Freeview changes
Create & Craft is moving frequency on Wed 26th February. It's currently 7am-10pm on COM5.
Source: https://twitter.com/RXTVlog/status/1230975343634386945 The space vacated by Hochanda when it decided it could afford 24hrs is my guess as to where it's going. 7pm-7am is currently free on SDN. |
Re: Freeview changes
Here is the up to date list of space on Freeview being unused.
-Old Hochanda slot on SDN (7pm to 7am only) -Old TBN UK slot on COM5 -Old TJC slot on COM5 -Old 5Spike slot on COM6 All information right as of January 8th. ---------- Post added at 20:14 ---------- Previous post was at 20:07 ---------- I think the following may happen on Freeview -Hochanada may move to Sewing Street slot. Both Sewing Street and Jewellery Maker may use other slot re Jewellery Maker broadcasts as far as I know 8am to 10pm so can fix into Create and Craft slot. This post is the views of Media Boy who do not work for any of the channels listed in this post. ---------- Post added at 20:32 ---------- Previous post was at 20:14 ---------- Quote:

The space Sewing Quarter is vacating isn't an ideal time of day, so maybe PBS America will expand into it, since they share it already. |
Re: Freeview changes
Jewellery Maker has now confirmed what is going on from Thursday.
Jewellery Maker will be on Channel 73 from 8am to 1pm on Freeview SD. Sewing Street will broadcast from 8am before Jewellery Maker takes over at 1pm to 10pm on Freeview HD Channel 74. Source: Jewellery Maker on Facebook. |
Re: Freeview changes
I did wonder about Channel 73. And that clarifies that a free permanent multiplex position isn't being used. Many thanks Media Boy.

Re: Freeview changes
I have yet to check this on my own TV, but via info from @ukdtt on Twitter.
Create & Craft has moved to COM4, presumably to the 7pm-7am space left by Hochanda cutting its hours. Channel number remains same. Now70s has launched in the vacated C&C space (7am-10pm) on COM5 but on Channel 78. Now90s which shared with C&C on COM5 during 5am-7am has been removed. Now90s basically was renamed Now70s, then moved time and channel number on the same stream. CCXTV (basically a spinoff of the C&C shopping channel) has launched on COM5 on Channel 95. I think it's taken the 5am-7am part of the stream Now90s vacated, but have yet to confirm this. Jewellery Maker moves to Ch73 and takes the COM6 8am-1pm slot Shopping Quarter replaces Jewellery Maker on Ch74 COM7 and will show a mix of Sewing Street and Jewellery Maker. |

Re: Freeview changes
They only just added the extra (17th) stream for TJC on SDN. I can't see why they'd be insane enough to add another...yet I can see it on SDN when it would be off-air if it was sharing Hochanda's stream.
I'm surprised MB. ---------- Post added at 16:44 ---------- Previous post was at 16:41 ---------- Quote:

SDN is own by ITV. So if they wanted to ITV can launch an full time ITV3 +1 channel on Freeview with ITV4 +1 coming on Freeview at 9pm using where ITV3 +1 broadcasts right now. |

Wouldn't be surprised to see another channel crammed into D3&4 now though. And since Arqiva maintains them all, we could be seeing more on multiple other multiplexes. Though I shudder at the possible picture quality implications. |

Re: Freeview changes
Digital Bit Rate is reporting that COM4 has got 2.0 Mp/s free on "PID null" But Channels are running at time of posting up to 1.8 Mp/s so that make room for an 19th stream to launch.
Info down at Bitrate graph on the following link. http://www.digitalbitrate.com/dtv.ph...ive=46&lang=en |
