Dave Lindsay: BT Vision boxes will be OK, however, as they have MPEG4 built-in for their streaming services.

Mike Dimmick: Yes, thanks again.
I will check that document for the missing updates. I really wish it was a format I could import!

ian ayres: Freeview reception requires a rooftop aerial. If you were sold such a device being told you could use it in the way you describe, I would take it back and demand a refund.

Dave Lindsay: Sorry to interject here, but I suspect that would be a large waste of the MPs' time.
The "BBC South East" region was set up for East Sussex and Kent, and last time I looked the whole of Brighton and Hove are still in East Sussex.
Most people here in Hove use Whitehawk Hill as most aerials in our city have been moved to that transmitter over the last decade, as digital reception from Rowridge was more-or-less impossible.
A large amount of money was invested in the Kent and East Sussex BBC service, and it is the MPs who asked for it in the first place.
Also, as I have said before, Brighton and Hove get much, much better coverage from the new service than from BBC Southampton and Portsmouth.

Dave Lindsay: BT Vision boxes can decode the existing transmissions in the RoI, but they can't deal with DVB-T2 as the three transmitters in NI will use. Sorry for any confusion there.

Mike Dimmick: The "Blue Book" had had a new DVB-T2 transmission mode added to it in version 8, this is called "Northern Ireland mode", mode 11.
General: MPEG4 does not imply HD, but in the UK Ofcom prevented Sky from using on for the "Project Picnic" saying that MPEG4 would only be used on DVB-T2, not with DVB-T.
