hi,thanx for the news ,i have a HDbox but i only get 1 channel on that transponder??? are they still on?? cheers

I just tried it as well and just get 1 TV channel called "Brit Shorts"

Guess the testing stopped

[xanadu]

Nothing here either.

[mrbleu500]

I think there is another channel, Brit Shorts on that frequesncy, maybe that's what you have picked up? ITV HD is stream 10510 I believe.

[mrbleu500]

The guys that have seen it over on the DS forum are using PC Cards, so maybe it is not visible on ordinary receivers? Another grab:

Note: it seems to be broadcast in H.222

[pipino]

just wonder why always to pick up an ordinary channel from uk we have to sweat our ASS off!!!!!!fooking thing never gone thru my brains,,the area where i live(south east spain) ppl gone to extrems to pick up BBC channels i even saw 4.20metre monstre dish for that!!!!! and by the way thanx to British footprint restrictions the RUSSIAN MAFIA are cashing in big with MMDS system,i hope the British authority knows that Brits been extorted with big money to watch TV at home...are we still in europe ??? copyright ..Bolox...cheers

[Bbigfoot]

hi pipino,

Have not tryed yet, but you will have to (In Search channels) change Transmission
from (DVB to DVB-S2) and change modulation to(8PSK) that should light up your Box.

[Bbigfoot]

Hi pipino,

Sorry that din"t work out.
Have you checked the test times (I.E, 7.0pm till Midnight).

BF...

[zarquon]

The transmission is DVB-S and yah the stream is h222, no successful reception on FTA HD boxes yet as far as I know, if you check another of my screen grabs from there, the video has the private bit set which doesnt help.

V=3401 not 2401 and PCR is 3401 too you have to put sid 10510 ,i have it working on my dvbviewer but not Kathrein ,i get only Audio,just a quick comment about this signal i realy doute this will be the final frequency of ITVHD i think it will jump to ASTRA2D ...cheers

[zarquon]

With it being itv you can never tell, it's a waiting game to be honest, hopefully we'll know a little more after the bank holiday.

[scallywag]

I have UserTV 3401 but not video or audio at the mo.Great signal

[holmroad]

So just to recap, is Freq 11428 Elev Horiz S/R 27500 3/4 please - cos I cant even find it?:respect-067:

[dave859]

i think itv are going to do this to stop s** having half the euro2008 matches in HD , what better way of making freesat sell boxes than this . i hope im wrong as i have a paceHD box but its looking that only freesat hdboxes will get this channel.

[Tarzan]

Nice Signal you got there Tarzan - When in Motor setting on the 7100 - how to you change the continuous setting to say nudge -- so I can tweak my signal -- Seems on mine to be fixed on continuous --


ITV HD is testing in DVB-S Clear on 11426.00MHz, pol.H SR:27500 FEC:2/3 SID:10510 PID:3401[MPEG-4] /3402 English. H.222

All I get is Brit Shorts on that freq etc M8! In FRENCH!!:iamwithstupid:

[crabber]

Yes so do I on my Kathrein but I get it OK with SS2 card and dvbdream on PC.

[Bbigfoot]

Hi kennyboy,

To put pids into your (HD2000).
First Find all (V-pid)..(A-Pid).. (PMC) in other words
all the transponders needed. (*********, best)
Open (Formula 1.1 for HD).
open the Channel list you have uploaded to your (HD2000 STbox).
Goto a Channel thats not used on (28e).
Like a shoping channel, enter (ITV HD) Frequences, (Save).
Then if you know how to move channels in formuls, just move
to your choice.
Then upload your edited list . Done.

BF...

[holmroad]

Thanx M8 - but honestly thats no good at all with Technomates!:confused:

Go to the continuous and press the right arrow on the remote and it gives you 3 options, continuous , step and time...

Select step and then the no of steps...

[Tarzan]

How do you get to the continuous part -- as in the pic Press the Yellow button takes you over to the motore -- I want get to the continuous part

[Tarzan]

scroll down... use the down button on your remote and go to the continuous option... the once there, use the right left button

[applematt]

Yep thanks works -- Thanks Tarzan :D

[pipino]

what is the situation with Kathrein UFS910?? i get only audio on AAF1.3

[Tarzan]

I did try that but nothing happened! That channel isnt even there only Brit Thingy:mad:

I mean modify the values of an existing channel on that transponder

[Ronturner]

I have a Technomate 6900 and can't get anything except Brit Shorts.

