Trevor Harris: "Free" is defined as "free to air" in this context.
HD is defined by the number of lines in the transmission, and is not regarded as being "not HD" is the pixel shape is rectangular rather than square, again by definition.

Mick: Nothing has happened to multiplex 2 at this stage of switchover. I suggest you try doing a "first time install" again.

Tim CO14: If you are connecting to a computer monitor with an DVI connection, then it is the video card in the computer that requires the resolution.
As long as your software can decode MPEG4 transmissions and receive DVB-T2, you will get HD.

Vic Sullivan: The published schedule for changes, as it has been at about 900 other masts so far, has two stages, two weeks apart.
This is to allow people who "forgot" to buy a Freeview box a couple of weeks to get to Argos.

Tony Hill: Is your box connected to the amplifier you use for your 5.1 sound with either fibre-optic or single-coaxial SPDIF?
If not, you won't get anything other than 2.0 sound.
I can confirm that I was watching BBC HD last night for several hours and the DD 5.1 light was on my amp and the dialogue came from the central dialogue speaker and there was music and effects behind me...
ITV1 HD does not yet carry subtitles.
