Some success with ITV HD on Fortec Passion

The red button trick is only needed with Freesat boxes.

Do a factory reset after you've installed the software, then select Regional Channels. ITV HD should then appear in your channel list.

Dude!

That totally worked, is it the UK & ROI Regional setting after the reset that gives ITV HD?

Have I lost any international channels I would have had?

Sorry for all the noob questions, and thanks again for the help.

:-righton
 
Any channels you've scanned before reinstalling software will be lost. When you do a reset, there's an option to backup/restore your current channels :eek:
 
Thanks again Llew.

One more quick question; About a day after I did the reset and got ITV HD the name of the channel (and for Lux.tv) went all funky and now it's just a couple of random characters.

Is there any particular reason for that?
 
When a channel is automatically updated, the channel name may change. In the case of ITV HD, it may revert to a number (10510).

This may be done to 'disguise' the actual name in non-Freesat boxes, although I've only come across it in the Passion.

You can change the name manually to ITV HD, whether it will stay so permanently I don't know, that pid number is burnt into my brain since I started playing around with ITV HD, so it doesn't worry me :-rofl2

Don't know about random characters or Lux TV, may be a clean install of the software might help.
