LG TV Irish channels

    Hi,

    I previously had the irish channels and the UK channels scanned on my LGTV. However the guide for the UK channels was only now/next so I wanted to change to Freesat.

    When I changed the region to UK and put in the postcode, all seemed ok. Now have a full Freesat epg but the scan of the antenna is only picking up some of the Irish channels? Am I doing something wrong?

    All the irish channels worked before the rescan.


    Thanks

    Generally when a TV is retuned with UK as the region the Saorview channels are stored as found by mux in the 800s by default, that including blank channels. Have you checked that the remaining channels are stored further down the list, beyond the "empty" channels?

    Apologies, it seems the reception wasn't great when scanning. Moved the antenna and rescanned and picked up all the channels.

    Hi, to be honest it is a bit cumbersome compared to a Humax box we used previously. Menu system is slower and the only quick way to switch between Freesat and Saorview is to add a long press shortcut to either option.

    It is good to have them built in but doesn't compare to a dedicated box.
