Yes just the Freesat tune. It happened last time the clocks went forward too, it's probably near end of life at this stage, 3 hard drives have gone in to it over the years.
Didn't happen to me, did you do Freesat tune, or a factory reset?
Factory reset deletes everything except recordings.
I notice now all my scheduled recordings have been deleted on the Foxsat after manually running the channel search. Not sure if that's going to happen to everyone or not, perhaps the auto scan overnight won't cause it to happen.
Didn't appear automatically on either of my Foxsats, they must have appeared after the 3am auto-update window, but I manually scanned them in on one box. The HD versions replace the SD ones in the EPG, same as Channel 5. The other box should get them itself tonight at 3am.
That was quick! Still no sign of the Channel 4 HD regions or BBC 2 NI HD.
All three channels are on my Freest Box at 113, 115 and 117
ITV2/3/4 HD now on the Freesat EPG. I had to manually scan it just now as the automatic overnight 3am run didn't pick them up.
I wonder why its taking so long for BBC2 NI HD to get on the Sky & Freesat EPG's? Its been months now since it appeared on Astra 28e.
The new ITV channels will follow the same format as the old one with regards to EPG
Not on the Irish EPG anyway, VMTV would have an aneurysm.
Should the new ITV channels be on the EPG on a Sky+HD box with a sub or do they need to be manually tuned to Other Channels?
I'm not seeing them on a sky+hd box.
Edit: thought it meant they would be on the EPG, I guess not.
I have the same set up. The hd channels are on it now.
Yes rescan your satellite channels.
ITV 2hd is channel 164 on my tv and the others up a little further.
If you haven't already, add the channels u watch to favourites so they will be handier to find.
They will very soon replace the SD versions on 113, 115 and 117. It could take days or weeks to launch
The 3 HD channels were added to the Freesat Test region EPG earlier today

Hi Gerry,
Just a quick question - I have a smart TV (LG brand) with a built in sat. receiver off dish. To get these ITV 2,3,& 4 HD channels do I have to re tune my TV or is there an easier way of doing it ? As you may have guessed I'm not exactly tech savvy !
Thanks.
We have FTA access to VM 1, VM2 and TG4, although not on satellite. On Satellite the above channels are HD on the Sky basic package (no HD package needed)
Given that ITV is a part-owner of Freesat it'd be a bit daft if ITV2/3/4 HD didn't show up on the Freesat EPG fairly soon...
didn’t think movies 24 would go FTA but I just saw online your right it’s mentioned that it will nov 1-Dec31st
FreeSat have yet to announce if they will be added to their EPG but they should now be available to manually add in FTA mode
Will they be available on my Humax box
ITV2 HD 11053 H 23000, 3/4, DVB-S2, 8PSK.
ITV4 HD 11067 V 23000, 3/4, DVB-S2, 8PSK.
ITV3 HD 11097 V 23000, 3/4, DVB-S2, 8PSK.
No sign of Christmas 24 (movies) going FTA .
Are we able to tune these in on a FTA box with frequency codes?
ITV 2, 3, 4 HD now FTA as of 11:00
Certainly very unexpected but very welcome
Oh my god. I am only just reading the announcement about ITV2/3/4 HD now. In one way; I am absolutely gobsmacked that ITV are doing this move for FTA satellite viewers like myself. I am flipping delighted that ITV are going to provide these HD channels to their viewers for free on satellite from later today (Tuesday Nov 1st).
Although I think this move from ITV does coincide with the impending launch of ITVX in the UK along with the refresh of their TV channels which is happening later this week.
I heard that ITVX will launch today. And the refresh of the ITV channels, including the relaunch of ITV 1, will happen on Thursday.
But other than that; I am just so happy to read this news this morning. When I read about it a few minutes ago for the first time; my jaws nearly dropped to the floor in stunned silence. I bet you guys probably did the same thing.
That great news about ITV's hd 2,3,4 going fta. With Zgemma 7 4k box full epg . That's a nice xmas box .Could we see C4 doing the same with there hd channels .Sky would **** themselves.
Didn't see that one coming 😱
Thats a great addition for fta receivers or other channels on SkyQ. While here at home, we still don't have fta access to Virgin or TG4 in HD and probably won't for years, if ever.
ITV2 HD, ITV3 HD & ITV4 HD are due to go FTA tomorrow