Can anyone confirm what times transmissons are taking place and if anyone has picked up the HD broadcasts with a TM6900

Cant get it on 6900HD for some reason.:woohoo-022:

Go to the BBC HD channel and come back directly to the ITV HD channel....

[Bbigfoot]

Hi kennyboy,

ITV HD is only on the (Freesat HD Digital Box) and (ITV HD) is only transmitted in (h.222).
So No (Normal HD STB) will pick ITV HD up because they only receive (h.264).
We are out of luck.

BF...

[Bbigfoot]

Hi kennyboy,

Did this take place in (Fomula 1.1), It will have.
Did you change the Channel name at the same time to (ITV HD).
If you did not, it would look the same, and it will have taked a lot of
finding.
Where as a change of name will stand out in the list.
Well at least you can now add any Transponder changes yourself.

BF

[antmarco]

so are we saying that freesat will only work with there box because they will transmit all there channels in h222 ?

[xanadu]

so are we saying that freesat will only work with there box because they will transmit all there channels in h222 ?

Only ITV HD is exclusive to Freesat receivers so far.

Wait till launch day May 6th for confirmation that a normal HD receiver will still have problems getting ITV HD.

[kennyboy]

what is h222 and h264 what do tyay mean thanks

[pipino]

the strange thing on pcsat and dvbviewer i´v put H264 and i get video cristal clear ,also there is a member on this same topic with vantage HD receiver also has it ...so we still need to see the final signal to make our conclusion about the signal if its 100% on freesat boxes or not...regards

I really hope that the Technomate 6900 (&6800) can pick up these HD signals or that there will be a software upgrade if that is possible.

It would be a crying shame if a whole raft of HD channels is not available without the need to purchase yet another box. Maybe I will ring Technomate today to ask them.

[scallywag]

Something dead weird on the Passion.I have loaded the settings on 3 channals.On mine its channals 4500 to 4502. When I turn the receiver off when on one of the channals then back on I get no audio or sound. Turn to another then I get pic but no sound.
How soddin weird.I can either have sound or pic but not both at the moment.Nice pics of London at the moment.

[madgooner]

Hi has anyone managed to scan this channel onto the Ferguson HD8800 tried a manual scan can only get Brit Shorts

So No (Normal HD STB) will pick ITV HD up because they only receive (h.264).

BF...

I would have hoped that Sat providers would have specified STBs that allow different codecs to be loaded as an update. If the Sky HD and the FreeSat HD boxes aren't flexible that is almost a crime.

[mrbleu500]

From what I have been reading today, the reason for this current setup is temporary, with ITVHD being a metadata stream, as they can't justify giving it it's own transponder because it will only be active initially for specific events (mostly footy).

Also, no freesat boxes have yet to display ITVHD so maybe the use of H.222 is purely for the uplink test, and it will revert to H.264 when it goes live?

[pipino]

its clear being FTA HD programs as a concept they will have to make money out of it somehow so dont be surprised if they transmit with a special codec...etc ,simply to make ppl buy freesat boxes ,and may be few months or years down the line we will have to buy a cam upgrade to simply use it with smartcard as paying sub, the fooking thing always end up in the same fooking hole ,making us pay more and more!!!, look what happen in germany 2HDTV channels survived only few weeks after transmiting with FTA HD ,aparently is very expensive using HD technology thru sats now days ,so the future of HDTV will be paytv ..

[crabber]

@pipino you really cheer us up! first card sharing will become impossible with box pairing, then we will have to pay to watch "freesat"
Let's look on the bright side, at least the provider we all love to hate may not be able to see ITV HD on their boxes either, and at last they wont be encrypting channels like 4 and 5 etc.

[pipino]

well i´v been realistic m8 , i follow up the sceen very closely ,and everyday i see new things indicating what i said above ..i will remind you again may be one day ,,still hope not ;)

Using my Clarke Ctech HD5000 (cousin of the TM6900) I can get the audio.
Have to use the channel editor on a PC to add the extra channel for that frequency and download vis RS232.
With VPID set to NOT 3401 then I get audio, as soon as I set VPID to the CORRECT value of 3401 then get audio for a couple of seconds & then warning message of no Video/Audio.

Looks like something in the video stream is fooling most of the HD STB.

