    Hi all,

    World snooker has started on BBC and much of the coverage is on the red button which is no longer available on EPG.

    I have manged to get frequency to add BBC RB1 as an "other channel" on my sky box.

    To watch the two table set up I am looking for the frequency numbers to add the RB2.

    Can anyone help please.

    No discussion of circumventing regional restrictions.

    For the avoidance of doubt, that warning is directed only at the post immediately above. There is no problems posting tuning details for any free to air satellite service.

    Thanks. Maybe there isn't an RB2 option !

    When it was possible to access the red button on BBC through the epg you could choose whichever table you wanted to watch when viewing the snooker.

    Maybe you can only watch one table now on the red button and the other is only available online (but not of course in ROI).

    Two different matches Sunday afternoon, BBC 2 and RB1.

    http://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/other-sports/605775/World-Snooker-Championship-2017-watch-live-TV-stream-online-free

    On Sunday, matches will be shown on BBC 2 and on the red button.

    For anyone who can get the satellite at 7 East there are feeds from early morning every year, but they are usually encrypted.
