There is talk on another thread of being able to see something.
Frequency - 10.778 Polarisation - V Symbol Rate - 22.0 FEC - 5/6 Then pick ETV5. I can't really tell any difference in BBC1 pic and 'test' pic, but then I'm watching the 19" TV in dining room. Should be me apologising I think.

Sky have confirmed today (see Sky Channels thread in the Sky section) that Sky Atlantic (SD) will be on channel 108 from early 2011 when it launches.
Living will be renamed Sky Living and move to channel 107 at the same time (3 January possibly when Channel 1 and Bravo are supposed to be closing). Sky 1 will stay at 106. So 106, 107 and 108 will be Sky 1. Sky Living and Sky Atlantic in a power position of its three key entertainment channels. All will have HD versions, of course, but no numbers yet know (likely to be in the 170s around Sky 1 HD I guess). Where Sky 2 and 3 will go is not clear (but 121 will be freed up by the end of Channel 1). |

BBC One HD seems to be testing now. (?)
It has BBC One EPG data, but is showing the BBC HD preview loop. |

Looks like we have the start of testing for ITV3HD and ITV4HD
Txp# 3 11.758 H DVB-S2 MPEG4 HD On this transponder 3933 and 3934 are currently both showing test cards with 3933 having ITV3 EPG and 3934 having ITV4 EPG. If you add this to the fact that ITV2HD is on same Transponder which tested using name 3932 they can't be anything else. |

And now both, ITV3 HD and ITV4 HD have no sound anymore (due to switching from MPEG to AC3 Audio).
But I'm pretty sure they will sort that out until November 15th. Having said that ... I haven't seen ANYTHING on ITV3 HD in HD yet, while ITV4 HD has had several HD test-programmes on it. Greets Zodac |
