BBC HD migration - frequency changes

Gerry Wicklow · 14-02-2023 03:12PM

The SD versions of BBC Two, Four, Cbeebies and Red button have moved from 10773 to the temporary 12442 TP presumably to clear and upgrade 10773.

A label with the SID 6931 has appeared on 10847 V 23000. It's for BBC One South East HD.

If you have the sports channels on Sky.

EPG data for DAZN has appeared on SID 53725. 53730 could be DAZN 2.

There is also a new FTA test for That 70's Music which is on SID 55201. It's on 11343 V 27500.

Another version of Pick UK SD has appeared testing a new set of DVB Subtitles. It is on SID 1304.

I dont think Lynqsat or Kingofsat are updating during this shuffle or maybe Im misreading them, what are the current frequencies for HD BBC1 NI, BBC2 NI and BBC 4 please? I dont care about anything else...

AllForIt · 14-02-2023 11:26PM

I use Mediaportal on a PC and I'd guess it updates the frequency file from kingofsat or lynqsat. Just updated, ran a scan and still no red button or BBC wales, some BBC channels still working. I'll try again in a week to see if this sorts itself. Would hardly ever watch BBC Wales but the Welsh Snooker Masters is on this week and on Red Button. What bad timing.

Lyngsat is correct as I write this. BBC One NI 10847 V. BBC Two NI 12168 V. BBC Four 10818 V.

That 10.788V is a bit difficult to tune, no problem on my main Sky+HD box, but wont display on the SkyHD multiroom box, despite a signal test shown good strength and quality.

They are updating but maybe a day behind following any channel changes.

Nice one, had to add the parameters into an xml file, did the same for bbc wales, Four, and voila.

Good to have red button on HD finally. Would never have found it if I didn't know its currently named 10329!

Gerry Wicklow · 15-02-2023 08:50AM

They are making a lot of changes very fast, so it's hard for the usual sites like KoS or Lyngsat to keep up. Even for us anoraks, the info is changing quicker than we can post it. 😊

BBC 1 London is due for the HD treatment on Sky boxes today (have a London region card). I'd say the generic BBC 1 HD at 115 will be removed in due course when the English regions finish their transition to HD at the end of next week.

Gerry Wicklow · 15-02-2023 03:32PM

The Red Button stream in HD that was listed as SID 10329 is now relabelled

BBC RB 1 HD

10788 V 23000 3/4 8PSK DVB-S2

(and yes the snooker looks great)

Gerry Wicklow · 15-02-2023 04:23PM

10773 has been cleared of old BBC SD services and upgraded to DVB-S2

Details to follow

All the BBCs and the Snooker on the RB restored to the parents and neighbours this evening and Im the hero of the Parish again 😎

The snooker does look very good alright, popping off the screen. Thanks both.

Gerry Wicklow · 16-02-2023 12:25PM

10773 H 23000 3/4 8PSK DVB-S2

3 New BBC 1 HD regions and (badly) upscaled BBC Parliament.

EDIT: 6312 is BBC TWO HD Norn Iron

6311 = BBC1 North East

6331 = BBC1 North West

6371 = BBC1 Yorkshire

6308 = Parliament

So is BBC2 NI HD being moved from 12168V? It's been on the London region Sky EPG (970) since January.

Gerry Wicklow · 16-02-2023 04:29PM

Right now, your guess is as good as mine. However it would make sense for them to consolidate their channels onto their own TPs. 12168 seems an odd mix of BBC and A N Others

dublinman1990 · 16-02-2023 09:55PM

I didn't expect to see BBC Parliament to be a bad upscale in HD. It looks absolutely horrible on my 24 inch Smart TV at home.

Due to appear on the Sky EPG (UK) tomorrow according to RX TV.

Heighway61 · 21-02-2023 02:30PM

BBC1 HD gone from sky. Will have to put up with the NI crap, later program starts and missing programs.

You can tune in all the alternatives using the Add Channels feature, but unfortunately you can't record them when they're added to Other Channels. But at least you can watch them live.

Hotblack Desiato · 21-02-2023 05:50PM

One of the great things about Freesat is not having to put up with BBC NI butchering the schedule.

Thargor · 21-02-2023 06:47PM

So the HD BBCs are gone again already?

swoofer · 21-02-2023 07:05PM

can you explain a bit more?

Oh maybe he was just talking about them moving on Sky now that I reread his post sorry...

22-02-2023 10:02AM

BBC reshuffle completes today for Sky boxes. Also BBC 3 shifts to channel 115 for English regions. In London it was at 173.

b318isp · 22-02-2023 12:31PM

Anyone having an issue in tuning 10788V (for BBC RB HD)? I'm getting no signal from the transponder at all. All other transponders are OK, and I've never seen this issue before (Unicable LNB into a Gigablue UHD 4k).
