[Mickey Pearce]

Weds 03 April 07

Most of the channels have been updated already. The ones that start later may still show old EPG info e.g. Sky Movies 1 etc. Wait until these come on air later to do another scan of those frequencies.

EPG Channel name and transmission hours

Sky Movies 1 = Sky Movies Comedy
Sky Movies 2 = Sky Movies Action / Thriller
Sky Movies 3 = Sky Movies Family
Sky Movies 4 = Sky Movies Sci Fi / Horror
Sky Movies 5 = Sky Movies Classics
Sky Movies 6 = Sky Movies Indie
Sky Movies 7 = Sky Movies Modern Greats
Sky Movies 8 = Sky Movies Drama
Sky Cinema 1 = Sky Movies Premier
Sky Cinema 2 = Sky Movies Premier +1


SM9 Gone for all Sky and VM customers
SM10 Gone for all Sky and VM customers
Sky Cinema 1 Gone for all Sky and VM customers
Sky Cinema 2 Gone for all Sky and VM customers

Sky Movies Premiere 16.00 to 02.00 (10 hours)

Edit: Thurs 04 April 07

On "VM" they have had another shuffle about of some of the film & sport & general channels today. Pesky little bleeders.

Channels affected were;

Sky Modern
Sky Comedy
Sky Action
Sky Premiere +1

Also affected were;

Eurosport 1
Sky Sports 3
Sky Sports X
Bloomberg
Playhouse Disney
Kiss

If you do a rescan, these channels will [should] appear as "new" channels appended to the end of your channel listings. You will have to move them to your current channel positions.

Hope this helps.

Hi Folks,
Recently purchased a nokia dbox2 , all working great, the only slight hitch is that all Sky channels requires a pin to be entered as it shows these channels broadcost 12,15 and 18 certificate movies so you will need to enter your pin to watch . There does not seem to be a way of doing this with the nokia. Any help much appreciated.

Regards D.

All the Movie channels have 2 streams, the first with the proper channel name have the PIN screen. The second has "Hid" at the end of the channel name and that has the programming. You do not need to enter a PIN, simply tune to the "Hid" channel.

I have found all the "Hid" channels are exactly where the previous film channels were, the others were found by the sectionsd (background) scan

Hid - is short for hidden - the whole name of the channel wil not fit.

Anyone have a full list, or perhaps we could have an editable list on the gmail. Obviously the movies and sports etc are easily picked out, but what about those not so aptly named..
keep up the good work all.
