Re: Changes to the TV Guide - July 2025

This was actually Two Indian channels are closing. Shame to see it go though India Today then Music India, maybe some broadcast media is an unreliable biased platform and related company will take pressure off the 523/711. Unless they find some way to fill up News genre, after 521 NBCNewsNowHD/522 Talk TV HD didn't last very long. Also the 520 got TVC News then jumped to 524 NTD. Sky EPG can be split or move Oireachtas TV on 521 as NTD lowest number of sky EPG 514.

TVP,  Anewz.tv and Taiwan Plus wouldn't be bad idea to launch News genre, leaving 521, 522 and 523.

Hi @Marlu-Nyu They are available to both, they are free ad-supported channels. As a result of this, they don't support being able to pause, rewind, fast-forward. The content will be a mixture of SD/HD content, given some of the contents age.

Thanks

I know it's out of the moderators hands and technically not Sky but would be interesting if these FAST channels were introduced to Now.

@RobertS83  Now TV is a differenrt proposition, a scaled down version of Sky if you will, unlikely they will end up on now.

 

If you want all the channels on the Sky Platform it would suggest Now TV isn't the service for you.

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.

@GD1 As it turns out I have both

 

I have Now as a back up and can use it on my other TVs that don't have a puck.
