[Poss OT] Freeview in High Definition

Did you watch e.g. BBC1 (on channel1) or BBC1-HD (on channel 101)?

normally not, but it could be that the HD mux is out of band for your aerial, what channels with "HD" in their name does your EPG show?

I'm pretty sure 'no'.

Are you sure the tuners are Freeview HD?

Cheers, T i m

Oops! Never used Freeview before and was unaware that the HD channels were at 100+x...

Many thanks!

As a matter of interest, since your question has been answered, why two tuners?

This is only normally done with a PVR, so you can record one thing while watching another.

Do some of these TVs have a facility to add an external hard drive, thus turning them into PVRs?

Plus don't some people have two programmes display at the same time. PIP. (I sometimes get that on my PVR if I press the wrong button! )

Mine does, but is only single-tuner.

No idea to be honest...

BTW, it also has 2 x Freesat tuners.

I was going to say that. I did a homebrew external drive for our Samsung TV. Works well, but it's only got one tuner so you can't watch one programme and record another. Think I'll get a Roku box soon.

The HDD is useful for pausing a programme when someone interrupts you (tip: pause the programme at the start so you can rewind a bit at the first interruption) or for short term recording. For longer time shifting I use get_iplayer.
