Looks like Eden has already became FTA today, as its encryption has most definitely been removed allowing me to watch the channel without a subscription or a viewing card inserted. How come there is STILL no info about this in this post?

Probably because it doesn't affect either the EPG number or name.

The Sky staff are given the information on channel changes quite near to the change date. I've not seen posts or mentions about encryption changes that often, so it's unlikely it would be announced on this post.

However, Eden will be changing to U&Eden soon when it launches on Freeview and Freesat. It's due to change on 16 October.

You can find more info here on Eden/U&Eden:

The loss of ITV SD for me, means the loss of ITV Meridian that I had in favourites, my ITV+1 is London.  (103 is Anglia)

@MaccyD221 

You seem to ask this every week so as others have stated it'll be updated as and when. There is no rule that states it must be updated every Friday, in fact the last update was on Tuesday, just 3 days ago. 

@MaccyD221 

Edit: There is a new November thread with updates on.

Always rename the Cinema Channels when it is a significant time of the year.Do not see the point really as the films are the most important that people want to watch and I only watch Premieres anyway.

We know when it's done - every Friday. Only the changes that do happen. So if no changes, no update. 

[jamesrobinson6]

But if you 'follow' IE subscribe to the thread, you should see any update If a change is due it is posted. Fridays in the main, but sometimes at other times. 

Hopefully that will put the argument to bed
