scrambled here :confused:

[captainglassback]

It was due to stop, (ie scramble!), on Feb 29th as all decoders should be out there by then! As horse folk are probably reading this has anyone seen the US feeds that have been pumped out for years @ 10e on Sat / Sun evenings anywhere recently?

[captainglassback]

Andy. No its not scrambled yet. (2PM UK) Probably scrambled 1 March though!

[andy]

scrambled for me on spiderbox

[andy]

thanks captain just got it on azbox is it 422 ?

thats what it usually is if i can only get sound on spider and can get picture on azbox

[captainglassback]

Very strange behaviour! I am looking at it on Spider 9000 so can't be 4-2-2. Sound fine....in fact better than ever as the Italian commentator isn't rabbiting away in the background today!

[andy]

when i used the spiderbox it came up as scrambled but with commentary

[andy]

thanks for your help captainglassback just rebooted the spiderbox and the picture came on

[Barney]

All ok today 14:40pm GMT
But yes must be 4:2:2 because its Audio only on my Dm600s SD box ..but pic and audio ok on my Dm800SE HD ..GBI [ At the Races ] 100% FTA still however ..
Sirius 5E 12111 H 27500sr Fec 5/6 DVB S ...Such a shame to hear this will go encrypt soon as it is a very good find indeed .

yes i shoulda mentioned already about audio i noticed that immediatly and instantly without thinking changed it to correct option ...similar double Audio was with Swiss channls on 13e if i recall correctly ? and changing L Or R wud correct that .
Doubt it matters tho' as 1 more day is all we'll get with that Channl i suppose b4 it goes encrypt ..possibly power-Vu or maybbe Viaccess Encryption like the other Racing channls on 5e i guess ??

[captainglassback]

Surprised given the decoder announcement! Still fta 1st March.

[andy]

pictures back but beware they are well behind sky atr (3.10p) T

33 secs behind at southwell 3.20 after they went off air at same time as ruks pic went

[captainglassback]

Still going strong fta on Mon 5th. With no evening GB racing they are showing US Parx.

[captainglassback]

Great while it lasted. Unfortunately looks like it is now scrambled!

[gorgeit]

silly question , but is there a card you can purchase for this

[andy]

there wont be a card for it, as it is meant for overseas bookies it will be just like SIS

it was good while it lasted :frown:

[gorgeit]

just the way a racing channel should be . :nopity:

[Barney]

very sad news but at least we all knew well in advance the end was near for GBI Racing i suppose ... :frown:
