Hi there everyone.
I got a Humax Foxsat HD box for xmas. All is fine, tuned in to lots of lovely channels and no problems. Getting BBC HD and some other HD channel when tuned in on the none freesat mode.
My only problem is, that when an ITV HD program is being broadcast and I press the red button, the foxsat goes to the channel choice menu and not to the ITV HD broadcast?
Anyone any ideas as to why?
Thank you

I'm guessing that your'e pressing it when there's bu99er all showing on ITV HD.

Check the Freesat Timetable for ITV HD on their website.

Are you trying to watch ITV HD,in the non-Freesat mode?
If so its not possible.
Press the red button,when there is the red prompt only for a HD programme.
It will say something like Press RED to watch ITV HD,and as Robbo says there's vey limited programmes available just keep your eyes on the listings:

Also make sure you have an English postcode entered.
