    Does anyone know what time this change is happening at?

    According to the Freesat Info channel (999 on Freesat epg), it's changing in a few hours - tomorrow morning between 2 am and 5.30 am

    All changed over.

    BBC One HD still working for me from Other Channels


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,818 ✭✭✭Minstrel27


    I would make sure to never delete it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 484 ✭✭DigiDec


    It seems to be still working but you can't add it to a new box or if it gets deleted.

    Makes sense! Have instructed the parents not to delete it

    Had BBC HD & BBC One HD tuned and working previously but as of this mornin there's no signal.
    Odd, as I thought the Argus box was DVB-S2 compatible


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,818 ✭✭✭Minstrel27


    Retune them. I had to do this with a Technomate box. All was working fine after this.

    On the Mvision Combo you need to edit / add the transponder, then do a scan on your new transponder.

    Use the values from here: http://en.kingofsat.net/pos-28.2E.php

    10847
    V
    23000
    DVB-S2 QPSK
    8/9

    All good on UPC too, although this may not be the right place to mention it

    Any changes to the BBC transmission on satellite will have no effect on UPC viewers.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,534 ✭✭✭highdef


    Yeah but I'm sure that they had to make changes to their receivers. I meant that they had made whatever changes were needed to continue to receive the channels.

    thank you it works for me on my mvision 300 combo


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 484 ✭✭DigiDec


    My BBC HD on 143 is fine and I still have BBC One HD working in my Other Channels, reboot your box and see if this corrects the problem.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 380 ✭✭Strawberry HillBilly


    Reboot complete - No Joy - how could SKY be caught out like this ???

    It's the BeeB's fault. Even though the channels have a whole set of new variables, they have left the channel SID's the same. So your box is looking for SID 6940 BBC HD - it can find it but it's working off the old set of parameters & there's nothing there for it to find. If BBC change the SID's the box will then recognise them as new channels with different parameters from the old ones.

    I Think;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,748 ✭✭✭bennyx_o


    I've checked the other HD box we have and BBC HD or BBC One HD both say no satellite signal being received. Box is an older Thompson box I believe, so maybe that has something to do with it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 484 ✭✭DigiDec


    Mmm, yes, this might have something to do with it alright, my 2 Amstards DRX890's are working OK with both BBC HD on ch 143 and BBC One HD in other channels.

    I have a Thomson box also with the same problems. I read over on DS that people with Thomson boxes were having them replaced for free by SKY beause they werent useable with Anytime +.

    Over here it looks like SKY have no clue and I cant see us getting a replacement or a fix.

    Thanks, both channels had been tuned in with a Symbol Rate of 22000.
    Re-tuning with the above 23000 worked perfectly.

    It's a thompson hd box.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,818 ✭✭✭Minstrel27


    Does Channel 4 HD work on these boxes when using the default EPG?
