Thanks Richard

Re: One or two new channels coming to Freesat.
 

You're welcome.

Now some not so good news, from 27/11/17 the Curzon Home Cinema Freesat app will no longer be available on Freesat set top boxes or the web app.

You will be able to continue renting films using the Freesat app until this date, and Curzon recommend that you make any final rentals by 25 November 2017 to ensure that you can stream these on your TV of choice for their 48 hour availability. The purchase will automatically appear in 'My Films' across all your enabled devices.

I have never even heard of the Curzon Home Cinema Richard

Re: One or two new channels coming to Freesat.
 

It's a service that's delivered online to Freesat boxes and enables films to be rented, so may not show up on your box Nashville.

NB it's also available on Virgin Media boxes.

Together TV is a new channel from the Community Channel, planned to launch on Freeview (and other platforms) in early 2018.

Info. courtesy of jj20x.

Also, technical preparations have been made that suggest that motorsport.tv, Quest Red +1 and Quest +1 are to shortly join Freesat.

Thanks Richard,

Re: One or two new channels coming to Freesat.
 

No problem :)

Just noticed that I typed in Freeview in my post instead of Freesat (although Together TV is said to be coming to Freeview too).

Cheers

Re: One or two new channels coming to Freesat.
 

Update: Expected to start 16/1/18 and to replace The Community Channel.

Re: One or two new channels coming to Freesat.
 

Update:

QUEST +1 will shortly start on EPG number 168 and QUEST RED +1 will shortly start on EPG number 170.

is Motorsport.tv shortly coming to Freesat soon, as would love this on the service... I hope Eden comes to Freesat next year too...

Re: One or two new channels coming to Freesat.
 

Looks like it from the technical changes that have been made, but nothing is official yet.

I'll let you know if I hear anything else :)

Re: One or two new channels coming to Freesat.
 

Motorsport TV* is now broadcasting FTA and is now presumably ready to go onto the Freesat EPG.

If you want to watch it before it's officially added, you can tune it in via non Freesat mode using the following parameters:

11.307 H, 27.500, 5/6, DVB-S QPSK

*You may find it labelled as '52290'.

New BBC channel for Scotland coming to Freesat next year:

Re: One or two new channels coming to Freesat.
 

When it launches, Motorsport.tv (abbreviated name 'motorstv') will be on EPG no 253.

Coincidentally, 'Freesat UHD' has (re)appeared in the test region on LCN 998. This points to the SES/Astra test stream on 12441V, which is probably the new addition to the Freesat NIT. This essentially replaces the 'Freesat 4K' service that was present until recently.

Worth mentioning the three test labels that have been present for a while, too. 'Test 1', 'Test 2' and 'Test 3' are allocated LCNs 1961, 1962 and 1963 respectively. While there are other test labels, these have got EPG data for ITV Tyne Tees SD, HD and +1.

Interestingly they point to non-existent data streams using PIDs 10544, 10545 and 10546 on the Freesat home TP, very odd...
