Hi,
For those of you interested in picking up strange test broadcasts, ITV HD is currently testing on Eurobird 1 @ 28.5E.
Apparently the channel is currently broadcasting in H.222 (MPEG4 in an MPEG2 stream?), but can be picked up if you are using VDR+XINE+COREAVC. Most set top box satellite receivers can't pull in this channel at the moment.
Presently they are showing a loop of HD images of London at 1920x1088i.
I had to manually enter the information:
11428H / 27500 VPID: 3401 DPID: 3402 SPID: 54207
Anyway, if you are into picking up strange new test broadcasts (particularly HD) with your VDR box then enjoy.
Cheers,
Morfsta
Great, it's working :) I have vdr-xine + ffmpeg. The sound is not perfect, I think the CPU is not enough (AMD 2350 BE). Here is a screenshot: http://www.tigercomp.ro/~ifuley/itvhd.jpg
Thanks for the info, Morfsta.
