  1. I like the channel, watching innovative women program tonight and the volume goes way loud at every music intro to the next segment? Do any of the producers actually watch their program. I don’t believe it is a problem with the signal, moreso the production quality. Very backyard effort. Please improve if you want people to watch.

  2. Can view on Analogue TV with top set box sound and picture no problem.
    Can not view on 2 HD LCD TVs, only sound and states “no signal”
    All 3 TVs connected to same aerial with booster !

    Scholsey was right to a point and you are as well.

    The channel has started and does have an amount of infomercials airing in its home shopping genre which is capped. It is now working on filling education with University/school profiles etc, travel with destination specific information and costs, technology shows with the latest technology etc. All of this will be coming in the months ahead. Its a case of delivering it for now and then growing into a channel that delivers a variety of genre’s in competition to what Foxtel charges for at the moment. Its all about giving the FTA community the beauty of more options at no extra charge.

  4. I have a brand new Tyagi LED tv that supports MPEG4. I do have sound, but no picture. It just displays Invalid Format. Infact the sound is also a little lower than other the other channels on the 7 network. How can I fix this?

  5. TV4ME is MPEG4 – If you have a Panasonic Digital TV you have to enable MPEG4 in your Setup Menu. It’s not activated by default. Then turn your TV off then back on and rescan the channels which it should do automatically when you turn the TV back on. Then you will be able to see and hear the new channel. Once MPEG4 is enabled on your TV any other MPEG4 stations which come online will be viewable straight away.
    This may apply to other brands of TV as well.

  6. I have a year old HD panasonic & all I get is a “no video” signal.. I am recieving the programe guide but no signal… will I get a picture soon..? Paul from Adelaide.

    “content for this new will be “lifestyle, finances, community, education and shopping”.

    Is exactly what they are showing now! It’s an infomercial channel, maybe you should check your facts before ranting about other people.

  8. I’m the same. Have a full HD tv and have tried many times to see if I can get it and don’t receive anything. I am in Healesville Victoria so I should get it. What’s the problem!

  9. I have a Full HD tv and we have a plasma tv as well. However on both televisions you cant get this channel all you get on one is the sound or nothing and the other you get nothing at all. If your going to put these “new channels” on please make sure they work so we have the choice to watch them, its really annoying when you cant. The plasma tv started to update on its own thats what this one does and then I got sound but no picture and then nothing the next time i checked and the other tv basically you get nothing at all. So how about fixing this so we can all see whats so good about these channels since you obviously have put them on.

  10. 2 x Sony Bravia’s – TV4ME is fine ( audio and video ).
    2 x HTPC’s with DVB tuners ( PCI and USB ) – TV4ME is fine ( audio and video) …..

    And I did notice the the Video PID was 1137 (H264)…. Excellent quality of text on screen at 1080p for a TV broadcast.

    Keep up the quality, Channel 7. This is not a comment on content though 🙂
