[DrAkO_1982]

Looks like they will add ALL the SuperChannel...

And i try to understand why they only put the switch at ON for RDS HD...not TVA HD and TQS HD.

 

[scrooloose]

Drako, how many times can you ask the same question?

-Mike

 

[DrAkO_1982]

I will stop to ask the same question when i will see TVAHD and TQSHD in my guide.

Nothing is force you to read my post !

 

[just_syl]

TVA and TQS are worthless, why bother. Instead of pressuring ExpressVu, you should ask them why they are not broadcasting OTA, especially TVA (which has seemingly no plan to broadcast OTA in the next year).

 

[Derwin0]

I will stop to ask the same question when i will see TVAHD and TQSHD in my guide.

Do you have the $2 french networks pack? If not, then you won't see most of the french channels in the guide. And you probably won't see them unless you get the French Networks pack, or have the account set to a french account.

 

[Derwin0]

TVA and TQS are worthless, why bother. Instead of pressuring ExpressVu, you should ask them why they are not broadcasting OTA, especially TVA (which has seemingly no plan to broadcast OTA in the next year).

Neither does Global
As for being worthless, I'm sure many French speaking people will appreciate them.

 

[just_syl]

I'm french and I find them worthless because they almost have no HD stuff to show.

As for Global, it's a shame that they have been on the air for more than two years and have not yet begin to broadcast OTA. TVA and TQS shouldn't behave like them...

 

[SJ44]

Even if they don't carry much HD content; in HD, the SD content is of a better quality.
Also these are national networks and are must carry.

[MCIBUS]

723 GMA says avaliable. What channel is that?
856 HSTHD is that possiblely History HD?

 

[kloraff]

856 HSTHD is the French specialty channel Historia in HD.

Also, Telelatino Spanish (699) and the SuperChannel stations (326-329) are now showing up in the guide.

 

[DrAkO_1982]

Just to add to digiblur uplink, they move channel TVHD (855) to 864 position, probably to uplink Vrak.TV HD on channel 855 (what they announced on channel 864...six new frenchs HD coming soon).l

 

[SJ44]

Lots of 3 HD channels per transponder now.
Let's hope there won't be too much degradation.

[DrAkO_1982]

SNHD2 ? Rogers Sportsnet HD 2 ?!

I think this is a temporary situation (3 HD per TP), this will change when Nimiq 4 arrives at spring 2008.

 

[Satellite Expert]

The arrival of Nimiq 4 adds ZERO new transponders for Expressvu. What they hope to be able to do is move to 8PSK on HD at that time. At the same time, the N4 footprint may spell the end of Expressvu HD for most southern subs

 

[DrAkO_1982]

The five french HD channels (854, 855, 856, 861 and 862) are now available.