I just tried it as well and just get 1 TV channel called "Brit Shorts

Hi kennyboy,

So No (Normal HD STB) will pick ITV HD up because they only receive (h.264).
We are out of luck.
BF...

As I posted in the Freesat thread, the spec of the Humax FoxsatHD only lists h.264 so I'm beginning to think the rumours of h.222 are a red herring.

It'll be interesting to see if a Sly HD box can access ITV HD through the add channels function when it is fully active but if ITV want to fcuk Sly they could always use a non-standard SR.

[bonovox]

As I put in another thread, I think ITV are not allowing sly to add it to their epg which makes it unavailable through the sly box, only maybe through add channels function. There isn't any solid news that suggests ONLY Freesat boxes will be able to receive ITV HD, though. Just cos a normal HD receiver can't receive the test signal doesn't mean it won't be available when they fully launch or when they have HD programmes available. Am I right in saying that even the Humax Foxsat Freesat HD receiver is not able to receive the ITV HD test signal?

[zarquon]

As I posted in the Freesat thread, the spec of the Humax FoxsatHD only lists h.264 so I'm beginning to think the rumours of h.222 are a red herring.

Well the video packets last week were certainly encapsulated that way, however its more than possible some parameters have changed i'll take a closer look in the morning.

Hi, Does anyone know if it's possible to get this new ITV HD Chn on a Humax HDCI 2000?

I'm currently running Version:15 so that could be a problem?
However, I understand that if I go back to Ver:07 then I might get both Chn:4 HD and possibly ITV:3? I just require confirmation of this, I have done a rescan today and I can get the French Prog called "Brit Shorts"! But no ITV HD.
Rgds, TB.

Hi Tony baker,

The HDCI2000 is not able to pickup the (ITV HD) signal.
Your box will receive (h.264) signals, but They (ITV) are transmitting in (h.222).
Thats out of the range of most (HD STBs).

[Gone_Fishing]

I don't think it will be long before you see it on other hd receivers that are patchable, I don't know much
about H.222 standard what I do know is ITV HD is still using the h.264 codec even though its flagged H.222

If you read the speck of any of the freesat recievers they are all MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 no mention of H.222

whats the odds they change something so only real freesat boxes work
when they start showing programmes

[pugwash57]

The ITV have to keep there options open as they may want to sell ITV-HD to Sky as well, so its on the BBC-Freesat & Sky EPG's.

So I doubt if they would muck about with codecs which has been speculated.

As Sky boxes are so limited in options I am sure its an easy task to keep Sky out.

Also I am sure they also want many STB manufacturers to be able to join the Freesat-EPG standard, so strange codecs are a no-no.

stick a usb key in your TM...

Press the usb button and there should be a red button option...

"upload ndf file" or something. Do that, then pull out the usb key and stick it in a pc.

You'll have a file that should be a .ndf file.

COPY THAT FILE SOMEWHERE SAFE! (as a backup just in case)

Now look in the Technomate software section and download a proggy called NDFEditor_Ver158.exe.

run that and open the ndf file.

You'll find that it's a copy of your channel list. You should see a list of Satellites.


Click on the Astra2/Eurobird one (or whatvere 28.2 is in your list) and you'll have a list of transponders...

Go down to 11428 and you'll see britshorts and 10510 etc...

Select 10510:

Change the name to whatever you want (ITV HD)

And input the following:

Service id: 0x290e
Service type: tv
PMT PID [leave blank]
PCR PID: 0x0d49
Video PID: 0x4d49
Audio PID: 0x0d4a
Check Mark AC3

Lastly and most importantly check the box, "Don't Update Video / Audio PIDs"

Save it, and then whack your usb back into your TM box.

click on usb and you should see the .ndf file you've edited. Select it and it'll say something about what you want to update.

Choose Normal and it'll overwrite your channel list with the modified one.

Then go back and find ITV HD or whatever you called it.

This should work, but as I've stressed before I haven't tested it.......................

cheers archie

[zarquon]

They were running an upscaled simulcast of itv1 earlier, but are now back to the chiswick park testcard, the channel has been running pretty much 24/7 with a promo/test loop, with the odd drop to black level while they change stuff over.

