.... it might be an idea to wait until new year as saorview are expected to do a deal with freesat, what this means there will be a new box that will have saorview and freesat plus internet, ie rte player combined. ...
....It seems like it should be possible - surely the technology should work regardless of the signal source? But maybe the fact that saorview and freeview are two different sources might make things complicated?..
- Analogue to Digital Changeover (DSO, ASO)
- Saorview: The new Irish Free Digital Terrestrial TV service replacing existing four Analogue channels. TV via an Aerial
- Saorsat: The Free copy of Saorview via Satellite dish for people that can't get Aerial Signal
- Digital Dividend
- Freeview: The UK / N.I. Free Digital Terrestrial TV service replacing existing five Analogue channels
- Freesat: The Free UK service similar to Freeview, but received via a Dish.
I can not understand why Sky dropped the ITV channels to give us Irish channel on the same numbers when we can already get them on Saorview. we can set them up manually but they do not work as normal channels is timer, search etc
Sorry if I am missing the obvious here by the way.
....I wonder how many people will be willing to pay 300 plus the installation costs
I have 2 Sky boxes,the old one without a card can get all of the UTV channels as normal, the new box with the card cannot receive any UTV channel only Irish channels in their placeSky had the Irish channels listed long before SaorView came along. There's still a very significant portion of the population who don't have facilities required to receive SaorView. Sky include what the broadcasters pay them to include in the EPG, ITV & TV3 worked the market/ content share deal out themselves.
