Hi

We do need to adhere to certain procedures when scheduling a brand new channel, however you should be seeing some programs already in the guide, ie. those that have been promoted on Go! during the test broadcast. ETA for a complete schedule is usually two weeks, however we will be closely monitoring on-air promos and adding programs as we go so it's a good idea to regularly update your guide.

Thanks

And for god's sake, don't get into another ICE v Nine debacle over it... tread carefully

+1 I also feel sorry for the person watching the promo loops :)
It was however really nice of nein to let us all know when everything is going to be on in a way that is usable to ice  :)

Quick work there, Ice!

Can ICE advise what their channel ID will be in the EPG data for GO in Sydney, please?

I am aware the channel is 99, but I need the ID that ICE will be passing in the data.

Thanks.

I still think it's completely ridiculous, especially in the aftermath of Nine's expensive court defeat, that they're still doing the best they can to make sure that savvy, technology equipped viewers have no idea at all what's on their shiny new channel.

A channel which, going by its marketing, is targeted at "the youth". And "the youth", technically savvy and quite capable of downloading shows "illegally" on their own, won't bother watching at all if Nine insists on continuing to restrict republication of a simple program listing.

So what's it to be, Nine? Paranoia, or bums on seats? Your call.

Any reason why go programming is non-existent from Monday onwards?
