Thank you.

Many thanks for this!

Morris Code

Yej-Brilliant Gerry -Thanks for doing this

NUTLEY BOY

Thanks for that list.

I have an Amiko combibox.

I did a blind scan and that retrieved all the BBC radio and TV channels that had disappeared as well as some others like Talking Pictures and various ITVs.

Be sure to instruct the scan not to download any pay to view channels. That cuts down the number of channels by about 1,000 !

Even easier (and faster) just to do single transponder scans

Just one BBC One variant missing from the OP, as it's not on a BBC TP

BBC One South HD - 12168 V 27500 2/3 DVB-S2 8PSK

reboot

Just a thought,could the freq changes be related to the problems some are having on the thread relating to older Sky+ HD boxes,and in particular,older LNBs not coping with these changes? Thanks.

reboot

Express newspaper and elsewhere saying Sky may offer free upgrades to customers with Sky+HD boxes nor liking the freq changes. This means free Sky Q box? As BBC discontinue SD transmissions seems a number of older boxes,listed in the article,may no longer work. Those folk who are not customersmay fing the box no longer receives a signal,with on screen displays reading No signal,wait for box to initialise.

Sorry if this is old news,haven't visited this site in a while.

muffler

I thought Sky offered free upgrades several years ago in an effort to get rid of HD boxes completely. I could be wrong though.

reboot

This problem only came to light here about 3 weeks ago when BBC disappeared. Will folk have to sign up to another 18 month contract to get a "Free" Q box?

Gerry Wicklow

The BBC changes happened last March. Other stations use similar settings so that is not the problem. A more likely scenario is simply that the box is old and has failing components. As for Sky free upgrades; they knew some older SD boxes would not cope with the new settings and offered to upgrade them for customers. This was A) because they knew they would have to change them anyway eventually and B) as a marketing ploy to take advantage of the hype over the BBC upgrades.

Infoanon

In the most recent push to get customers to switch to a Q box ,Sky agents have contacted Sky HD box customers saying that are about to lose BBC 1 and 2 , the script continues with the line that Sky have lost the rights to BBC on their Sky HD boxes....

Obviously this is not the case with only the SD channels due to close shortly.

reboot

In this case,the lady was not told she would lose any channels,only that there was an offer to upgrade involving another 18 month contract.

No analogue audio output from Q boxes is a serious disadvantage in this setup.

The insidious part of all this is how many folk called and paid for "an Engineer" when they called Sky to report "No sig"? When in fact there was a signal that Sky had changed and the box wouldn't initialise with?

It's not a big deal to get round this as most of you know with an older lnb which will handshake with the box, I've done it,but Sky are obviously very keen to offload this old technology with Glass and stream available.

The doc of Steve Jobs is interesting,he with long hair many decades ago declaring that "The future of television is on the Net"

I've been looking at this but my transponder seems to only go as far as 22000 unfortunately. Is this a limitation of my lnb or the TV. My TV isn't that old.

Cheers

What software are you running on the tuner?

Is it factory installed or have you changed the image?

I seem to remember finding this hard to locate on an old OpenVix install, but it was a few years ago.

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/120821450#Comment_120821450

It is dictated by the software of whatever you are using. If you have an option to manually "add a transponder" you may be able to enter the settings there. Otherwise see if there is updated software available for your TV. The 23000 setting is used by several stations / TPs now which is why I mentioned the ITV HDs. They also use 23000. Likewise many of the news channels, CNN, NHK, France 24, Bloomberg, Al Jazeera and so on.

Thanks for all that.

It's a smart TV, it updated itself fairly regularly, if this has anything to do with transponders, I'm not sure. I do get a list . O, now I see the + sign...FFS..pardon the French...lol, will see what happens here.

Lost BBC Four a while ago. Couldn't see 10803 H 22000 5/6 DVB-S QPSK noted above on the system - Edision box. Rescanned at the weekend after finding this link https://ewsat.com/bbc-four-tv-channel-frequency-astra-2e/, now have over 1,400 channels.

