I'm only getting audio on ITV HD tried a manual scan with the following
Frequency - 11.427
Polarisation - H
symbol rate - 2/3
FEC - 27500

Anyone got this working in Windows Media Centre?

ITV HD doesn't work in Media Centre 7 without using a registry hack to enable MHEG. (Red Button Material)

When you enable this hack tuning to BBC HD, then switching straight to ITV HD enabled the channel.

Then you had to reverse the hack, when not viewing ITV HD.

I don't use this method now as i just use DVB Viewer to watch ITV HD but there may be more friendly methods about now of which someone will pop in and explain what they are.

Although it was a bit messy, it did work.


I think this is the description of what i done a while back truckspin.

Thanks Snoods that worked but found you have to go to BBC HD everytime before going to ITV HD, a bit of a pain but at least I can now see ITV HD Logo.

Just a quick question, would you be able to watch ITV HD if you used DVBviewer to view, rather than the windows media centre? Anyone with any experience?

Yes, there's no problem viewing and recording ITV HD with DVB Viewer mikey, once you tell DVB Viewer it's not a radio channel and insert the video PID.
