New FTA Channels

    I noticed an addition to the FTA listing some days ago, particularly these

    True Crime 11.386 H 27500 2/3 DVB-S
    True Crime+1 11.306 V 27500 2/3 DVB-S

    I have been unable to see those two channels so am asking if others do receive them which would imply I need to do some searching here.

    All I need to know is if others now receive those channels.

    Thanks.

    EDIT:

    Found
    True Crime +1 as 53305 ..... seems the name is not mapping at present.

    True crime may show as 53700 on 11386 H 27500
    NOTE: I was told the FEC was 5/6 on both frequencies above.

    2/3 found them for me.

    @ Gerry Wicklow ...... yes I got True Crime on 53700

    Thank to all ........ got it sorted ...... had some sort of mix-up with the two horror channels which confused things for a while.

    All good now. :D

    The usually reliable Lyngsat says 5/6. It seems to be a trend that TPs are changing from 2/3 to 5/6. It's possibly because of the stronger signals now available. Those with more techie know-how than me might confirm this.

    Judge Judy type programming if what's seen on the tests is accurate.

    I seem to have lost the following two channels which are still listed in the thread above

    >Movies 11.568 V 22000 5/6 DVB-S
    >Movies+1 11.479 H 22000 5/6 DVB-S

    Is this general or just me?

    They've been pulled in favour of True crime &+1 even though they were still advertising their movie line-up for Easter until the last moment :confused:

    Thanks for the confirmation ;)

    True Crime doesn't make up for that loss :(

    Is Movies Mix still going on Freeview, they are the same channel in all but name.

    The channel (on the website at least) is listed now as Sony Movie Mix. I think they are merging some of their channels. Why they don't just call it Sony Movies is strange though, why add Mix as if it matters?
