  If they are changing them over I wonder if they are slowly screwing the SD quality to death so they can eventually justify removing them?

  When did this happen? I know Sky's entertainment channels have been 544x576 for years but last time I checked, Sky Sports SD was 704x576...not any more, it seems.
  
  EDIT: Hmm, I just checked 4 different satellite streams and 3 of them are 704x576. I just happened to pick the 544x576 one I guess. I wonder why they aren't all the same though...

  
  Which one/s are 544 x 576i?

  I think you might be right on that. Kill them off one by one over time and reduce the quality of the others as they go along.

  Not sure since I've now dumped that stream from my EPG. I'm now using this stream, which has UK adverts and is 704x576:
  
  12110 H, 27500, 2/3, SID: 4214
  
  I guess I'm gonna have to go through Sky Sports 2-5 too and check they're all correct.
