Cant get Terrestial HD channels in UK HELP!!!

Post by minimarvel »

Guys,

I have a Samsung UE65ES8000. It was bought in Spain but now I have moved to the UK, The service settings were set to Spain, so the Guide was not displaying correctly etc.
I have entered the service menu, 3Speed twice and was able to select country as EU-UK, so now the guide works fine etc etc. However, when doing a channel search it finds correctly all Terrestial Freeview channels Except the HD ones?

Can one of the smarter members tell me the toggle or setting in the service menu to switch on the HD channel receive part.

Model is UE65ES8000 S
UK model is UE65ES8000 U

Many Thanks indeed

It seems that UK HD channels are in DVB-T2 standard and spanish model has only DVB-T tuner.
I do NOT receive any PM. Please use forum.

Thanks for that - I was trying to avoid using an external box, but looks like I've no choice.
