    Error methinks. I have just updated my TV for the new channels and 320
    and 325 are unknown.

    Could be there's going to be one of those hybrid things where when you
    tune to that your TV fetches it from the internet.

    Yes there is at least one of those already, but often the feed is pretty
    naff even on a fast broadband. The stuff on the Samsung channels work far better.

    Some work well, some do not.
    The channels on LG channels work well too and, I think, seem to use less
    data.
