ITV HD on Freesat ...problems

Postby Martin Page » Mon Feb 21, 2011 5:14 pm

Hi guys

Has anybody seen that ITV are not transmitting HD Dolby stereo any more on Freesat - however you can get it on non-freesat ... whats going on ?

Is it possible to edit the non-freesat setting to the freesat setting

For what ever reason .... ITV-HD when set on Granada Post code on my Humax Foxsat used the frequency 10.936 v 22000 5/6
which isnt HD or Dobly Digital

I have now changed the post code to a Middlesex (LONDON) and ITV-HD frequency has defaulted to 10.832 H 22000 5/6 wich is full HD and Dolby Digital (and can record it as well)

The Ive swapped the BBC London for BBC NW on the options, since I want the 'local' news from in the UK

Sorted

Perhaps some bright spark might like to tell me why one frequency for ITV - HD... is, or isnt HD

Martin - how do you find the frequency setting for a particular channel on a Humax box?

Whilst tuned to the channel you want to check press the button OPT+. This will show you the channel and programme plus the frequency, polarisation, symbol rate and forward error correction.
