Channel 5HD will be going fta in the near future

[Analoguesat]

One of the lads on the DS forum has posted that the Freesat data pid has been added to the (currently encrypted) C5HD transmission.

Daystar HD will also be joining Freesat although that wont be attracting too many viewers!

Good news re. 5HD.

Next step - watchable programmes.

Next step - watchable programmes.

I honestly couldn't tell you a single program that's shown on C5. Is Fifth Gear still alive?

"Official" Freesat launch is tomorrow, so only available in non-Freesat mode for now.

I think we can wait

Not showing up on my Freesat at all - Belfast Postcode

 

[Lazarus]

Wait until around noon ;)

 

[william-1]

Not showing on my Sony Freesat TV Essex post code ?
OK on all other receivers where I have added manually.

 

[Lazarus]

See the post preceding ....

Nothing showing on Freeview HD this morning either but I suppose the engineers responsible work office hours like most of us.

 

[Lazarus]

Now launched on Freesat 105.

Different boxes react to changes in various ways, so don't fret if it appears still to be absent. It'll happen for you soon.

ie, if you now do a Freesat scan, it'll be there, but otherwise just wait until your box's next Housekeeping cycle.

NCIS is not in HD on Channel 5 HD (at least series 3 and 4 aren't). NCIS New Orleans is in HD.
