Title: ITV1 on Sky HD
Post by: kinboshi on September 16, 2009, 04:30:55 PM
Not sure if everyone's aware of this (I wasn't), but you can manually add ITV1 HD so you can view it on your Sky HD box.  Apparently, there aren't many things on the channel at the moment, but the Champions League and International footy is broadcast in HD and I'm guessing some other sport and some dramas/films?  The other problem with it, is that you can't record or pause the manually added channel.  Not sure why this is the case, or if there are any plans for it to be placed in the EPG as a standard channel any time soon.

Anyway - this is how you do it:

Good work Boshi.

Also found out the PS3 has the iPlayer on it now too! 

Happy as Larry (not the lobster)

meh, me too, is this new menu only?  My mates have had the new one for about 6 months or more now.  They live either side of me but I'm not done!  What's with that?

The new epg is being rolled out by box make with the oldest Thomson first,then Pace,Samsung and Amstrad.
The Thomson's got it months ago,but it was a bit buggy.Sky decided the problem was down to the Thomson boxes, which have a tendency to fall over after about 18 months anyway,so they sent it out to the Pace boxes and it was still buggy.
So after about 2 months of tweaking a batch of Samsung boxes got it 2 weeks ago,sky will see how many complaints they get this time before activating some more Samsungs then onto the Amstrads.

Cheers for this. New menu is getting about a bit now so might be a useful bump.
