Looks like the change is rolling out now.
Freeview TV guide now shows FOUR+1 (could the logo be any bigger?!?).
C4 just switched to a placeholder for "The Edge TV".

I see Edge TV is up on 12644H SID 1255 on DTH.

No sign of Four+1 yet.

Hi Guys

Four+1 will not be on Satellite till Mid-July, this applies to both Freeview Satellite and SKY

Currently FOUR+1 has soft-launched on Freeview HD 9 and Mediaworks will officially launch FOUR+1 mid-july when both services are up and running. Channel 9 on DTH will remain removed till FOUR+1 launches

Cheers

I was expecting Sommett Sport to be at least SD as well.

Ok, we have Four+1 now. But there is no programme guide for this new channel.

Four+1 started on Freeview Satellite on July17 . Now I suppose we have to wait for Prime+1 or will the next one be One+2 ???....I believe they have a few +2 channels in the UK.

To me, as many viewers now have time-shifting devices, this Freeview bandwdth would be far better used to launch a few Freeview HD channels on Satellite. 14% of Kiwi households will still be without Freeview HD when the Terrestrial network is entended fom 75% to 86% coverage.
