UK DVB-S Bouquets

[mvallevand]

I am looking at an alternate addon for scanning DVB-S in the UK for Astra 28.2 and I assume I need to support Freesat and Sky channel number but I have some questions.

- Do those of you who use DVB-S know how to use the tables here https://mizar.mythtv.org/wiki/DVB_UK
- Does anyone know what the G2 table is here  https://www.satellite-calculations.com/D...Number.php
- For Freesat SD it doesn't look like any channels are regionalized, what is the purpose of using a bouquet for them in England (not in Scotland, Wales or NI)?

Martin,

I couldn't get the https://mizar.mythtv.org/wiki/DVB_UK webpage to load. Says not available.

Your 2nd question may be answered here:- https://www.astra2sat.com/freesat-g2-specifications/

BBC have moved most regional stuff to HD so I don't think they've got regional stuff on SD. (Radio is regionalised).
The Regional ITV "Live" channels are HD but their Regional +1 channels are SD.

Thanks Ray, it seem the G2 info via the bouquet isn't returning anything special and the ITV + 1 are in the HD bouquet and I didn't see and radio on the SD bouquet.

It looks like MythTV site is down right now but my guess is your bouquent is 7, 8 or 9 for both Freesat and Sky. It's here on the archive.org https://web.archive.org/web/202110161459...iki/DVB_UK
