Can PBS be accessed using the Tarbs STB because it uses MDS encryption?
Posted By: SK Re: VH1 and Discovery Channel - Fri 19 Nov 2004 04:00:PM
Hi,<br /><br />Interesting to note Discovery is on PBS since SKY pacific is advertising they will also have it in their package. Also they have TCM movies - can anybody tell me if its worth having this with the package.<br /><br />Regards<br />SK.

I think in the next few weeks PBS will start filling there positions in, it will be interesting to see what they will have outside the ZEE Channels, My opinion and Only My opinion it will mostly have English Channels in it. As I find out more infomation on PBS I will certainly put it on this forum.<br />Phil

VH1 is a spin off from the people at MTV<br />but it just focuses on music rather than tv shows.<br />If you got Foxtel Digital you will see it.
Posted By: Jedi Knight Re: VH1 and Discovery Channel - Tue 23 Nov 2004 12:57:AM
Interesting.
Posted By: Big Chief Re: VH1 and Discovery Channel - Mon 29 Nov 2004 04:45:PM
Sky Pacific is Fiji TV's DTH platform. <br /><br />Apparently, they were supposed to go KU band on NSS 5 and had a legal battle with New Skies.<br /><br />More infor on VH1: http://www.vh1.com
