Bertmay: McMafia and Hard Sun are on BBC One so what has BBC Four HD got to do with it?

I would do a factory reset on that Panasonic.

StevensOnln1: "There isn't a separate version of BBC Radio 4 for Scotland"

That is an assumption on your part, is it not?

If you look at my dump of the Com78 National network,

All of the free TV channels on PGSTART790 in the UK

you will see that the service_ids of all the BBC "non-regional" radio services are different for Scotland.

Compare BBC A Scotland with all the other BBC A multiplexes:

BABESTATION has been disabled on Freesat.

Perhaps it was not deleted because it is the only entry left in the "Adult" category:

StevensOnln1: You don't mention BBC Four.

On Freesat, the services that have HD simulcast linkage descriptors are:

BBC Four
BBC NEWS
BBC One
BBC Two Eng
CBBC
CBeebies
ITV
STV
UTV

Unfortunately, the transponder specified in the linkage descriptors for BBC Four and CBeebies is nearly always wrong.

This is from yesterdays Freesat EPG:

BBC Four, Wed 14 Feb 19:00 - 19:30 : Beyond 100 Days
The latest national and international news, exploring the day's events from a global perspective. Also in HD. [S] Followed by weather.

Linkage: 2.2050.8931 = not_found, event_simulcast, target_listed, target_event_id = A32C

Refers to 2050 so doesn't work. This is 2050:

10847.00 V 23000 2/3 DVB-S2 8PSK 0.25 28.2E
TSID = 2050 ONID = 2
SID service_name
6940 BBC Two HD
6941 BBC One HD
6943 BBC One NI HD
6945 6945
6952 CBBC HD
6960 BBC Two HD
6961 BBC One HD
6963 BBC One NI HD
6972 CBBC HD

What it should be is 2061:

11023.25 H 23000 2/3 DVB-S2 8PSK 0.25 28.2E
TSID = 2061 ONID = 2
SID service_name
8901 BBC One ScotHD
8911 BBC One Wal HD
8921 BBC NEWS HD
8931 BBC Four HD
8932 CBeebies HD
8951 BBC Four HD
8952 CBeebies HD

Here's one that, unusually, does work:

BBC Four, Wed 14 Feb 19:30 - 20:00 : Bolsover Castle with Lucy Worsley: Secret Knowledge
Lucy Worsley tells the story of Bolsover Castle in Derbyshire Built in the 17th century, it became the pleasure palace of playboy Cavalier William Cavendish Also in HD [S]

Linkage: 2.2061.8931 = BBC Four HD, event_simulcast, target_listed, target_event_id = A5FA

StevensOnln1: Well, I just grabbed the Freesat EPG and guess what...

The one that was working:

BBC Four, Wed 14 Feb 19:30 - 20:00 : Bolsover Castle with Lucy Worsley: Secret Knowledge
Lucy Worsley tells the story of Bolsover Castle in Derbyshire Built in the 17th century, it became the pleasure palace of playboy Cavalier William Cavendish Also in HD [S]

Linkage: 2.2050.8931 = not_found, event_simulcast, target_listed, target_event_id = A5FA


No linkages on BBC Four work until this:

BBC Four, Mon 19 Feb 19:00 - 19:30 : Beyond 100 Days
The latest national and international news, exploring the day's events from a global perspective. Also in HD. [S] Followed by weather.

Linkage: 2.2061.8931 = BBC Four HD, event_simulcast, target_listed, target_event_id = A70C


No linkages on CBeebies work until this:

CBeebies, Fri 16 Feb 14:55 - 15:15 : Show Me Show Me
15/26. Cellos and Hugs: Children's show. Chris and Pui say 'hello, cello' and listen to its gliding and plucking sounds with Teddington. Also in HD. [S]

Linkage: 2.2061.8932 = CBeebies HD, event_simulcast, target_listed, target_event_id = A587


I posted on here about this years ago and it's still not fixed.
