    I really don't understand why anyone who doesn't want the sports channels is paying Sky...

    I think for a lot of people its the user interface they feel is easy to use with the irish channels 1st and the record function.

    VM Four HD will launch on Channel 160 on the Sky Ireland EPG on the 27th of April. It will be available on 159 on Sky Glass/Stream.

    What freesat box are using? I'm looking for a good alternative to the Skybox - which has series link & 7 day guide.

    I need to give another warning about discussion on this thread - please keep it to channel label, tuning details, Sky and Freesat LCNs please. Plenty of other threads to discuss hardware (and after a month I’ve quite a bit to say on the Freesat hardware myself, but this isn’t the place for it).

    Zorro2566 gets a 48 hour ban for ignoring the post literarily one post up.



  • Registered Users Posts: 8,061 ✭✭✭irishfeen


    Doesn’t make any sense that this wouldn’t be on 117, why are sky not using these numbers in Ireland I wonder?

    Irishfeen and eguiney also take 48 hour bans. Sorry but the memory of moving those 200 odd posts is still fresh in my mind, and the warnings are literally just above.

    I hope I'm in the right thread for this news, CH4 HD ( correct region for Postcode ), has finally moved from 126 to 104 today on Freesat.



  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Yes noticed the change on mine, nice to have HD versions of BBC, ITV, Ch4 and Ch5 together on the epg now.



  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 11,720 Mod ✭✭✭✭icdg


    Galtee boy take a 48 hour ban, Zorro2566 take a one week ban and a final warning, next time it’s permanent.

    Im going to keep doing this until people start getting the message.

    Right, we’ll try that again, I though category bans carried through to forums but apparently not, so those banned yesterday have been given 1 day forum bans in satellite taking into account yesterday.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,808 ✭✭✭Charles Slane


    Virgin Four HD has now appeared on channel 160 on the Irish Sky EPG.



  • Registered Users Posts: 650 ✭✭✭Mister Gooey


    Any idea why Virgin Media 3 is not available on Sky in HD?



  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 11,720 Mod ✭✭✭✭icdg


    48 hour ban for Mr Gooey

    How many times do I have to do this?

    whats the criteria for this tread?.. am I gone for 47 hours?



  • Registered Users Posts: 5,494 ✭✭✭swoofer


    while reading this move your eyes to the top of the screen and you will see criteria. here is a few pics. The second shows the heading when you are on satellite forum. As the saying goes it means exactly what it says in the thread😂




  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 11,720 Mod ✭✭✭✭icdg


    Banned, you asked for it, and it’s a rule across Boards that there’s no discussion of moderation. Swoofer you can take a 48 hour ban too for backseat moderation. Cloudhopper19 edited his post and can escape with a warning for now.

    However, for those new to the parish, to cut a long strong short, the thread got derailed by a disscussion on the BBC move to HD, to the tune of 200 posts. That was a big job to split the thread and I did so. In order so that there’s no repeat, there is now a zero tolerance policy when it comes to taking this thread off topic. There’s a warning in the thread title and on thread warning too, so I don’t think there’s any excuses. As a general rule I rarely ban people at all but there’s a really good reason why this policy is being adopted in this thread and a zero tolerance policy is what the people who wanted the threads split were asking for.

    Edit: the Admins have deleted the post to which this mod note referred and for clarity I am now deleting it.

    The warning about closing the thread of the rules (which were put in place for good reasons) cannot be obeyed remains.

    Sligo23 banned and is being reported to the admins as a suspect rereg.

    There are a sum total of five (5) banned users across the entire of Cable & Digital at present and two of those bans are being lifted today. I really don’t ban people much at all. I tried to enforce a rule in this thread that was being asked for by the regular posters on it. Regretfully it appears people are not willing to play by the rules.

    As it’s clear this thread is just going to become a magnet for these type of spam posts it’s now being closed. As an alternative feel free to start new threads if there’s a channel launch of note,
