Further to the above, I scanned the CNN HD transponder to see if any changes had been made.
I can't say when it happened, but compared to a previous scan, the CNN HD bitrate has been cut back by 1.5000 Mbps
Video Bitrate (Mbps) sampled at 32 <= dPCR <= 65 ms intervals over 17 seconds for 11670.75 H 23000 2/3 DVB-S2 8PSK (17/06/2021 19:29:31)

Paul.: Yes, thought that was the case, especially given the region.
It wasn't specifically mentioned in the Arqiva statement, as I recall.
Seeing a working DVB-T multiplex on a satellite transponder is a bit strange, and I did some head scratching at first!
There had been a HD colour bars test with a News category on the transponder for a while.
There are now three regular transponders that are not in the ASTRA/BSkyB NIT - this one, Freesat, and the Astra UHD Demo transponder.
On the Freesat transponder, Arqiva is the service provider for "talkSPORT Dist", consisting of three AAC audio streams, and what appears to be three DAB multiplexes, with names "D1 DAB", "SDL nATL" and "BBC NDRA".

ASTRA/BSkyB Diffs:
Six new, apparently FTA, HD tests with Entertainment category
No actual streams yet, just SDT entries.
No idea what they will be:

They are in the normal satellite EPG but are not in the SDT yet and therefore nameless, having only EPGIDs.

Been on the bottle (had a few beers) so forgive any inaccuracies ...
Due to my usual weekly, or in this case, bi-weekly, AltDVB channel scan, I discovered that Al Jazeera HD had acquired the Freesat SI streams - a sure-fire indication that it would soon be on Freesat:
(I reverse engineered the AltDVB channel list file)

Al Jazeera HD (52189) 11582H
Number of streams changed from 3 to 8
new stream, PID = 3841 Type = 0x05 : private_sections

All was revealed when I read this: Sky & Satellite Monthly News Thread, May 2021 - Page 18 -- Digital Spy
Today, my Freesat differ program tells me that along with the BBC RED BUTTON streams, "Al Jazeera Eng" has been added to the Freesat test region.
Note - and this is Top Secret - use postcode am1 to access the test region. (I cracked the postcode to region table ten years ago and have to admit being pleased with myself for having done so. Has anyone else? Would love to hear from you.)

Tuned to CNN HD earlier today and got silence1! The ac3 audio stream was absent! I need my daily dose of anti-Trump propaganda off CNN but it wasn't forthcoming without resorting to mpeg audio!
