    Is anyone having trouble tuning in these on a standard SkyHD box? If I tune these channels in on Other Channels I get a no signal received message. However the versions of France 24HD and Quest HD on the EPG are perfect. I've also checked the signal strength/quality of this transponder in the installer menu and it's pretty good. So have Sky found some way to block HD FTA services to other channels? I remember the same problem with BBC Wales HD as well.

    Actually went back and had another go at those channels again today and they worked this time so must've been operator error I expect :D

    CNN HD is unwatchable here all the time now regardless of the weather, I never really noticed an issue with it before when it was raining.

    Just to update, CNN HD now working again, I didn't adjust the LNB or make any changes.

    True Movies Christmas has been running for years, Sony are running it for the last time hopefully before it turns into Sony Movies Classics in January

    From what I can tell here, there are no new channels, just renaming of existing channels.

    True Ent      -> Sony Channel
    True Ent+1    -> Sony Channel+1
    True Movies   -> Sony Christmas
    True Movies+1 -> Sony Xmas+1
    


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,882 ✭✭✭kooga


    i think the new line up is as follows

    sony movie channel - sony movies
    movies 4 men - sony action
    true movies - sony movies christmas
    true entertainment - sony channel

    Ideal World at least has not (yet?) replaced the SD channel.
    Both are broadcasting presently.

    Create & Craft in similar situation.

    11597; 11671 approx. (unsure of exact frequency atm)

    I wish our Saorview SD channels were as good as those SD channels for resolution/picture!

    Can anyone tell me if it is possible to retune Quest on a Triax TSC 114 combi box. Quest had been tuned in but the signal disappeared. The box is currently only receiving signal from the default Astra transmitter.
    I am not great at tuning the box and would appreciate a step by step guide.

    Seems Yourtv is coming off the Sky EPG .... not sure about Freesat ..... IF I heard correctly ..... was in background so uncertain if I heard correctly.

    Can anyone confirm ..... or tell me I was dreaming?


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,542 ✭✭✭Gerry Wicklow


    YourTV is closing.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,999 ✭✭✭✭Johnboy1951


    YourTV is closing.

    Thanks, so I was not dreaming, although I did not get the full story.

    That was a popular channel in this household!

    Pity it is gone behind a paywall. :(

    On a separate note has travel channel +1 disappeared from free to air? It seems to be replaced by quest. I can’t find any info online

    Travel channel + 1 is being replaced by Quest with Irish advertising.
