ITV 2, 3 + 4 HD back?

[RedDevil101]

On another forum I have just seen 2,3 & 4 HD are back. I have just checked and they are, Why is this?

Is this a return of HD Channels?

They moved to Astra 2G a few days ago. Enjoy them while they last. Other HD channels are still unavailable to non-official receivers.

Ah right, isn't there some talk of them becoming FTA again as ITV isn't going to renew the contract with sky where ITV HD channels are only available through Sky?

Do you think any of the other HD channels will ever be back?

How do you get these to swap with SD versions ?

[RedDevil101]

As they may be temporary I just flick to the High Def Channels and put it on

If using Hades 013, and if using ABM (I use "CustomRegion") and with swap enabled will do so automatically.

no more FTA here.Showing NDS

[abu baniaz]

They are not FTA, they are FTV.

[bellejt]

ok then logical I cannot see them :)

[DaMacFunkin]

They are not FTA, they are FTV.

Is there any text or literature about that suggests they will stay that way?

[abu baniaz]

They have always been FTV.

I guess everyone is hoping that they become FTA when the contract with Sky expires.

[bellejt]

yep would be nice to have them to in surplus to the BBC,CH4 and ITV channels

Updated to 013 - Using ABM - Custom Region enabled but not showing in any bouquets.

[Andy_Hazza]

Strange, ITV 2 HD is 118, ITV 3 HD is 119 and ITV 3 HD is 120 with my ABM setup.

Yeah you will need to be on a newer Hades Build. What are you currently on? Menu > Information > About.

[Andy_Hazza]

I'm on the latest Hades, Build 018 and all my boxes have ITV 2 HD, ITV 3 HD & ITV 4 HD. Update your zero to the latest hades if not already, and then start scan in ABM.

The images have names and numbers. This helps identify them. If you can say what version of Hades you are on, it can be worked out whether you have an image that has had the changes incorporated or not.

The simplest thing is to update you image to Hades 018.

[blacknight83]

just checked my zero I'm on build 018 done a scan several times still not seeing itv 2-4 in hd

What is your providers setup? "CustomRegion" and swap enabled? In my setup (swap enabled) ITV 2 HD is 118, ITV 3 HD is 119 and ITV 4 HD is 120.

freesat UK yes
freesat UK area England hd
sky Roi yes
sky roi area :roi hd
Sky UK: no

What area are you from?

[blacknight83]

Ireland

[ronand]

ITV 2,3, & 4 HD are not supposed to be in the Irish bouquets on a sky receiver so ABM wont pick them up by default

[Andy_Hazza]

Can you change your settings and try this?
ROI - No
Sky UK - Yes
Sky UK Area - Custom Northern Ireland
And then rescan ABM

Also, he needs 'not indexed' enabled or the RTE channels wont appear.

[blacknight83]

Thanks guys I'll give it a try also how do I select not indexed?


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[Andy_Hazza]

In configure and use expert mode and then you can enable 'not indexed channels' [emoji106]🏼

Will these channels clear on an RoI card? I presumed they would need a UK region card (or "Freesat" from SKY card). Or maybe I need something in my cccam config file? It's an empty file, but I receive all the normal SD channels as per my card entitlements, but not RTE2 HD.

[ronand]

Rte2 HD should clear if you have the HD package. Its not paired like most of the sky channels.

[Joe_90]

No, I just have the standard SD family pack. I know RTE2 HD used to clear all right on my E2 receiver, but it certainly doesn't now. I have Saorview in any case, so have HD on RTE 1 and 2.

I was just curious how @blacknight83 was getting the ITV 3/4 HD. They don't clear for me. I mostly use the card for SKY Arts music programmes in any case - don't bother with much else on SKY except occasional stuff on Atlantic.

Hi guys i have tried everything you have said and i still cannot get ITV 2,3,4 HD.

I am using hades 18, VU Duo2 scanning using ABM. My Region is Central HD

any help would be great.

[Andy_Hazza]

Use the "CustomRegion" in providers and enable swap and rescan ABM.

[TopBuzz]

Are you subscribed to HD?

[djz46]

Yep done that still no joy.

FYI i have noticed that the ITV 3 & 4 HD Channels are on transponder frequency 11052mhz but when im pressing my info button they are showing up as 13468mhz?

They are tuning on 11052mhz though

[chumley]

Hi - I've got the HD pack but none of these channels are clearing for me - what magic are you guys using??

Sorted guys it was in my custom regions i didn't notice i was scanning England W/Mids sd and not HD

[abu baniaz]

You should not be using HD either. There are three varieties: HD, SD and Custom.

[djz46]

Thanks abu but I don't see custom when flicking through?

[duoduo]

Thanks abu but I don't see custom when flicking through?

What version of Vix are you using?

[djz46]

As I stated above hades 018

[Andy_Hazza]

What region are you using in providers?


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[djz46]

Hi Andy, I'm in Central West Mids so using that area when I flick through the choices.
I don't see the option for custom region.
I have got it sorted now though thanks for your help.

[abu baniaz]

Does it say SD, HD or Custom at end?

[Andy_Hazza]

If you are on latest Hades, you defo have CustomRegion option. It is the best option to go with, rids of all the unwanted non working HD channels, nice n tidy!!


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[djz46]

Found the custom region after flicking through everything SD, HD etc. Thanks guys. I was looking at freesat instead of sky uk lol

[Andy_Hazza]

lol. If you enabled swap in providers the working hd channels will be in its place.
