Thanks for that. If the programmes are subtitled I'll have a look myself. When does RTE International start? I remember Tara TV and it was a decent channel

S4C, like Five, is on a COM mux (MuxA - replacing an Anytime stream, Nuts and a shopping channel). Post-DSO, all PSB channels must be on a PSB mux, so S4C will have to move.

Here's the not-that-interesting cap from the above channel. Basically it just fades on and off whilst playing BBC Alba radio.

On both my TV and PC display it Iooks more like a paler sky blue instead of the deeper blue shown above - perhaps though, it's just a difference in our personal picture settings?

I don't think they need to be altered - just leave them at the default selections.

Irish Gaelic is different than Scottish Gaelic. They're mutually unintelligible.
