Tuning A Station

[jennyjoan]

I have both Sky and Freeview. There is a station I would like I think it is NTV - it's a Belfast channel.

This channel came in by itself on my upstairs TV but not into downstairs.

I have a Samsung - so how could I go about it. Thanks

Thanks for that Mamy - will try that - the only thing is when I sorta do a rescan - will it change all the other channel numbers that I am used to.

I really can't answer that JJ - best wait till someone comes on who knows.

[jennyjoan]

that's ok Mamy

Rescanning won't change your channel numbers.

NVTV (Northern Visions TV) should show up on channel 7. Schedule here:

Remember that when you retune you should NOT select an 'add channels' option (if one is offered to you). You need to tell your TV to do a 'start from scratch' scan, as explained here:

Unless things have changed, rescanning might change numbers. I've not experienced it for a long time now but I recall when I used to add channels, rather than start from scratch, channels used to be in unexpected places, and a subsequent rescan would change them back to where they were intended to be.

thanks - will try and rescan later

A few channels have changed numbers recently. BBC4 and BBC News on standard definition spring to mind.
