When I scan this frequency with my dreambox I get nothing. Do I have it set right from my screenshot?

The alignment of your dish may need tweaking slightly. Problems with the high frequency Eurobird transmissions are common.

Or the LNB may need swapping out.

Ok Thanks i have a sky mini dish if i buy a meter will it allow me to align the dish to max for 28.2E and will this solve the problem i.e. do you think it was sloppy sky installation that has caused this or is it like setanta that it is on a diff sat like 28.5E? Thanks

Seems that world movies has been taken from Sky's list. It's certainly not on 331 or on the list of movie channels.
I can't say I'm surprised considering they've been showing the same films ad infinitum since they launched.

Actually they did slowly change the films shown even though what they considered as the classic tended to reappear more often than they perhaps should have done. I loved the station theme tune and little trailer sequences.

If it has gone I will really miss it as I like French movies and I'm not prepared to pay £10 per month to _www.cinemoi.tv

Its not been a good week for stations I like watching or listening to with _www.lunaradio.fm also closing down in the last 5 days.:-Nooo

This is also being discussed over at digitalspy.

Er, I've just raised the same question over on the Freesat forum...I used to enjoy some of their Japanese stuff and there's no longer anything coming out on their frequency 12643 V 27500 2/3 even though Teachers TV and Ocean Finance (who share the transponder) are both still there with 100% signal strength and 92% signal quality. I also couldn't find a website for them as the only World Movies site refers to one available in Australia and parts of SE Asia...

Any ideas anyone? Is it a case of World Movies RIP?
