Looking at ChoiceTVs YouTube page and there's not a lot of gear in that broadcast suite. I hope we end up with 16x9 and not a whole lot of stretched pix in the wrong ratio like tv9. Gotta be concerned at the lack of broadcast quality monitoring in there.




don't mess with me.... i'm the hd insider....

Still trying to remain positive. A lot of good program makers running that place. Great to have more channels on Freeview, that's for sure!

Yes, it is live on Wharite too. EIT guide only contains stub "...live on 28th..." events.

What part of the Promo states that it will be in HD as I've not seen that mentioned anywhere else.

when I first heard ChoiceTV was coming I thought I would have to manually tune it in like I had to tune in tV9.   But no the other day I had a message channel lineup has changed and I had a look and there it was.   Strange because I had to do a manual tune for TV9 after it had already been broadcasting for a week.

On my Sony TV, Choice did not show up in the list of channels, however entering "12" on the remote worked (and added it to the list).
