/BSkyB Diffs:

Ocean Rescue launched: "A new pop-up from the Sky Ocean Rescue campaign where you can watch the 2017 EU Ocean Summit live from Malta presented by Sky News' Gillian Joseph."

Seems to me, if BSkyB really cared about the oceans they would have made 'Ocean Rescue' FTA.

12461H was cleared and removed from the ASTRA NIT. Still active at present.

Ideal Extra was renamed Ideal Xmas.

/BSkyB Diffs from Wed 04 Oct 2017 18-01 to Thu 05 Oct 2017 18-01:

BSkyB finally got around to implementing the Move for QUEST and Quest Red that carried out a week ago.

As is their wont, they have neglected to delete the now useless entries from the SDT.

6454, of type 2 'digital radio sound service', appeared in the SDT of BBC transponder at 10803H. The Running Status for 6454 is 1, meaning not running.

The transponder at 12461H, that was cleared and removed from the NIT yesterday, is now carrying the with TSID 2005, currently carried by 11798H.

This was taken from 12461H, but the bitrate program thinks it's off 11798H because it reads the TSID of the multiplex from the PAT and gets the parameters for that TSID from the NIT:

Bitrate (Mbps) sampled at 31 <= dPCR <= 63 ms intervals over 20 seconds for 11797.50 H 29500 8/9 DVB-S2 QPSK (06/10/2017 02:06:55)

06.034 | 04.174 | 05.077 | All Other Streams
52.110 | 52.110 | 52.110 | TS Bitrate

This was taken from 11798H:

Video Bitrate (Mbps) sampled at 30 <= dPCR <= 65 ms intervals over 20 seconds for 11797.50 H 29500 8/9 DVB-S2 QPSK (06/10/2017 02:07:45)

06.087 | 04.134 | 05.081 | All Other Streams
52.109 | 52.109 | 52.109 | TS Bitrate

The slight difference in TS Bitrate could be due to a slight difference in Symbol Rate.
