UK Freesat Tuning Information

[jcjefferies]

These recent moves were because Eutelsat lost ownership of a block of frequencies to SES so the channels concerned were moved first to a temporary location then a few days later to a permanent location on Astra 2F. However the really big move comes next month when 360 channels currently on Astra 1N are moved to the recently launched Astra 2E. Hopefully these moves will go unnoticed to even users of generic free to air receivers if all can be moved to the same frequency transponder on the new satellite!!

First post updated again.

And I see I said - back in October - that I'd move this to the wiki. Oops :o

Users in Germany or the Low Countries occasionally inquire about tuning information for Astra 19.2E. In the most recent such thread, MHBN was good enough to post his ini files. I'm not sure if sub noticed that, and in any case a cross-reference here might be helpful to someone: http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php...post471451

Can you please update the frequency for BBC Red Button HD (Freesat 986) ?

Looks like it moved in November 2013 http://en.kingofsat.net/channelhistory.php?ch=11731

Checking the signal for BBC Red Button HD on my TV, it says the frequency is now:

11464Mhz, H, 22000kS/s

How do I edit my own .ini file? Do I just need to change "0=43" to "0=44" and then add the new details at line 16, and then increment each subsequent line?

Thanks

Yes - though you'd probably be best to add it as the last line, so you don't have to increment all the others.

Been a while, but I've updated the first post with all the latest changes.
