Unable to Tune in Four+1

Hi,

This problem only affecting satellite service. Haven't actually had the opportunity to rescan a non approved decoder yet. But all the official freeview decoders I'v been retuning aren't picking up Four+1. Is it actually there yet?

Also had 3 people so far, with Prime just randomly vanished. Have retuned them fine but wondering if many other people (installers) Have stuck same problem?

TV3 was supposed to move to 12644 at the end of June but seems to still be working on 12456.

Have emailed Tim Diprose at freeview but awaiting a reply from Wednesday.

Cheers

Tony

Hi Tony, no FOUR plus 1 is only available on FREEVIEW|HD at the moment, it'll start its FREEVIEW SATELLITE service next week (likely Thursday).

One of the emails from Tim Diprose says that TV3 on 12456 will shut down:

"Please note Mediaworks will be shutting down the TV3 Auckland feed on Optus D1 12456H and Freeview will update the BAT to point approved devices to the new Sky TP.

NZ15 Lower (12644MHz H-Pol).

Service ID – 1033"

Unless hes just talking about one of the Duplicate TV3's. Didn't specify PID's so I just assumed he meant the whole transponder. Upon reflection, I guess hes just talking about one of the Duplicate versions of TV3.

He also said:

Changes that will be done on 1am 26 June

TV3 Auckland Kordia feed will be removed
Freeview BAT will point to Sky TP
Edge TV will launch on ch9 on both satellite and terrestrial
C4 will close
FOUR + 1 will launch on ch 11 on both satellite and terrestrial

Guess I'll just have to wait and see

You're right Willis. That is the plan. The tv3 services on 12456 will all stay there.

Hi Guys

I would like to clarify the Four+1 Status.

The broadcaster (Mediaworks) had last minute changes to the way their services will broadcast on Satellite, the removal of TV3 Auckland on the Kordia Transponder has been scrapped and this was made before The Edge TV launched.

Four+1 on DTH will be on the SKY TP of 12644H22500 (Same as The Edge TV) with the Kordia TP being left untouched.

Four+1 will launch officially on Channel 9 on both services.

Cheers

Joshua

There is no EPG data because Four Plus1 is currently being tested by the broadcaster in prep for its full launch alongside the satellite "Four +1"

Four PLUS1 on 12644H22500 VPID 1003 APID 1103 SID 1033

This replaced the TV 3 Auckland feed (SKY) that all standard SKY Boxes were directed to (SKY has now set their boxes to point to the TV3 Auckland service on the Freeview Transponder)

TV2 now remains the only channel duplicated on different transponders
