've just had a quick riffle through my paperwork and all I can find is the fact that my UltraBlueTV sub switched from D2MAC to DVB in 2000. I'm pretty sure I tried the SV 2-channel offering shortly after that - which would be 2001.
