according to sky there are a total of 21 channels on hd less the pay extra channels sky sports and movie kids etc.
By the end of 2010 there will be 50 channels. My worry is thyat they wil up the charge by christmas. In september my own charges will go up to £22 plus £10 for HD .so it does not take an expert to work out that the price will increase on the basic HD channels. But it cannot go up too much as sky is trying to push the new HD T1 box and 3D box. So reckon the price will increase to around £15 for the box for new subscribers after 1st jan and £12 for pre 1st jan subscribers. I am waiting for my connection ! I would advise anyone to act now as installation is only 4 days otherwise once the kids go back and go towards christmas its likely to be at least 7/10 days. i predict ! eurosport new HD 2 channel in 2011 sky news HD2 2011 to include local news as well as uk news. |

Any word on if/when Flim4HD will come to Sky? How long did Sky have E4HD exclusive before Virgin got the channel, maybe that will be a guide.

I cannot imagine what incentive Sky have to take on a movie channel that would be offered to non movie subscribers as it might lose them customers.
If Film 4 HD arrives I suspect Sky might well feel it a great idea that it will only be given to movie subscribers....

Landscape HD is being planned, but still some way off, and I certainly wouldn't say definitely going to happen.
Sounds a bit like a Luxe HD type non-event of a channel from what I can tell. |

Landscape in HD would be a treat - if it is like the old style channel setting to various moods of instrumental music appropriate stunning landscape images.
That used to be an occasional time out that could be enjoyed by many early satellite viewers. |

Sky Real Lives HD was broadcasting from transponder 11798 H. That stream has been relabelled as 3866 and now has EPG listings for Living HD.

Thanks for the updates with Living HD I said this would happen and probably others thought the same.
Guessing it may get the same EPG Number of SKY Real Lives HD. |

You cannot get it on a Sky HD box as this does not allow manual tuning of 29,500 - which HD channels use.It seems to be done that way to block access to these channel tests in the immediate run up to launch.
Only on a fully tunable multisat HD box - where a scan on the frequency brings it up as channel 3866 as stated above. Or it did when I tried it. |

Called up to cancel / get a discount earlier and the call centre person said that a kids HD channel was starting soon - they weren't sure if it was Disney or nickelodeon so I think we can safely assume it's nickelodeon.

Ginx TV CEO told Eurogamer that there's a chance it could be in HD from launch in November.
