it actually listed as Racing UK on my 5400 CI + - if you press menu/edit channels/edit Pids you can manually change the pids - hope this helps davem..

Edit PIDs does not appear under my menu for edit channels on the 5100CI

Don't know but on my 1500ci it's the same option as to rename the channels.

Cannot get it on my 5100CI is there a menu I haven't found yet to alter PIDs or enter manually.?

Working fine however on my Technomate TM9100 and Targa TSR 5200.

Installation->Satellite Setup-
|
Scan -> Advanced Scan

Then select the satellite and you'll get 7 entries.
Freq
SR
Polarity
Channel Name
Video PID
Audio PID
PCR PID

Put ALL of them in:


11584
27500
Horizontal
Racing World
2327
2328
2327

If you don't put everything, it won't see it. Make sure the Channel Name is capitalized correctly.

Racing UK is a SEPARATE CHANNEL... don't get the 2 confused.

Currently showing Rangers v Partick Thistle with a Setanta DOG over the BBC Sport DOG. I think this is Setanta US but haven't seen ads yet.

Do you really have to be that specific for that STB? On the SL65, I just named it "SETANTA", and it works fine.

put all these details into my Fortec Passion, finds a channel but black screen.
Is there anything to see, except when covering a sport?

Nothing showing at present, some times you will see colour bar test screen with Setanta PPV2 on when nothing else showing. Its best to keep an eye on Snoods' thread in the freesat subforum as he usually informs us when something is on.

Sorry, they came up as N_TV and I didn't realise!

But I am getting the Discovery channels as 'scrambled'. Is there some other setting I should set?

This may have been mentioned before, as it's been FTA as long as I've had a digital receiver, and has probably always been FTA.

12169 H 27500

It's DOG looks like it says "BOYAH". They often show some interesting documentaries, most often in English language with Greek subtitles (late afternoon>evenings).

Online schedule can be found here (probably 2 hours ahead of GMT):
