sky news red button

[Jo-Jo]

anyone know if the red button is available on any frequency to be viewed on a dreambox so i can watch uninterupted coverage of the MJ trial ?

i would imagine its just the same as the bbc and sky red button sports channels ,its probably a data channel as are the bbc red button sports channels if so you can probably change the channel from a data channel to a tv channel .i think this is the frequency
12.207 V 27500 2/3
you will need dreambox edit to change the channels from data to tv channels .

found the sky news active channel bit its split into 4 screens audio button allows me to select audio but is there a way to get it to full screen ?

that i dont know jo ,i know with the sports you get a channel with 8 screens but you also get each channel individually as well in full screen ,so perhaps there are are a few more data channels on that frequency that you can change to tv channels or maybe they have a second frequency for the indiviual full screen channels .have a look at the frequency list here
Astra 2A / Astra 2B / Astra 2D / Eurobird 1 (28.2E) - All transmissions - frequencies - KingOfSat

i did a full channel rescan and loaded the list into db edit and chaged all data channels to tv channels then stuck them into a bouquet i have gone through every channel that was data and can not find any full screen sky news channels

Many thanks.sadly a victory for sky viewers over dreambox damn.

Simply connect pc/laptop to tv then stream for free from bbc news live coverage works great.

i did a fresh channel rescan then loaded the channel list into dreambox edit i then created a new bouquet folder and named it for this purpose data channels now in dreambox edit change the type drop down menu from all to data and then highlight them all right click and change type to tv then add all these to the newly created bouquet and send to box now just zap through with your remote to the new channels and one of them will be the sky news active screen one

a bit llong winded but this is how i found it

The Sky box just expands the smaller image to full-screen, that's why the PQ is so poor. BBC News has 6 pictures in their grid.
