Scouse Exile Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Those of you with Sky HD boxes trying to watch ITV HD or STV HD via other channels will have noticed they are no longer available. You can still get UTV HD on 11.053 H, SR 22000 FEC 5/6  If you're not sure how to sort this here is a guide.  On your Sky Remote - press SERVICES  Go To Options  Go To Add Chnls  Highlight Frequency and type in 11.053  Highlight Polarisation and using the arrow button change to H  Highlight Symbol Rate and using the arrow button change to 22.0  Highlight FEC and using the arrow button change to 5/6  Press the yellow button  When search stops, using arrow button scroll down to UTVHD  Press The Yellow Button  Press Select  To view the Channel press services or tv guide go to options - other channels. It will look empty, but press the down arrow on your remote and you will see utvhd. Highlight it, again using the down arrow, and press select. There you have it. As I write Spurs v Dnipro in glorious HD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jambogaz1968 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 What if you have a Skybox F5 ? Â Â not that I've got one, just wondering Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scouse Exile Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 Neither have I, and I don't know the answer. STV HD or any ITV1 HD channel has never been officially available on Sky in Scotland . Something to do with contractual problems I think. Crazy.

Hugh Phamism Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 UTV = Ulster TV, I think. Â Â Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scouse Exile Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 Are you still not able to view in HD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real Maroonblood Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Â They keep changing the frequency either that that are blocking them as I just updated it last week and it's already blocked. I would have thought that STV HD would be a normal channel on Sky like Virgin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sexton Hardcastle Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Isn't it just channel 178 across the board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boris Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Won't be an issue soon enough, Sky just agreed a deal with ITV which includes HD and a new ITV Encore channel! Â Is there really anything on ITV1 that is actually worth watching again? Â Football coverage aside, ITV1 is, IMO, terrible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
