Aren't there markets where both 9Gem and 9Gem HD are broadcast?

The Brisbane 'GEM's we get on the Sunshine Coast (92 = 9GEM - 95 = 9GEM HD') both show the 9 dots with GEM.
No 'HD' is displayed

'S' - for si I suppose !

My new T2 delivered recently had exactly the same problem. I found that HDMI = picture but no sound. I tried component cables and the sound worked OK. I then switched back to HDMI, and thought it worked, but it was getting sound from the component audio cables which I had left in. So - while I was w...

From what Dave at IceTV emailed you, it looks like he's pretty sure he can fix the problem you have using the information you sent him. It may take a few days for them to test the changes and push them into the IceTV server. I hope you are right, Peter, but Mac's information that he obtains ABC pro...

Hi Arthur,

Yes and yes.
I have no problems with IceTV in that regard.

I do have to make sure I manually scan the SC Frequencies, though, both for ABC and SBS, as they can clash with the Brisbane ones.

mac37

Hi, A bit late popping into this one - sorry if you're all sorted out (actually I'd be happy) - but - I am on the Sunshine Coast at Sippy Downs, with a T2. We are nicely situated, picking up BOTH transmitters from Bald Knob. SC North (Channels 2, 3, 5, 6, 8 - series). Regional. Good strong signal. S...

mac37

The benefit of the new TVs, though, is that they will give you iView and the like, through the network, no matter what the reception is like.
Having said that, the tuner in our LG is so much stronger, even when the PVRs break up a bit, its reception is good.

mac37

Just a suggestion. I have a T2 also, and the reception on Tuner "A" is quite poor,whereas tuner "B" is close to "100" for both strength and quality. Try setting the default tuner in the settings menu to tuner"B". It seems to "boost" the signal within...

Hi Peter,

Loaded the picon file on my T2.

All looking good here on the Sunshine Coast, both regional and Brisbane channels.

Thanks for the all the hard work.

mac37

Thanks Peter

Mac @ Sunshine Coast

mac37

I suggest you lodge a support request with IceTV, as my Perth EPG is correct for 7HD and 7mate (as below). Perhaps they need a reminder you're getting the Brisbane SEVEN re-transmission in Sunshine Coast. Cheers Geoff Thanks yet again Geoff. Dave @ iceTV is working/has worked on it. I have yet to f...

mac37

... The 7 70.... series are the re-transmitted Brisbane channels, and DO partake in the HD (as if we were in Brisbane). Funnily enough iceTV have the EPG wrong for LCN 70 - (showing channel 7 programs, instead of 7Mate). Whereas 70 does in fact broadcast 7Mate, HD . I suggest you lodge a support re...

Thanks Peter - sorry about the dates.

Yes.
Thanks Geoff.

Hi Peter,

I have recently applied the latest update.
I see the 7HD for our Sunshine Coast Brisbane channels did not make it.
Do you need another file for that or can it be done from the one I posted in May.

Thanks

mac37

Therefor - no WiFi dongle - no updates - fixed !!

mac37

Very interesting - I haven't had any of the re-booting problems with my toppy. But have you been following the re-booting toppy saga on the iceTV forum ?? There have been a lot of theories given and solutions put forward, none of which have suggested the WiFi dongle !! Do you, in fact, use iceTV ? E...

mac37

Yeah, I'll try anything !! The Topfield is a very old "SD" only recorder, and "was" giving a lot of trouble. The Humax gave us another 2 tuners. But - since we bought the T2, the toppy has been performing flawlessly !! Not used so much now though. The T2, although bottom of the n...

mac37

No Problem !
Ugly doesn't worry me either - I connect via Ethernet using Ethernet over power, and I have the usb tuner in the back, and a usb fan sitting on the shelf behind the T2, which is plugged into the front usb. keeps the tuner area cool which used to run very very hot.

mac37

There is one on the back (near the tuners), and one on the front - little door opens on the extreme right hand side.

mac37

Hi Peter,

Since no-one wants to play.
If it is any good to you !
As you are already aware, Brisbane (retransmitted) stuff is included in this.

Thanks

mac37

OK - It is not a real problem - I was just curious about the part LCNs played - let's let it be.
And thanks for all the great info.

mac37

LCNs are not used anywhere in the protocol for the T series IceTV. Channels are identified by ONID:TSID:SID triples. They both provide their own unique sets of triples, when scanned, one for LCN 72 and one for LCN 62. Do they? Yes ! There are two sets of triples for 7TWO in the Sunshine coast scan ...

mac37

Are you in the middle of a recording??
Happened to me once - found I was actually recording at the time of trying to scan.

mac37

Hi Trial Master,

Sorry I didn't reply, I've been in Brisbane all day - should have called in !!
You have by now obviously found last nights beta update, and all the new picons.

All the best.

mac37

All Picons look great for the Sunshine Coast - thanks prl.

Includes all new WIN stuff plus Bris and local 7flix (76 & 66) and Bris 10HD (13) - All receivable on Sunshine Coast.

Great work.

mac37

Sunshine Coast re-scan stuff.

in Wikipedia: On 11 February 2016, some smart TVs began receiving notification messages advising of TEN HD which will be revived on 2 March 2016.[17] As a result, ONE will be reduced to a standard definition broadcast and relocated to channel 12 (currently occupied by a HD simulcast of ONE). Also: N...

mac37

Thanks for the info.
That all sounds good.

mac37

Hi,
Is it appropriate to post the getservices file yet.? Or are you still sorting out the GOLDS etc.

mac37

Having checked the channels in the WIN series on our TV's tuner, I scanned channel 46 on the BW, and got a new set of channels as follows. 80 = GEM 81 = WIN Sunshine Coast 82 = Extra 83 = GO Sunshine Coast 84 = Gold 85 = Coming Soon 86 = Coming Soon 88 = GO Sunshine Coast Changing channel to 85 or 8...

Thanks Peter, the "WIN" set of picons look great.

mac37

No problem here - Sunshine Coast - QLD - Bigpond

mac37

Mine too.
Thanks for that, Peter. Good to know.

mac37

Don't panic, we've just finished breakfast !!
If you choose the metal looking skin, the list of recorded programs displays in a bigger nicer font, on our T2, anyway.
The rest, though you may have to follow PRL's suggestions.

mac37

Thank you very much !

mac37

OK - here we are with just "WIN".
Thanks.
Sorry the original one had WIN missing !
