ITV Player working on Humax Freesat HDR

    Saw a discussion on digitalspy saying that itv player is now on channel 903 on freesat. Turns out it's currently working in Dublin on my Humax - no geolocking.

    I can't get it from a browser on the same Eircom DSL connection ("Sorry the video could not be found"). So I wonder, have they forgotten to geolock the video titles that are in the format that the Humax requests, or they are using the fact that it's a freesat box as a method of keeping content restricted to the UK? Hopefully it's the latter and not a mistake.

    Time to fire up wireshark and try and see whats happening.

    Apologies if this is already posted elsewhere.

    How did you get it to come in, btw? I did a retune on my Humax Foxsat HD box but I don't get channel 903 in my list of channels. Does the box have to be set to a UK postcode I'm wondering? Mine is set to N. Ireland...
