Freesat service ID's

fritzelly · 2018-10-28 19:26:11

Does anyone know where I can get a list of the service ID's for regional variations e.g. Channel 4 so I know which one to pick Using mediaportal and it's impossible to know which Channel 4 is the London variation and the service ID seems to be the only way to correctly identify them.

This /\

Also I wouldn’t get too stressed about picking the right C4 varient (except maybe to avoid the encrypted ROI version). The only difference between any of the variants is advertising. There is no regional programming of any kind on the channel.
