    Hi guys I don't watch ITV but my folks do and this evening it's not working. They normally use to the manual tuning menu on the sky box but they just get a message saying "No programmes are currently being broadcast on this channel" Any ideas on how to remedy this?

    Check the frequency Kenneth on kingofsat.net and retune it

    Just checked my Sky Q box and it's still working here.

    Would they have tuned it on other channels, if they had the sd version, ITV have stopped broadcasting many of the regional sd variations. If it was tuned manually best to tune in the HD version.

    I had to change the tuning also tonight , so you need to retune.

    Yorkshire (West) Emley Moor 10891 H 22000 5/6

    I think this is what I used but it was an older link

    I just checked the FTA list I tuned this weekend,
    ITV HD, UTV HD, ITV Wales HD, STV HD, ITV 2,3 and 4 all working fine.
    ITV1+1 has stopped working strangely enough, I suspect a minor frequency update.

    There are a couple of HD free sports channels and a couple of 4k demo channels, last time I checked one was ice hockey and one was greyhounds.

    All these channels moving does my head in. I had to retune ITV 2 & 4 for three elderly neighbours today, as well as myself.

    Why do they move so often? It doesn't affect me (Enigma box, ABM does it for me), but still curious

    Have the tuning details for ITV channels changed lately? I have them all tuned in on my Sky box, but none working lately - but the +1 ones are working fine :confused:

    I'm particularly looking for ITV4 right now, to watch the tennis!

    I've tried the details from the link provided by icdg a few posts back, but no joy......


    Edit -

    To answer my own question, found the following codes and they work for ITV4....

    10891
    H
    DVB-S
    5/6
    QPSK

    Here you are

    10891 H, 22000, 5/6, QPSK = ITV 4 SD and a few others

    10906V, 22000, 5/6, QPSK = ITV 2 SD and a few others, like ITV3.

    OK
