Can someone who can handle their 1080i signal care to do a test and confirm it has audio?

vPID H.264 = 450
aPID HE-AAC = 400
aPID AC3 = 410

Scan in DVBViewer does not show PID 410 only 400.. Though they are playing Bones HD at the moment so looks like they're testing something.

Actually its switching between Bones and Live (Malcom in the middle). AAC stream also appears to be Mono instead of Stereo (24kHz 41KBits instead of 24kHz/128KBits like C4 is currently on)

Auckland, Both 562 and 570Mhz scanned

They must be playing as the AC-3 PIDs are now off air.