[archiesat]

cheers for that m8




archie

[holmroad]

Hi M8 - yes it WAS on my 6900HD as 10510 from start - but still wouldnt open ITV HD - so I thort maybe its ONLY for 6800's & not 6900's - but am told I am wrong elsewhere!
So when I get home I will delete current 10510 and rescan it back to see what happens - wish me luck:respect-067:

hi this how it worked for me.open humax formula editor load file provided with itv hd channel.find itv hd in the ch list then minimize the editor.open up another humax formula editor and upload your own ch list this takes some time.on your own ch list go to bbc hd or ch4 hd.left click this line when highlighted right click and you should see provider transponder etc.select transponder and change bbc hd or ch4 hd freq to the itv hd freq (11427 27500).

now open first editor and find itv hd line with all pids info name etc minimize first editor again.open second editor and find the line you were editing transponder 11427 27500 and change the pids name etc to the ones from first editor.these can be edited manually at the middle left of your screen in white boxes.remember to save after editing.

download saved ch list pc to stb.

remember to rescan for bbc hd or ch4 hd as 1 of these have been edited to itv hd now.

hope this can be of any help

CH4 HD does not clear, or do you know how to make it clear with the latest firmware for the HDCI2000.

I now have picture, but no sound on Topfield TF7700HSCI.

Well, I'm a bit closer! :sifone:

Used TopSet to alter 11428H transponder to DVB-S2 8PSK, SR 27500 FEC 2/3, also added TP Stream ID of 2315. Modified an existing HD channel to match the ITV HD transponder and SID VPID APID PMT PCR.

[sparky_dog]

Can now confirm ITV HD all working now on Topfield TF7700HSCI, sound and video.:party:

Using TopSet...

Alter Astra2 11428H transponder to SR 27500, DVB-S2 8PSK. FEC 2/3

Modify the additional BBC HD channel labelled '6945', set parameters VPID 3401, APID 3402, PCR 3401, PMT 3400, SID 10510. Note that APID changes to 11594 for some reason...

Select correct (modified) TP, I had a choice of three at 11428H, middle one was correct one, but select by trial and error.


Sound came on after around 30 sec. or so, comes on straight away now when I select channel. Only other slight problem I can see - seems to freeze after around 20 sec., just for a couple of seconds, but then perfect after that. Been working now for 10-15 minutes without a glitch. :D


Update: Sorry chaps, I made an error in the data above, APID 3402 of course.:blush5:

Still working perfectly, no sound or pic problems.

[dxdy]

dont have signal with dvb-s2 tp.... with dvb-s have but not working...

[sparky_dog]

dont have signal with dvb-s2 tp.... with dvb-s have but not working...

You're right dxdy, when I go into 'Service Search' now, I can only get a signal with DVB-S. However, those are the settings I put into TopSet, and it's working...:)

It's very strange that... I'm sure I saw a signal by DVB-S2 8PSK, FEC 2/3 before I doctored the TP settings...

[dxdy]

i set dvb-s2 with top set, load to topfield but still no signal....

[scallywag]

Might be using a narrow beem to stop/hinder those outside UK getting it without a big fook off dish

[sparky_dog]

i set dvb-s2 with top set, load to topfield but still no signal....

In TopSet, do you have a choice of 11428H transponders when entering the channel settings? It only worked after I had chosen the correct one (of 3) on mine.

[dxdy]

here?

[sparky_dog]

here?

Yes, I had three 11428H in the list. Only the one I altered earlier worked, well I assume it was the one I altered...

[dxdy]

and this DVB-S2? can you send me your settings?

[nuku22]

and me too

[sparky_dog]

and this DVB-S2? can you send me your settings?

Do you mean the .std to load into TopSet? No problem. I can't attach it, so you'll have to PM me an email address to send it to.

I''ve not had the Topfield long, so you might be able to make better sense of it. ;)

[sparky_dog]

@dxdy - .std file sent, hope it works...

@nuku22 - your email addy was blanked by the board censor. See what dxdy makes of it, perhaps he can post something up.

[dxdy]

working!!!! :) thx a lot

[dxdy]

when sending wail with PM add spaces, for exampla:

name.name2 @ mail . com

[sparky_dog]

All sorted, I've got nuku22's email address. :)

Glad it works for you dxdy, happy to be of help for once!:D

[dxdy]

manual editing in my list no luck :(

but this working:
- first deleted TP from my list...
- then copy TP from your list and paste in my list
- copy ITV HD from your list and paste in my list and after upload working!!!

[sparky_dog]

I told you it was working! :D

I just followed the process I posted earlier.

