    I was just looking at the most recent channels added to free to air and FoTV was just added. Does anyone know what this channel is? And what it shows? There isn't much information about it.

    FoTV channel on SKY channel 237 is part of the wider FilmOn TV Networks.

    FoTV is effectively their Social networking service which shows live streaming and uploads and users can start their own channel and broadcast to others. You would see a lot of video gaming on this channel.

    You also have the convenient FilmON TV service which streams live tv channels over the Internet.
    Website: http://www.filmon.tv/
    FilmON TV currently offers each of the following:
    They describe themselves as the World's largest FREE TV Streaming site (i) Live TV (ii) On Demand (iii) TV Guide
    Premium services are also offered (i.e.) Premium Movies & TV Shows for an additional fee and I think they may often offer these in HD resolution with little or no commercial advertising unlike their FREE TV offerings which have tended to be broadcast in SD format along with commercial advertising shown at certain times.
