E4 live feed anytime if you have sky and Red button missing???. (and related threads merged)
 

Has anyone got the red button on E4 on their tv???. The red button on my tv hasent been on since late last night.

me i had it today

They often have issues with the red button and there is a way around it.. I will [post the way around it soon.. just have to look it up

i know that on sky you cant press red whenever a big brother program is on.:thumbs:

i saw it on a forum amy i cant remember which tho :/ i added it on sky

Ok .. on your sky remote.. go to services... press add channels.. then change frequency to 12.480 then press find channels add 12005 by pressing select then go to services again and 12005 should be there add that and you should be able to watch it!

ook i have it for sky only

THERE IS A SECRET BIG BROTHER CHANNEL ON SKY SO YOU CAN WATCH BIG BRO 24HOURS A DAY 7 DAYS A WEEK EVEN WHEN THE RED BUTTON IS NOT AVALABLE ON E4..THANK ME LATER!!
A run through for the Sky BB channel:

Set your Satellite to get the live feed all the time even when the red button isn't visible:

On your Sky Remote:
Press SERVICES
Choose SYSTEM SETUP
Then ADD CHANNELS

type in these details via your remote:

Frequency(GHz) 12.480
Polarization V
Symbol Rate(Mbaud) 27.5
FEC 2/3

Then select FIND CHANNELS

Two options will appear. Select 12005, press YELLOW button, then SELECT.

To watch this new channel,
select SERVICES, OTHER CHANNELS, then choose 12005

where did you find that, thats mint.:thumbs::thumbs:

or do that it's better than mine :laugh2:

off a forum thanks for the comment also amy :thumbs:

This was a god send to me as I, for some reason, don't have the red button showing on e4 on mine

sometimes it isnt on mine, so from now on i can just use that, thanks alot for that.:thumbs::thumbs::thumbs:

ahh amy your confusing me lol

Sorry Tom.. I thank you for posting the better version of details.. you are a life saver to those that cannot access the red button :cheer2:

Tom! You're using my signature. Please please taking it down!

If you are finding it hard to do this.. you only have to change the frequency to 12.480 ... as long as you select the channel at the end and go to other channels you can view straight away.. works well honest and is easier than a red button

does that happen with you, when a bb program is on, bblb bbbm and so on, you cant press red?:thumbs::thumbs:

This is too complicated. I hate doing stuff like this. I have remembered a better solution. Virgin Media do live feed on their website and I have foudn it now and watching it from there. So Ill stick with this til the red button comes back on E4. Its free this live feed on Virgin Media.

cool thanks tom07.. il give it a try :thumbs:

Is there anything that can be done to freeview?

I can get it on sky but I don't think it's been available on freeview since BB6, the button's also black and gold in the BB7 colours, abit random I know but they should be bothered to change it :)

cool thanks for that Tom means more hours for me to annoy my hubby :colour:

I could get it in BB7.

I have to say guys I agree with Amy. I've been using channel 12005 for BB live feed since BB6. It's really quick and easy to get into as well and as Amy says it's easier to use than the red button which you have to wait for then press something else and wait for that to come up.

The free live feed on Virgin Media broadband is good too ;)

Lx

yeah, but I think they do that on purpose.. but mine has not come up at all this year
