Seems to be the same SES demo loop but curious why it's popped up

Paramount is edging towards Freesat, it's in hybrid mode right now - still on on the FTA list but does have a reasonably full EPG listing.

Only on a 4k STB or a combi 4k TV, HEVC/H.265 video decoder required. I have them tuned on this Toshiba TV and a Walker also.

Retro Movies has been available for a few weeks now.
13894 V 22000 5/6

mackersdublin

Retro Movies has been on Sky since last year, but is due to launch on Freesat 307 soon

Harry Palmr

Oh I know, its been FTA for ages, hard to imagine it'll give Talking Pictures or even Movies4Men much of a run for their money as they only show stuff which has fallen out of copyright. In fact the whole thing is so low rent it's amazing they can afford/are willing to pay the EPG fees.

Harry Palmr

Retro Movies now on 307 Freesat.

Clitheroekid

The parameters for satellite frequency for Retro Movies is 11497 V 22000 5/6 dnme gave parameters that is impossible to tune in

CNN HD is on the way I think, could be related to that.

No, lost CNN HD temporarily yesterday IIRC, had to change SR from 22000 to 23000 and all returned to normal. CNN SD no problems.

Harry Palmr

Was thinking of Freesat which is SD

On the subject of CNN, it has been breaking up with very bad signal here for the last few days on Sky channel 506. Anyone else having this issue ?

My CNN always breaks up when it’s raining outside or any bit of wind. It’s the only channel it happens to

TopTec

Mine too, happens to 505, CNBC too.


TT

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.

Clitheroekid

Not possible to tune it in on my free to air satellite system

Johnboy1951

CNN HD good here on FTA.

martin6651

Sorted

Clitheroekid

Will try again later

dublinman1990

There is some evangelist channel going up FTA in HD soon. It's called LoveWorld HD.

The frequency for this channel is 11611 23000 H 2/3. The SID for it is 55405.

Also; I want to know what is going on with a channel with the SID 7100. It is still blank on my FTA receiver.

Similar issue with poor reception CNN HD (FTA) Occurred just this week.

Sig quality fine & you can confirm Feq settings etc are good, see atach.

Skew markings read 1 to 5,see attch, assuming these are the degrees.
Gradually rotating from 1 to 5 makes no improvement. thoughts ?

King of Sat reports "Switched standard" on 2019-08-08. ??

fryup

you get signal quality of 83% and it still breaks up? thats odd

what make & model sat receiver have you got?

Amiko Mini combo extra, all other channels stable.

Seems to have occured after freq update 2019-08-08. I see all the traffic here re CNN started on that date.

Interesting . I'l await further input here before deleting and re scanning next week.

Just wondering ...... why is the aspect ratio showing as 4:3 if the channel is HD then should it not show in 16:9?

Gerry Wicklow

Further to the changes that upset Quest HD, Freesports HD and France 24HD
TP changes on 11426 V 29500, 8/9, DVB-S2, QPSK seems to be so they can accommodate S4C HD which is now testing as 52565
(useful for rugby or so I'm told )
Info thanks to Digi man on DS
