MBC launch HD channels on Nilesat 201

MBC Media Group started broadcasting a test of seven of its existing programs in high definition televisions (HDTVs). Among them there are also a popular movie channel MBC2 and MBC Action in HD.

MBC to launch HD programmes began using a new transponder on the satellite Nilesat 201 at the orbital position 7 degrees west.

Unfortunately, the signal from this satellite can not be receive on small (like 80cm or 1m) satellite dishes in Spain, unlike those channels on Nilesat 101 which can.

DVB-S2 contains multiple MBC station MBC1 HD HD MBC2, MBC4 HD, MBC Drama, HD, HD MBC Action, MBC Max HD news television Al Arabiya HD. Package operates on the frequency 12.188 GHz, pol H SR 27500, FEC 3 / 4, DVB-S2/8PSK. All stations are due to restrictions on broadcasting rights Conax encrypted system. For high-definition versions of their programs by selling the MBC network to deliver the equipment market. The viewer gets a fee for access to an attractive package of entertainment channel MBC.

The current version of the MBC in SD resolution remain FTA.

So maybe in the future, HD version of the MBC channels will be available on Badr at 26 east, which is available over most of Spain on an 80cm satellite dish.

These MBCs can be seen as an alternate to Sky TV in Spain. The SD versions of these MBC channels are free to air, show many programmes in English, and have a wide range of movies, action and drama programems from both the UK and USA.

Missing MBC channels on Nilesat at 7 West

Today I have noticed that the MBC channels
MBC1, MBC2, MBC3, MBC4, MBC Action and MBC Max
on frequency 11938 27500 3/4
are not longer operating.

It may mean that they have moved to a new frequency.
This new frequency is being reported as being
12437 H 27500 2/3
However, this is no longer on the Nilesat satellites, but on Atlantic Bird, a new satellite in the same location.
Atlantic Bird has a different satellite footprint, and this means that these MBC channels are no longer available on 80cm satellite dishes in Spain.

Should you wish to continue to watch the MBC channels, then you will need to have a new dish pointing towards the Badr satelltes at 26 east.

ADMC Frequencies for Nilesat and Badr / Arabsat Premier League football

ADMC Sport have the rights for all 380 plus English Premiership football matches.

For this you will require a ADMC receiver, that has a 12 month subscription built in.

You may also need to have your satellite dish realigned.

Reception of ADMS Sport on the Nilesat / Atlantic Bird satellites on the Costa Blanca Spain requires a satellite dish of at least 1.25m, and even larger depending on your location. This is because the Atlantic Bird satellite at 7 West has a narrow beam designed for Africa only.

However ADMS Sports channels are also available on the Badr / Arabsat satellite located at 26 east. An 80cm dish should be sufficient to receive these signals.

So those people who wre watching the Showtime system last year wil need their dish and receivers realigned and replaced.

ADMC Frequencies for Nilesat / AB4 7 West
11449 H 27500-3/4
11488 H 27500-5/6 8PSK

ADMC Frequencies for BAdr / Arabsat at 26 east
11766 H 27500-5/6 8PSK

These signal frequencies may change later, as they are still in "test phase".

Also, these channels are in High Definition. The ADMC Sport Humax receiver is a HD receivers. It does not matter if you do not have HD TV technology available to you, as you can still watch HD channels on a SD (Standard definition) TV, although you will not see the quality of the high definition picture.

English Premier League Football - ADMC Sport - HD - All games.

The English Premier League Football is available on ADMC Sport - Abu Dhabi Media Company won the rights to the EPL for the next three seasons, and are amongst the few operators that have the rights to ALL premier league matches, including 3pm kickoffs. Previous rights holders were Showtime / Orbit.

ADMC is transmitting the games in HD, and is starting up some new HD channels for this.

These new ADMC HD channels are testing on both BAdr / Arabsat at 26 east and Atlantic Bird at 7 west.

Also located at 7 west are Nilesats, which many can receive in Spain. However the ADMC HD channels showing English Premier League Football will be on Atlantic Bird, which has a weaker signal footprint than the Nilesats

To watch English Premier League Football on ADMC you will need a satellite dish of about 80cm aligned to 26 east, and a ADMC Sport HD receiver. These receivers have a 12 month subscription built in (embedded).

I do not know what will happen after 12 months (and neither does my supplier! - it may be that a new HD receiver will be required, or simply another payment and the serial number of the receiver - personally I think the former, as the reason for embedding is to try and stop cardsharing and piracy of ADMC channels.

Although the channels are in HD, even if your TV does not have HD technology, you can still watch the channels in SD on your normal TV.

PACKAGE DETAILS


The AD Sports package consists of 10 HD channels and is due to be officially released in mid-July.

The channels are.....AD HD Sports 1 - 6, Sky News HD, Fox Movies HD, Fox Series HD, and National Geographic Abu Dhabi HD.
In an attempt to prevent piracy ADMC have teamed up with Humax and are using a Humax HD Receiver with an embedded 12 month subscription.
