BBC did a wonderful job covering the games in China
I was one of the lucky people able to watch it in HD and analoge having purchased a HUMAX HDCI-2000 I was able to compare the picture quality from each transmission, watched on my HD ready tv, the difference between the two
was hard to notice, and all coming down my twenty two year old LOW LOSS
cable embeded in the walls of my flat The only thing I could notice the nets across the Tennis Courts the pattern could be clearly seen.
BBC I wish you well, keep up the wonderful progress

Post 51 – “Will the launch of the new Astra 1M satellite help capacity problems with the UK satellites?
According to various sites, the successful launch of 1M allows Astra SES to relocate Astra 2C to 28.2° East “to provide additional capacity to meet the strong demand in the UK and Irish markets”.

No. Astra 2C is already at 28E – and has been for about a year. All the scrambled five channels currently use it. Astra 1M will be replacing Astra 1H at 19E. 1H will be redeployed to 23E.

I hope all the HD enthusiasts are making the most of 90 minutes of Prince Charles at 60 tonight.

Alan in reply again to subtitles, on the Humax receiver subtitles are available by pressing subtitles then pressing up to teletext or just text, then punching in number 888 on the test channel “6335″, or with a normal FTA receiver using text/videotext. (don’t know about the other freesat models)

Also Andy, Freesat don’t find space for these channels – they’re all already being broadcast long before Freesat appeared. All Freesat allows you to do is access them through a shiny new EPG.
