Can VU or DM scan in BT Ultra HD?

[parkster]

Just noticed BT Ultra HD is now out.

Can Dreamboxes or VU+ receive this channel?

I can't find the frequency online anywhere, and a blind scan doesn't reveal anything apart from an "Astra Ultra HD Test Channe". The official stance from BT seems to be that you have to use their own STB.

I vaguely recall when ITV HD came out a software update was needed to be able to tune into it.

Isn't the BT 4K channel through IPTV? There's bound to be a feed about somewhere for it though.

Ah, not being broadcast by satellite at all. Presumably a DVB-C card won't pick it up either.

the only thing that will pick up the 4K BT Sport Ultra HD channel is the official 4K BT Vision receiver and you have to have BT's own broadband as well namely Infinity2 this channel will not work on any other internet service including IPTV
