shortcipher Posted August 22, 2004 Share Posted August 22, 2004 Thanks for a useful list. I am now trying to decide which ones to mark as skipped in my STB. Many of these channels appear to be broadcasting the same material, eg TEN, TEN 1, TEN 2, etc. But maybe they don't do this all the time? Is there a definitive list of the channels with distinctly different content? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rochford Posted September 9, 2004 Share Posted September 9, 2004 Couple of additions for you Winston (let's hope you can edit!): WIN appears to be running the HD loop in Cairns now (see http://www.dtvforum.info/index.php?showtopic=9167&hl=) The new ABC channel should get a mention, even if it isn't starting until next year. - Miles.

BlueDusk Posted September 9, 2004 Author Share Posted September 9, 2004 @Rochford I'd add those, but checked just then, and no edit privs right now. Need to modify for D44 as well so we'll see when Coral adds this to the 'edit exclusion zone' for a lack of a better phrase. Winston, @Kenneth It was on during a BBC programme on the ABC .

BlueDusk Posted October 4, 2004 Author Share Posted October 4, 2004 Hi Bacco, just a few observations 047 is currently the same as 40/44 however on a different encoder and has an APID. 100 is also the TEN EPG (VPG) rather than their normal SD service. I've never received SBS Digital 3 or TEN Digital 4. Winston, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueDusk Posted November 10, 2004 Author Share Posted November 10, 2004 Hi Jaybonzi, I put 8x cause I didn't have any info on NBN and I just had to guess it, 'NBN Digital 2' is what I meant by 'NBN MV1' and I'll change it to the correct name & LCN now.

mddawson Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 Its a bit rude that Canberra viewers don't get the Parliamentary channels - then again we have to put up with the a-holes in person so do we really need to see them on TV? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have their copper service). Anyway, why do we need to watch or listen to parliament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
