[Black Hole]

Hmm. As of this morning (28/6/19), TrueEntertainment is still broadcasting on COM5.

Hmm. As of this morning (28/6/19), TrueEntertainment is still broadcasting on COM5.

It is here. But after a retune on LCN 790. With another version on the local Mux.

 

[prpr]

The old versions of movies4men and True Crime are as well, up in the 790s, which tunefix removes with its default configuration.
They won't be around for much longer.

Just spotted this on RXTVlog - suppose I better check all is still well when I get home.
I have BBC4 SD currently on LCN 8 and That's TV kicked into the long grass. Better make sure it's still working like that before any 'important' proms come along!

CHANGELOG

21st August 2019

• Scotland only: 82 to 75 - BBC Four SD (PSB1 - BBC)
• Scotland only: 115 to 108 - BBC Scotland HD (PSB3 - BBC)

 

[prpr]

Those lumps at Digital UK can't seem to keep their website up-to-date. There is no mention of BBC FOUR in Scotland at all, and BBC Scotland HD is still shown on the old number. You'd have thought (well I would) changes like this would be one of their primary functions.
Updated the 1.0.81 release to accommodate this as well.

Better make sure it's still working like that before any 'important' proms come along!

Nothing will have changed on your T2. It makes no difference to your recordings anyway, as it doesn't work on LCNs, which is a good job considering how often they muck about with them.

 

[prpr]

1.0.82:

Mux. moves for 700 MHz clearance at:​

Brougher Mountain (PSB1, PSB2, PSB3 and COM4)​

Divis (COM6, COM7, COM8 and Local)​

Limavady (PSB1, PSB2, PSB3, COM4, COM5 and COM6)​

Finally they noticed. Only taken 2 weeks. Pathetic.

Saw something in Radio Times about Sony rehashing their channel names the other day and it also mentioned new channel numbers. Not noticed anything in this thread though.
Was that duff info or perhaps only non-freeview channels?

 

[Black Hole]

True Entertainment (the M*A*S*H channel*) is being rebranded Sony Channel. No doubt True Movies is also being rebranded.

* I spent 6 months in Canada in 1987, where I was amazed (not in a good way) by cable TV and that there was a PBS service with M*A*S*H on its schedule, a couple of episodes every night. I asked the locals what will happen when the come to the end of the series, and they said it just starts all over again. 30 years later...

 

[emdubya77]

I saw this the other day but didn't take much notice as I can't receive most of their channels anyway.
