Hi

We have Sky and we seem to only be able to pick up our regional ITV 1 Meridian. I was wanting to record a program on ITV 1 Wales does anyone know what the channel number is or how I can find it please? I have done a search on all channels but nothing shows for ITV1 Wales only ITV 1 London and ours which is ITV 1 Meridian South. Can anyone help please?

Thanks

:)

    You can add any ITV region by add channels, but can only record onto an external recorder and not onto Sky+ as far as I am aware, you haven't stated which type of Sky receiver you have .

    Thanks, we have Sky+ in main room and a standard box in multiroom. How do I add ITV 1 Wales please?

    Time has moved on (much quicker than it used to - or so it seems at my age) and my previous advice on residential telephony has been or is now gradually being overtaken by changes in the retail market. Hence, I have now deleted links to my previous 'pearls of wisdom'. I sincerely hope they helped save some of you money.

    Press Services-Options-Add Channels-enter the information-press save.
    Then when you want to watch that channel you have to again press services-Options-Other Channels-then select the one you want.Unfortunatly,they wont be added to the EPG on the Sky.I think you can record them if you select the Manual Recording in the Services manu tho.

    All the regional variations will show up in the nether regions of the Freesat EPG, just scroll down.
    The default regions are determined when you put the postcode in at the start of the set up tuning process. If you want to change the defaults, just do a new retune.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)
