HD channels using TT1501 on n*l - Techwatch Support Forums: Digital & Satellite TV, FTA, Cable, Computers, Mobile Phones, Apple and General Tech Forums

Hi all,

is there a kind of definitive list as to what HD channels we cable users should be able to receive? (n*l 6887 area)
My eurovox downstairs doesn't pick up any. Well none that it can unscramble anyway (obviously i suppose, as its probably not supported).
But my htpc with TT C-1501 can get BBC HD, but that's all i've found.
Are there any others?
If anyone has any more channel info for my area (6887) that they could give me that would be great, thanks.
I'm assuming it doesn't matter which prog you use; i use MP, but had BBC Hd on progdvb and dvbdream too.

Cheers

BBC HD is the only HD channel VM are streaming at the moment. You're right that the Eurovox won't pick it up (you need an HD-capable box, such as the V+ ones).

Personally wish VM would pull their fingers out and give us a couple more HD channels. At least let us pay for Sly Movies HD channels (or not pay, as the case may be) but they only broadcast those channels in SD!

Course, maybe they're leaving it so long so that by the time there's more HD channels I'll be able to afford more than a 32 inch 720p LCD so I can appreciate the difference better!

Anyone know if VM intend on adding more HD content anytime soon?
