FIVE Now FTA
Spotted on a couple of forums, channel 5 (”Five”) is now broadcasting FTA so can be picked up on the PC at long last!
Unfortunately, it’s not as simple as just tuning to the FIve i’d already added to my EPG in preparation though, as it’s on a different frequency!
So to get FIVE working, I had to re-scan the sat channels and pick up a new one labelled “6335″. This is C5. So a quick rename and update to the XMLTV plugin and we’re away! Now I can watch 5th Gear and the Gadget show on the big telly
It should be added to the official Freeview EPG in the next couple of weeks.
