In the next couple of days UBI WORLD TV will be launching a new Polish channel Free-To-Air on channel 57.<br /><br />More information soon.

FTA in what way?<br />TRUE FTA or FTA as a preview to be encrypted later?

Apsattv plse get over it...<br /><br />What f's the difference. Its FTA as a marketing tool...<br /><br />You don't expect UBI to bring it all the way to Australia to be TRUE FTA. They don't operate like Globecast...<br /><br />Grow up!!!

Dont matter what it is... Its another channel that the Poles can watch.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/default/wink.gif" />

Big Cheif it was a simple enough question?<br /><br />Same as they broadcast TRT FTA.

Mr apsattv.<br />Do you like fishing? you get plenty of bites on this forum <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/default/grin.gif" />

Similar to what they do with TRT and SCTV.<br /><br />Yes phill some Pirahna's here as well

Obviously its not TV Polonia and I doubt the new Polish channel coming in will be paid for by them to be FTA unlike TRTI and SCTV.<br /><br />Mostly government networks pay providers to take their channels across the world..

Well... How many days is a couple of days? Sorry it's not sarcasm but just a curiosity. We get that stuff quite often - 'coming soon', 'in a few days', 'in a couple of days'. Satellite TV is technologicaly advanced stuff and technology allows more precision ;-)

Never put a time frame on something. People hold you to it <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/default/smile.gif" />

I'm hoping for either Tuesday or Wednesday but mostly likely Tuesday.

Just like the Greek channels. They have been coming soon in a "couple of days" also. Ubi also say they will fix the technical difficulties of Mad Tv in a "couple of days". Maybe there not technical difficulties.

paphos74,<br /><br />Never been said that MADTV would be fixed in a couple of days. It's an ongoing issue. UBI are working with MAD TV to fix up the fault.

Why don't you tell us what this so called fault is.

It's a hardware fault.

What do you mean a hardware fault. Which hardware has gone faulty? Why so long to fix?

Prob'ly the same what happened to tvplaneta. After technical dificulties were rectified it came back slightly squashed, with a bit narrower spectrum, hence - poorer picture. I reckon they are waiting till they know how many they are going to have and what compression to use depending on number of channels per TP.

I really don't think UBI or myself really need to explain the actual hardware fault as MAD TV is a FTA channel atm.<br /><br />This is way off topic so no more MAD TV discussion in this thread.

This Topic is about POLISH CHANNELS keep to it or it will be closed <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/default/smile.gif" />

anything new in that topic

This is only relaxed chat. No reason to get agro. Since it is all such a mystery (only you know the truth) the only thing left for us is to have a guess. Nothing sinister about this.

we are relaxed <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/default/wink.gif" /> but this thread was about polish then once again like many threads on here got changed so just relax <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/default/wink.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/default/smile.gif" />

yesterday i called ubi and they said that the polish channel shold start on the last monday.but there was some delays. so the polish channel on channel 57 is going to start in any time and in any hours or any days. that is good.

It was meant to start this Monday but there has been a delay.<br /><br />I will post more updated information when ready.

thanks liski ur the best.

Don't panic! The delay should be only a few months. May become a good christmas present.

no one seems to look panic here <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/default/tongue.gif" />

Except for you Lazer and Liski. All you guys seem to be saying to the forum is complete bollocks. Why don't you speak the truth for a change and inform the forum with facts. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/default/tongue.gif" />

well u seem to be laying the facts out for everyone and is quite entertaining for most so do continue with laying out the FACTS <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/default/smile.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/default/grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/default/tongue.gif" />

Oh Lazersat! You are so funny mate. Instead of talking a lot of crap why dont you and Liski tell us laypersons all the facts since you two have the inside information. We would just like to be informed with the truth.<br /> <br /> <small>[ 27. July 2005, 08:54 PM: Message edited by: paphos74 ]</small>

i know as much as you know no more no less i am waiting for the greek package also so just relax abit and when it comes on everyone will know all the information they want <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/default/smile.gif" /> <br /><br />and yes i am funny alot of ppl tel me that <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/default/smile.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/default/grin.gif" />

Sorry Lazersat! That was a misprint. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/default/grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/default/rolleyes.gif" />

Well then why don't we get straight answers from Liski who seems to know all this information?

If you don't like my answers then please refrain from asking questions. Simple!

Can you answer this one then Liski, since you closed the thread before i could post.<br /><br />you said in the MAd TV thread.<br /><br />"Mad TV is an FTA channel at the moment and can come and go as UBI please."<br /><br />I suggest then you remove it from the UBI website if its only a test channel, since you are advertising it as part of a future Greek service.

apsattv,<br /><br />Thank you for your feedback.<br /><br />I never said "test channel" I said "FTA channel at the moment"

Good point Apsattv.

Listed on UBI website as being part of a Greek package. You may wish to fix that since its unavailable at the moment.
