So, what happened then? Where's the evidence? I don't see anything new! And no uplink report to support that!
Sometimes channels are uplinked but with no data for that channel in the steam (and thus no uplink report.)
For example last week there was one channel that could be picked up with a FTA receiver that has been reported to me was testing BET Jazz for a few minutes then went back to a Dish logo and music.
I dont believe that this channel has been reported on an uplink report as the data was never added to the data stream.
In the past there have been channels uplinked under the TMP channels and before they launched started getting guide data, and while the channel was named TMP1 the guide data gave away what the channel was. And on uplink day they just changed the channel name to its real name.
If you are interested in this stuff and want to see stuff like the raw guide data get a copy of a great piece of software called TSReader and a DVB tuner card.
Its amazing what you can see and find if you try.
I should also point out that all this stuff is in the clear, you are not hacing anything by accessing this data. All the data is sent in the clear as Dish uses the DVB standard and for DVB to work all that info must be sent out in the clear.
