Good morning all.
~After the tremendously successful “Clamenza” on Saturday we are doing another Test this morning at 0930GMT(UK)/1030CET(W.Europe).
I am sure no-one really needs another Test after the success of the weekend, but remember this is a DVBS-2/QPSK/Pilot-OFF broadcast.
The test period of today’s transmission will commence at 15:45GMT/16:45CET
The user conference will be active from 15:15GMT
Services established and stable at 15:35GMT on IS10-02 and EU5Wa
T12 was established and stable before 15:45GMT
Subtitle units at teleport rebooted at 17:23GMT causing brief loss of service
Brief disturbance logged on EU5Wa Mux analyser at 20:33GMT – Russian 10-02 service also affected
All European services ceased at 21:15GMT
Other that events noted above – clean and stable transmission
UPDATE3: All issues resolved at 0945GMT. Test is now extended to 1015GMT/1115CET
UPDATE2: There is a problem at the teleport. There is AUDIO but no PICTURE
UPDATE: there is a slight delay in the feed coming up. Apologies.
Good Morning.
A reminder that there will be a Test at 0930GMT(UK)/1030CET(W.Europe) for 30 minutes. It will be on IS-1002 and IS-905
Remember that this is a DVBS-2/QPSK/Pilot OFF broadcast.
The test period of todays transmission begins at 13:15GMT / 14:15CET

Transmission ceased at 17:50GMT

Good morning.
A reminder that there is a Test this morning at 1000GMT(UK) / 1100CET(W.Europe)
As previously, this is a DVBS-2/8PSK/Pilot ON broadcast.
Good luck with this test opportunity.
UPDATE @1842. I am told that the audio is finally settled, but STEREO only.
This is on both audio channels you will find on your receiver (PIDS 34+36 being identical)
UPDATE @1822: The picture has come back, but we think ALL audio has disappeared!!
UPDATE @1805: There is neither picture nor audio coming from Netherlands. You can still tune, and will find a black screen with no audio on a channel called “2-SAT HOL280HD”
UPDATE @1756. Dolby audio has gone again. The DD flag is present but there is no content. Our colleagues at Arqiva are speaking to the theatre directly to try to reslove this. Seems that picture keeps going too!
UPDATE @1750. Dolby Digital is now being sent. It arrived automatically on the IcecryptS4000. The Topfield and Humax needed the channel deleted and the channel re-tuned
UPDATE @ 1730: All feeds are established and stable. As far as we are aware (and are trying to find out why) the feed is currently MUTE on the Dolby (PID-34). There is stereo available on PID-36
Good afternoon.
A reminder that the Testing period starts at 1640GMT(UK) / 1740CET (W.Europe)
This broadcast is DVBS-2/8PSK/Pilot ON. This is different to many of the broadcasts you take. Please tune with care, and tune-in early.
Good luck for this evening, from all the team at CBS.
