Recording BBC red button channels on sky
 

Anyone know the frequencies for the red button channels on sky so that I can add the channel then record it?

I've tried the frequency here but it didn't find them http://www.bbc.co.uk/reception/info/...quencies.shtml

If I understand your question correctly, it doesn't quite work like that. They've multiplexed 6 low-res into one channel, so you can't just record a single stream. The sky box then uses 'pan & scan' to select and upscale whichever stream you select. It's on 11954 H 27500 2/3 and is called T7 STRM-0

you cant record it as the Sky+ box does not record on 'Other Channels' feature that allows you to put your own channels by frequency/stream in

wyrdness what happened to STRM 2-8, they used to be each available on 12441 V 27500 2/3 but now nothing, the frequency is active but not showing any channels active

I couldn't remember if Other Channels are recordable. I've been working on digibox for a months and that doesn't have recording capability.

No idea what happened to that frequency. Things change all the time and I haven't worked in Interactive for ages (and never BBC Interactive).
