Re: ITV HD programmes

The printed edition of Radio Times usually states "Simulcast in HD"
e.g.
Saturday 20/09/08 10.15pm The Guru(Film)
Sunday 21/09/08 9pm Agatha Christie's Poirot

BTW - I hesitate to say this but should this not be asked in the Freesat section
Well, that's me banned

Re: ITV HD programmes

I saw a web page a week or two ago with reviews of the week's ITV HD programmes - but I can't find it now, and of course ITV itself is useless!
There are other ITV threads in here but I did consider posting in Freesat then decided this is more general.

Re: ITV HD programmes

It seems that the DigiGuide service has 'User Channel' add-on for ITV-HD

http://community.digiguide.com/defau...ItemID=313&t=2

EDIT:

Just noticed that even without the add-on HD is shown on programme details

OK - I hadn't looked that far down the list of forums!

The mod who moved it should have let me know though.

Re: ITV HD programmes

Quite right Fernandez, and thanks - but I find the site's font a little easier to read than RT's minute "simulcast" reference.

Yes, because ITV HD is not Freesat exclusive as usually claimed. It is really Sky HD exclusive.

You can get it on most (all?) non Freesat HD boxes other than Sky's.

Re: ITV HD programmes

It's fine on my Fortec - for three programmes a week that don't interest me much anyway!
