There's a quite a few from various sats. Look at the the HD sections on king of sat or lyngsat... One of the best is the TPS demo on Hotbird

No C4 or C5 though from what I can see.

The Dragon cam with a Sky Freesat card (once activated in a normal Sky box), does add C4 and Five to the lineup.
On Astra 19E FTA HD channels include SMD HD, Prosieben HD, Sat 1 HD, Astra HD and Anixe HD (all german, SMD and Astra cycle a demo, and unfortunately at present there are no alternate language sound tracks on films). On Hotbird the LuxeTV advertising channel from France is quite amusing since it's stated aim is to go for the top end of the market only. Fancy a hand made chandelier at $70000? It's quite ugly actually, I'd never buy one.....
