Can i watch tv and change the audio on digital satelite.i done it on analogue ,is it possible or not..Thankyou rhurbarb:p
 
If the channel is carrying dual audio tracks yes its possible. Most receivers you just flick the audio button on the remote and choose which track you want.

Many channels of course only carry one audio track though.
 
Well that was a quick response thanks m8,excuse my ignorance but if i cant change it on the audio button then there is no way to manually put a audio frequency in then and which bit changes the audio is it the 5/8 7/8 eyc or is it the 27500/22000 switch..Thanks again bud nice one ...Rhurbarb
 
Look at a digital channel on Lyngsat or similar and you will see VPID, & APID VPID is the video programme identifier, and APID is obviously the audio.

Each audio track has an apid. Change the pid, get a different language! :D
 
As for the others :

27500 / 22000 is the symbol rate, and 3/4 etc is the FEC (forward error correction)

You need to get each one right for a digital channel to work.
 
This is what it looks like when you have a choice of audio stream.
In this instance Spanish, and the original English soundtracks are being transmitted simultaniously.

il try that now and see what i come up with Thanks guys you been a big big help ,nice to know there are peolpe out there who put themselves out for others ...Thanks again keep you posted Rhurbarb:) :) :)
 
If you are looking for radio as per the title, then you won't find it on the TV channel audio choices, you will have to switch your receiver to Radio mode, it may be a single button, or may be a choice when viewing the channel list. It is not like the old analogue days, where one channel would carry unrelated audio bands.

If you are simply looking for different language versions of the channel you are watching, then as mentioned above, just press the audio or language button.
