it might as well be manchester with the same sets as the british channel, an office set coming from columbia ???????

I've never understood the point of these foreign feeds.

The hassles you must have to overcome to set up and maintain the link, yet you just end up with shit picture quality, ropey-looking girls (or chicks with dicks) who may or may not turn up, the worry about keeping them Ofcom compliant, the crappy sets and lighting etc.

The only possible way they could make it financially viable is if they paid the girls next to nothing, which is also pretty questionable. There's probably a reason that Playboy have chosen Thailand and now Colombia as locations - places they can exploit the locals.

Quote:Adult channels move to 171-198

The "adult" channels on Freeview move up from 92-99 to start from 171. Channel 170 and 199 will be "bookend" pages to note the presence of the adult channels for those who flick up and down the channels.

171 Television X; 172 smileTV2, 173 smileTV3, 174 Babestn, 175 PARTY, 176 Blue, 177 Babestn2, 178 Playboy.

Thanks for the heads up.
I do wish they'd stop pissing around with channel moves (both $ky and Freeview).
Surely someone can make a decision and stick to it ?
So looks like I need to allocate some time on 19th to re-configure all my PC setups to ensure I don't miss any recordings.

It feels a bit odd that the adult channels arent in the x90s but it leaves enough space for 18 channels (171-198), there are only 8 channels listed so there is space for another 10 before the next change, it groups them all together and they are in the high numbers away from the everyday stuff so noone should be offended looking for shopping channels.

update for you all. it looks like the channels on freeview mite be moving on the 17-10-2012 not this coming week as it was ment to.
i also found out the party run's on or will run on a new stream that run's from 00.00 - 03.00 then i think it switches over to other stream at 03.00

It helps if you give a source so people can check it out for themselves

Quote:On Wednesday 19 September 2012 the following changes will take place:

(LCNs = Logical Channel Number)

Text and streamed channels genres will move from the 100s to LCNs 200 to 299
Reserved LCNs for new public service local TV due to launch in 2013.
(LCN 8 in England and Northern Ireland, LCN 45 in Wales and Scotland).
Reserved LCNs 51-53 for TG4, RTÉ 1 and RTÉ 2 in Northern Ireland from digital switchover on 24 October.
Channel moves:

• Dave (from 19 to 12)
• Really (from 20 to 17)
• Yesterday (from 12 to 19)
• Gold (from 17 to 20)
• Food Network (from 49 to 48)
• The Jewellery Channel (from 60 to 49)
  

Argos TV will launch at LCN 55.

On Wednesday 17 October 2012 the following moves are expected to take place:

• The HD genre moves from the 50s to LCN 101-120
• Marketplace moves from LCN 61 to LCN 50
• The four Manchester multiplex channels move from LCNs 56-59 to LCNs 51-54
• The Adult genre moves from the 90s to LCNs 171-198
  

So the adult channels will not be moving until 17 October, unless they change their minds again