Gerry Wicklow

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121127369#Comment_121127369

That article dates to 2017. 10803 mentioned above is the temporary SD channels which will stop early next year.

BBC4HD is on 10818 V 23000 3/4 DVB-S2 8PSK after 19:00

This lists all available FTA channels https://en.kingofsat.net/freqs.php?&pos=28.2E&standard=All&ordre=freq&filtre=Clear

flop

Hello I have an LG Smart TV, when I perform a manual retune of channels I get a long list of frequencies, however I don't see any frequencies listed with 23000.

There is a mix of 22000, 23500 , 27500, 29700. Has anyone been able to tune in BBC HD channels via an LG TV?

BTW I'm trying to tune in BBC HD channels before the 8th of January cut off Date.

Apologies I just found a transponder edit section and I am able to adjust an existing preset from 22k to 23k.

All good

Gerry Wicklow

BBC Radio seem to be setting up to migrate off the temporary SD transponder.

None of those radio stations are on Sky EPG over here and have nothing to do the BBC

It's not coming up as 23000 for me, only 22000. Box is a bit all over the shop with 1,600 channels.

Gerry Wicklow

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121536799#Comment_121536799

Check what frequency it says with the 22000 FEC. If it says 10803 you are watching the SD versions which will go away in the new year.

1600 channels sounds like a lot of dead / obsolete settings. The total number of channels on 28E including radio and encrypted Sky channels is currently ~855

The Black Oil

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121537006#Comment_121537006

Do you mean the frequency within an individual channels? I meant to say the 22000 isn't coming up in the scan options when looking at 10803. Yeah, 1,600 includes a lot of duplication. Wonder if I'd be better off starting from scratch with the box.

BBC One SD

BBC Radio has now migrated onto the DVB-S2 TPs

lgs 4

I thought old radio frequency 10803 H 22000 was to close today

Gerry Wicklow

I'm told FreeSat boxes have migrated the radio channels. Presumably BBC will want to rejig the SD TP in the near future.

I've just encountered a similar notice for BBC 4. Could somebody point me to help on how to get BBC 4 back again. Thanks.

lgs 4

Have you a standard definition box or a high definition box .It you have a high definition box you will need to do a rescan on 11818 V 23000 8PSK -3/4 .That will give you BBC 4 HD

The "SD" radio channels are still running, just checked. I wonder if they'll continue until they switch off the transponder?

When I tune in the radio channels on the HD transponders they don't carry the channel names yet, only the channel SID (service ID) as the channel name, maybe until this is sorted the originals remain.

lgs 4

I know .I just renamed all radio stations

Afternoon everyone, happy new year. Using DVB Viewer on Win 11 pc to pickup satellite channels any reason why the BBC Red Button is no longer working, with the attached settings (from Kingofsat), displays the Red Button EPG but no picture or audio. Thank you.

Thank you for replying, DVB is up to date as of this afternoon (new update 7.2.5.0 rolled out) has me dumbfounded, no issues with any other channels just the RB. Thank you again

If it is an ex Irish sub box the FTA channels won't be in a normal order, though you can put them in a favourites list and all the fta channels won't be available. If you can get your hands on a UK sub card it will change the order of the channels.

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/122058420#Comment_122058420

Are they using the box with a Sky subscription?

If not can I suggest a basic cheap Freesat box that requires no tuning with all the channels in correct order

Its an Irish box,but no subscription.

I'll see how they get on with it first before looking at pickup up a freesat box as they don't watch too much TV.

Sorry to be a bit of a broken record..

Looking for The beeb (sorry can't put my gran and the proper letters together) for my gran on her sat box

It's a "Triax SR110", which says it's a HD receiver but I can't seem to find the right frequency / fec combo and I'm pretty clueless when it comes to tuning these things..

I can select which satellite and from there it gives me a number of preset frequency and fec

Astra 2e gives ?/33 options :/

I can choose between v/h and free or all.. I don't understand what the other information is that op posted like the 3/4 or the rest.. any help?

Do I need to get her a new sat box? Can anyone suggest a decent one if i do.. the simpler the better, gran is 94 and a remote with tonnes of buttons just serves to confuse.
