PROGRAM 65534: 777 Test Service

Which I've never seen before.

Grabbing a test capture of the only PID (65534) shows that it seems to have:

1x h264 (video) stream
1x AAC-LATM (audio) stream
1x MHEG5 (data) stream

The MHEG5 stream appears to be the usual Freeview EPG (data appears valid from a quick glance), as for the video/audio stream, it appears to be the bog standard striped test screen with a slider that beeps on L once when the slider is the left side, and twice on R when it hits the right side.

Where are you seeing the WTV test channels?
