HD swap and prominence of HD channels: Sky & Freesat only
On Sky and Freesat, in genres with HD channels, channel numbers sometimes differ between HD boxes and standard boxes.
Sky
Non-premium subscription channels - for those who subscribe to one of Sky's entertainment bundles, the HD channels of subscription channels on the HD box are "HD swapped" with the SD counterpart, giving the HD version of the channel greater prominence in the EPG.
Subscribers to the Sky Cinema Bundle get both the SD and HD versions of the Sky Cinema channels and the HD versions are given greater prominence on the EPG. This is regardless of which entertainment bundle is subscribed to.
For free-to-air channels the HD channel is generally in the more prominent position on all HD boxes, regardless of subscription. However, in the case of a small number of channels with regional variations in their programming or advertising (BBC One, BBC Two, ITV and Channel 4) the HD version only in the more prominent position in areas of the UK that receive identical HD and SD versions. On an SD box the SD version is always more prominent than the HD version.
For certain premium channels (BT Sport Channels and AMC; and eir Sports), the HD swap applies only for subscribers to those channels.
The number shown in the Sky column in the tables below is the most prominent number for the HD version of the channel.
Freesat
On HD boxes the HD channels are given prominence over the standard definition counterpart. The HD channel does not appear on the EPG of SD boxes. The number shown in the Freesat column in the tables below is the most prominent HD number.
