I cannot find the site I originally found, but it was a list of hardware specs for various Freesat boxes, and they were all S2. Looking around (digitalspy forums) it would appear that SD content is all DVB-S, but when they start the HD transmissions that will be DVB-S2 (h.264 IIRC, but again I cannot find a good reference). The old BBC site had more info, but now it is a flash marketing site :) _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
