Prime +1 on Satellite

Has anyone noticed that, after quite a few years, Prime has finally properly added Prime +1 to the Freeview Satellite line up (Channel 21).Prime +1 has been available on my DishTV for a few years. It showed up with a channel number in the 1000's and it seemed that the EPG was not in the Freeview MHEG format so no EPG could be displayed and no bookings could be made.Woo Hoo!!! Now Prime +1 is properly operating with its Freeview friends and has a working EPG.That won't take long, did it?See More

"Hi Oli, I thought that I would respond as I think that this Freeview forum seems to be a bit defunct. I don't have any experience with the Panasonic TV but I may have a couple of suggestions. I am assuming you can record and playback OK using a…"

"Wonders of wonders. The only person at mediaworks with some common sense has returned from holiday and the AM program is now listed as a single one hour show in the EPG. Big tick for Mediaworks, but it should have never happened in the first place."

"Deja Vu....... The AM Show has started again for 2022. Its name has changed to just AM but we are now back to the three hour show being listed in the EPG as three 1 hour programs. Doing a series booking on my PVR books all three to record but…"

Alan Douglas replied to Alan Douglas's discussion Recording The AM Show on TV3

"As of the last couple of weeks The AM Shows program title on the EPG has reverted back to just "The AM Show" (ie. the date has been removed.) I knew that the date thing would not last long. Did it? Common sense has finally come to…"
