E4

Well done! It's a great investment.
One of the best purchases I've ever made. Really good piece of kit. I love mine to bits! Countless functions, and you can get Xtraview and um, some other channel, for free with a bit of tweaking - not saying any more.

Amen to that! Flirted with the Hauppauge range of Digital TV cards but NOT a patch on this beast - have the USB2 version for my laptop and when I finally got the right card to add USB2 to my laptop it worked lovely...love the fact you can record the whole transport stream too!

That channel reminds me of the WI calendar with all those handily placed objects...

Still, that's off topic so back to E4 , E5 (see what I did there) and the rest

I have a Nebula DigiTV to, absolutely great piece of kit.
I can’t wait for E4 lol, always wanted sky just for that one channel really (And possibly sky one, but that’s hardly going to come to freeview!).

I see that on Channel 39 (E4+1) they are currently looping a selection of E4 idents.

My brother read somewhere that on Freeview it will be on 39 only not 14.

But surely Freeview isn't only going to have the +1 version only. He did refresh the box & channel 14 DIDN'T come up. It's one of those old Daewoo ones when Freeview first came out

Yes, possibly the surrealest idents ever made. Loving the one with the old man on the lawnmower.

Where are Channel 4 getting the bandwidth to broadcast E4 AND E4+1 from? I didnt realise there was so much spare bandwidth floating about!

Will the E4+1 service be availalbe across the whole country? I have rescanned and it has only picked up E4 in Wales (but its black atm)

E4 will be available sometime tomorrow morning after Ch14''s been released by Top-Up TV at 0400. Until it's released it's still encrypted and some boxes don't see scrambled channels.

Programmes are supposed to be starting according to a DSF contributor at 1400.

Chris.

I have the original Pace 'half moon' freeview box. Rescanned today - recieved 39: E4+1.

I also have the Daewoo box (Setpal etc...) - rescanned on Monday and recieved E4+1, 705, 805.

MUX 2 is split between the ITV companies, Channel 4 and Teletext.UK.
ITV and channel 4 have something like 49% each and Teletext have the remaining 2%.

Considering that ITV cram ITV1, ITV2, ITV3 and the ITV News channel into their allocated space, there is ample space for C4 E4 and E4+1

Strange . . . even after retuning my Freeview box, channel 14 still shows me a TUTV promo slide . . .
