ITV2 and Lidl

Scania

I have scaned in ITV1 on my Lidl receiver without any problems. (They must have one ITV1 station per person in Britain.) However, no sign of ITV2 (or ITV4). Is there someone who knows how to get ITV2 on a Lidl receiver?

An automatic scan did the trick for me.

I have done two automatic scans and no luck. Unless it comes up under another name than ITV2?

ITV2 & ITV4 - along with London, Granada, Central West, Anglia East - are on 10758V (22000).
I suspect that this transponder is not yet stored on your Lidl.

I have the porty 2 STB and i had to add afew transponders before the channels showed p your might be different

How do I do a transponder update? Do I have to do an "upgrade software"?

Gargantuan

If it is the porty 2 box , there is a section on the menu that lts you add TP (as they call them) ,should be in the installation section

I use a Fortec Star so expect Lidl has similar software

>>menu
>>installation >>satellite setup
>>edit TP
move down the satellite list until you highlight 28.2E (press select)
move down the list until you highlight Edit TP (press select)
select 'new'
enter the TP details >> 10758 >> 22.000 >>Vertical

See if the transponder (as stated by Jungle Boy) is on the system.

When I did the scan on my Lidl system, it picked up all the transponders first before scanning for the channels.

It also took me a few attempts before I did the scanning process correctly.

Some sets have a "Transponder network scan" option on scan menu. On many Sky stransponders this loads all the transponders to your box.

Jungle Boy's advice worked a dream. Some of the menu items have different names on Lidl, but appart from that not problems. The user-manual shows you what the difference in naming menu items.

Thanks Jungle Boy!
