Problems getting ITV1 with MSI USB Freeview

[The One]

Hi there,

I recently bought an MSI Freeview DVB-T USB Digital TV Stick from OCUK. Installed it and as expected the portable aerial is useless but using the roof aerial I can get about 50 channels or so.

The problem is I can't seem to get ITV1 (or ITV Scottish in my case). What's odd tho', is that I am getting ITV2, ITV3, ITV4, CITV fine and with good quality.

Is there anything I can do about this? My postcode is EH11 and the freeview website says it should be fine.

It's a bit annoying because I bought the stick to watch the Champions League Final and then the world cup!

i have no idea of how to fix your problem, but are those USB sticks any good as my freeview box packed up and ive been thinking of converting a spare system into a media center?

try using a different program like this one, using it with the MSi requires the latest nightly SVN build applied though.

Freeview channels are transmitted in groups. ITV1 is in the same multiplex as ITV2/3/4 etc. If you can receive the latter channels you should have no problem receiving ITV1

Here is a list of the multiplex groups.

A lot of guys at work have the Freeview DVB-T USB stick and using an aerial booster are able to pick up every channel using the supplied portable aerial. Without the signal booster they aren't able to pick up a single mux in the office. A signal booster can make a lot of difference. If you don't have one on your indoor aerial it might be worth buying/trying one.

But if you can pick up the other ITV channels the I can't see why you can't see ITV1 as they are all on the same mux.