Brilliant. Works perfectly on Humax HDC!2000. Thanks for the methodology.:respect-044:

[sparky_dog]

I also have to thank archiesat, that's the basic method I used to get it onto the Topfield.:bravo-009:

[jassie]

try L53_14_May_0530_(DC15_1[1].1.1).zip for motor
and other for fixed

I don't understand this chap, am I suppose to run this software onto the receiver via the seriel to be able to see ITV HD, so I can't just make some alterations ota on hotbird or edit the download options, because I have no seriel port, sorry for being a total thicy:respect-010:

[TheBadger]

What receiver are you using? Most receivers can have individual channel parameters entered manually. So you should be able to get ITV HD as long as your receiver is one which can handle the transport stream. You can get the necessary parameters from Lyngsat or similar.

There's something peculiar about the ITV HD stream which prevents it being seen by most receivers, even if you input all the parameters manually. I have no idea what the problem is, but firmware updates have appeared for certain receivers to enable them to scan the channel in.

[jassie]

I am using the Humax 2000, but can't use a computer to update it because of the seriel, I played about with the pids etc yesterdaym but didn't get anywhere in the end:seeya:

[dog-man]

You can get a USB to serial adapter which works well.

I use on on a laptop to update my HDCI2000.

I notice they are showing some programming tonight, Emmerdale was on earlier...:001_07:

[cumber46]

Coronation street on now,program contents sh-- picture quality perfect humax 2000 hope they show more, also noticed adverts in HD and different to analogue

[TheBadger]

ITV are using a particular type of encoding which is supposed to make it available only on a dedicated Freesat box. However there are about five makes of HD receiver which can handle the transport stream. Two which come immediately to mind are the Fortec Passion and the Technomate 6900. As long as the chipsets can support the necessary firmware, I'm sure more makes of reciever will get updated firmware.

[bonovox]

Yeah thats something I can't wait for, Coronation Street in HD!:20:
To be honest I think ITV1 is one of the worse channels on terrestrial tv and I only ever watch it when they have football on.

fingers crossed it lasts itv now showing the football in HD

Yes you do it when on ITV1.

We have to wait until their next HD broadcast for it to work, probably Euro 2008?

I watched the 2nd half of the Champions League final OK, but found the sound to be around 1 second ahead of the picture. Someone else said he had to tune out & in again to correct this.

I guess that's why it still testing & not a proper service.

The sound sync problem was due to the very bug ridden Humax Freesat box, as other owners were saying when they reset the box it worked ok.

[dog-man]

I think there is an option within the HDCI2000 to alter sound synch.

I have never needed it on mine.

[techmate]

on technomate 6000hd model, change audio to pcm. works fine

[dobrocop]

if some of you have a passion hd stb then go to the fortecstar site and download the latest firmware to a usb stick then load it in your passion you will then have itv hd + epg compatability with Freesat broadcasts,...also for those with tm hd stb`s there are several ways to load itv hd but so far no epg on tm`s,..try other sat sites,...cheers,.dobrocop.

the old passion came good in the end before diablo v2.3 and itv HD was never on

fingers crossed mine should be here tomorrow :respect-059:

[Dreamlife]

Iv'e heard ITV HD starts this Saturday.

[bonovox]

For the Euro Champs. But is it staying like it is? I can't get it on my Kathrein as it is, I get sound and no picture.

[madgooner]

Got the same problem with my Ferguson HD8800 also. Got a choice come the football i have managed to get the picture-no sound, or sound without picture Mmm its a hard one, last time when the Champions League was on i used the picture and sound from a digibox only problem you new they had scored before they shot on the screen!
Ive looked at other forums and looked at the same model under different manufactures eg Arion, Homecast.
Anyone got a answer?

[peteoc]

Can't help with your receiver, however the answer to your sound problem is a dab radio with pause.

I've got one that I use when the commentary is not in english.

You increment the pause in single seconds until it lines up with the picture.

[DARKMAN]

i fix on DARKBOX HD is well

[JURG321]

Thank You Very Much Darkman

[xanadu]

For the Euro Champs. But is it staying like it is? I can't get it on my Kathrein as it is, I get sound and no picture.

Yes, I think staying the same format for non-Freesat receivers, unless you get a firmware update.

[bonovox]

:o10:

Oh well, us kathrein owners shall have to watch HD Suisse instead for the HD footy.
