This test seems to work very well on most non-Linux based boxes for some reason. On enigma2, use DreamboxEdit and add these to "Extra Parameters: c:010902,c:05001,c:000901

Also, make sure to check the P option to use cached PID's. Even after these changes, the video is very catchy. It looks like a framerate issue. But at least we are getting some video!

Got it this am ...... Scot penalty shoot out in progress. Great looking picture.

No sound as yet .... does not appear to be transmitted .....

Freesports HD details

and the Freesports SD details

Tried it on 2 different makes of box. No audio yet and video was very jumpy. Then again it IS still only a test signal.

I mapped 55278 in Tvheadend tonight and attempted to view it in Kodi ......... "Subscription Error" was the result!

Would be nice to see Tunisia Vs Spain in HD ....

I tried editing that on my Ariva with the Ariva Editor, but no joy - still no sound.

I couldn't get it when I tried earlier.

From another forum.

Some receivers will need you to add the audio pids in add on channels where available:-
28.2 east
11509 V 23000 2/3 MPEG-4
DVB-S2/8PSK

VPID 2305
APID 2306
PPID 2305
VIDEO TYPE = H.264
Audio Type = MPEG 1/2

On my receiver the APID was 0000. I changed it to 2306 and the audio appeared. Tunisia v Spain from Krasnodar will be on this evening.

Fair play to Freesports many sceptics about this channel esp the promised HD, will it replace SD or augment it?

Johnboy1951

By the time I got to look this morning, it was gone again

The picture is back. It looks great in HD. But the audio is still not available for now. I would suspect that the channel will go on & off for intermittent testing for a while.

But so far so good with the picture. It's quality looks outstanding.

Odd, 6211 is the SID of Quest Red+1 on 12382H and also for a blank channel on 12344H.
I did not expect to see duplicate SIDs.

I see nothing on 11876H - yet.

dublinman1990

Just an update about FreeSports HD.

There is FreeSports EPG info available on a channel added with the SID label 6211.

Freq: 11876

Symbol Rate: 27500

Polarization: H

No picture or sound is there at the moment. Although I'm guessing that this channel will become FreeSports HD from July.

Keep your eyes on this channel in the meantime. Post us any updates once new data becomes available.

a516digital are saying that Sky and Freesat carry the same feed for freesports so the HD feed could well be on all platforms.

From the above press release

In addition, FreeSports will turn High Definition on Sky and Virgin from July.

I would read that as subbed for HD and SD on FTA. Hopefully I'm wrong.

Ya I think they mentioned a few months back that FreeSports would be going HD.

Not since last February when they posted "May approx"
Should also be HD on Freesat when they go on Sky, according to a twitter post.

Just seen this on the Freesports Facebook page
Somebody asked will this be every week.

"Hi, we are showing the first 2 live games. All other games will be shown on Premier sports live and FreeSports will be showing them repeated!"

FRIENDO

A great weekend for GAA on free TV.
I always missed the games on a Saturday evening, hopefully Freesports keep this up.

It seems to be hurling this week, I wonder will they show the football next week

icdg

They are games for which Eir Sport hold the rights in Ireland. Now, as an aside, Premier Sports can show all GAA League and Championship games aside from those on Sky - not just those Eir Sport are covering - so FreeSports could probably show the TG4 games too. I have a hunch they won’t though. Indeed Premier Sports is showing Kerry v Donegal on Sunday, but that won’t be on FreeSports.

Tg4 only ever show the Sunday games. Eir Sport show them on Saturday
