Re: Channels switched to MPEG4
 

Two "A Message For Parents" channels (Virgin UK Channels 968 and 985) has moved from CO34 to CO70.

Due to them changed multiplex/frequency you will need to re-Add to your Favourites.

Re: Channels switched to MPEG4
 

Why would anyone add that channel to their favourites?

Re: Channels switched to MPEG4
 

NINE unknown Channels (All in MPEG2) has started to test on CO32 today. All are broadcasting test cards (Look like for Sky Sports red Button).

An other unknown Channel has appeared on CO65 - Not broadcasting right now.

Re: Channels switched to MPEG4
 

Confrim: Sky Cinema SD Channels soon to be axe from CO65.

Re: Channels switched to MPEG4
 

Something I predicted finally happened! :D Not that it wasn't pretty obvious, what with the lack of MPEG4 switch when the Sky Sports channels were done ages ago.

Not that I've ever subscribed. Affects me not a jot.

Re: Channels switched to MPEG4
 

UPDATE: Sky Sports Red Button channels are on CO36 right now but Virgin Media are set to move Sky Sports Red Button Channels to CO32.

We have found on DBR that some of "Channel Moved" has been renamed "Channel Update".

on CO47.

Re: Channels switched to MPEG4
 

Interesting. I didn't noticed them when I posted about Channel Update Slate rename on Tsid18 (the Sky Cinema SD multiplex) this morning.

Re: Channels switched to MPEG4
 

Aside from the removal of Sky Cinema SD channel, which I put on the Changelog thread as this one isn't appropriate, there was another change I noticed, on Tsid101 (CO56 on DigitalBitRate website).

The BBC1 SD regional channel (the North West version is what is covered by DBR, so it may not affect other BBC1 SD regional versions on equivalent multiplex elsewhere) has switched to MPEG4.

Also, on the same multiplex, there is a New Sans Nom with HD resolution. It appears to be the same channel. So apparently BBC1 North West is going HD.

Given BBC1 has about 17 (vague recollection, it may be a slightly different number) versions and only 4(?) have a HD version because the BBC can't afford to convert them all at once, this won't be happening for them all on VM any time soon.

As of 1.34pm today it was broadcasting Sky Sports Golf in MPEG4.

Re: Channels switched to MPEG4
 

Maybe it's going to be Sky Sports Racing HD or Sky Premiere +1 HD? One of the remaining channels on the Sky Cinema SD multiplex would make sense.

Re: Channels switched to MPEG4
 

Sky Cinema do not have an Sky Cinema Premiere +1 HD Channel.

Re: Channels switched to MPEG4
 

I didn't look at the graph dates, I just knew it was since I last looked a couple days ago. :)

CBS Reality would make sense, one of the main Local Channel companies simulcasts that channel during the daytime on their channels.

I didn't think they did. But I suspect Sky may be going HD-only with their premium channels soon on Satellite, to make room for these upcoming linear UHD channels, so there might be soon.

Re: Channels switched to MPEG4
 

BBC One SD was showing golf at the same time (possibly part of a 1 O'Clock news report based on the time).
