I've been looking at the LJ Sport site for the Champions League listings tomorrow night (Tuesday) and it lists DSF as having ALL tomorrow nights matches on live "FTA(simulcast)" as it puts it.
Could someone explain what is meant by this "Simulcast". Is this a kind of "press red button for Match Choice" like Sky thingy or does it mean something else.
If so then I presume I won't be able to access all matches with a digibox and the excellent Other Channels menu or is there a way around this?
Please help.
Thanks in advance.

Is it any good?
One is analouge and one is digital
Ah right ok
Both the analogue and the digital versions will show the same content.
On their website is stated that DSF will show all 5 matches in a conference broadcast. I guess they don't have the rights to show a single match in full...
From their website:
Champions TV LIVE
Champions TV präsentiert am Dienstag alle Abend-Partien des 5. Champions League-Spiel-
tages in einer Konferenzschaltung. Hauptaugen-
merk liegt dabei auf der Partie des Hamburger SV bei Arsenal London. Sportliche Brisanz bergen außerdem die Duelle um die ersten bei-
den Plätze in den Gruppen E und F: Real Mad-
rid muss sich im Santiago Bernabeu gegen Olympique Lyon behaupten (Gruppe E) und Manchester United steht im Celtic Park gegen Glasgow unter Druck (Gruppe F).
That's because the games are on Premiere, who also happen to do a goals service!
There seems to be a lot of hand me downs like this from Premiere. From a motor racing perspective for instance they have the support series as highlights on Saturday/Sunday evenings on race weekends whereas Premiere show the races live and in full. They also used to show the F1 Practice sessions later on in the day seperate to RTLs coverage. Are DSF owned partly by Premiere?
This is where Premiere on DSF came from.
