    Yeah same here.
    Hopefully RTE/Sky can get this sorted soon with the launch of Astra 2G.

    I have sent an e-mail to RTE and called their switchboard twice voicing my annoyance at not been able to receive RTE1HD on the Sky platform. I recommend other Sky customers do the same...

    Launched last night. Don't know when it goes into actual service though.

    RTÉ and Sky TV have signed a long-term partnership agreement to increase the number of channels and ways in which RTÉ's content can be accessed on Sky's platform in Ireland.

    RTÉ One and RTÉ 2 are already available through Sky here, with the new agreement resulting in more RTÉ channels and services available to Sky customers.

    In the coming months Sky subscribers in Ireland will be able to access a range of RTÉ content through RTÉ Player's availability via Sky on Demand.

    As part of the agreement, RTÉ News Now and RTÉ One + 1 will be added to the Sky platform, with RTÉ One HD becoming available to Sky customers at the same time.

    Commenting on the announcement RTÉ Director General Noel Curran said: "As Ireland's national public service media, RTÉ aims to serve all audiences. We do this through our 25 distinctive services.

    “It has been a key policy initiative for RTÉ in recent years that those services be available and distributed as widely as possible through key partnerships that recognise the value for both parties.

    “We're delighted to have concluded this new partnership with Sky which gives significantly more access to RTÉ services and programming on Sky for audiences in Ireland," Mr Curran added.

    Sorry but that was announced a couple of months ago. We're all wondering when they will actually put RTE 1 HD on the EPG.

    Agreed, it's turning out to be one of the longest " watched kettles boiling" ever. The announcement was made on Sept 4 and the word used for the launch of RTE 1 HD etc was " soon", followed by the RTE Player " later. If this is soon, I would hate to see what their idea of later is !

    Hi Jonathan,

    RTE 1 HD will become available on the Sky platform in the future, but as yet no date has been confirmed.
    Please keep an eye on the Sky website.It will also be widely advertised when the time comes.

    Kind Regards,

    I may be corrected on this but as far as I can remember when the announcement was made it stated that RTE would have to update it's technology or something on that line before RTE ONE HD and the RTE Player were added. So maybe maybe RTE are in the process of updating whatever technology needs updating.

    Just hoping RTE will launch all the remaining digital radio services which will complete the job, plenty of room from 0160 to 0168.

    First I have heard of that and it's not mentioned on the article on RTE Website.

    RTE1HD may not launch on SKY until late spring of 2016 due to lack of transponder space, all current transponders are booked in advanced by other operators, told this by my retail satellite dealer. I hope he's talking bull.

    Sky had no problem finding transponder space for the HD versions of their channels showing Irish adverts. It's not as if Sky/RTE did not see this coming, right? :)
