Hey
Is Investigation Discovery still present on Cablevision? If yes on which frequency?
I can't seem to find it.
Thank you

There was a channel called Discovery ID on CV, but since their recent channel lineup change as of today, it is no longer there.  There is a channel called Crime and Investigation, but as of now, all it has are the TV color bars.  It is on 12040.

Edit:  been renamed to ID:  Investigative Discovery.  It is on 12000

It was called Discovery ID--now it is Investigative Discovery--so ID.   C&I is a different channel (have it on hotbird) and it has very similar programming.

Can you elaborate more? You have it all opened as in what channels? I have a Cablevision subscription and paid a bit extra to get additional Bein Channels. Is there any tricks that we need to know about?

Re: Is cablevision worth it?

Gotta admit---I like what CV did this week.  Almost all of the OSN channels are now in HD and other channels like Animal Planet, Food Network, H2, as well as MBC channels are also in HD which makes TV much more enjoyable to watch.  I wasn't watching CV that much because it had limited channels in HD, but now I do watch more beside the Discovery Channel.  :)

Re: Is cablevision worth it?

If we have 3 TVs in the house, how can you install CV on the 3 while having independent channels choice?
Should you pay for 3 receivers?
No W9 channel?

Lebanese dealers of Cablevision/Digitek/Econet cccam providers are a scam and overprice.
My provider is outside the country, cheaper than here, and its flawless.  (it does have its moments of cutting though, like 5% of the time).
And even during the cuts, he is very responsive and helpful to me.
Before i dealt with him, i asked around for many providers here in Lebanon, the lowest cost i got for those ccam subscriptions were like 80$ / year which i never would have accepted, even if i was rich  .

Re: Is cablevision worth it?

Thinking of paying for 1 legal CV subscription. Need access on one or two other TVs. What are my options?

For example:

1) Let's say I only wanted access to "Basic" channels on other TVs, would any "offline" regular receiver connected to the CV dish do?

2) Let's say I wanted access to the "Premium" channels (beIN, OSN) that I'm paying for and getting on my main TV, where would I start? Receiver with cccam/internet and a cccam subscription? And if so, how/where to do that?

I'd appreciate any help guys, and please feel free to PM me any info that can't be put out in public.
Thanks.

Re: Is cablevision worth it?

CV is a rip off compared to European and US ''box'' systems which gives you hundred of channels in HD + internet with 500mb/s speed.
Like all Lebanese mafias, no other company is allowed to sell TV satellite ''legal'' system because the CV guy is politically endorsed by a mafiosi politician.
These mafias will never allow our country to evolve to new techs, it remembers me when they didn't want to launch ADSL in Lebanon in favor of Wise and Mobi...

Re: Is cablevision worth it?

In the states, generally you can get a 20ish meg connection, a few hundred cable channels, and a digital phone (free long distance US and Canada) from between $50 to $75 a month depending on what packages you ultimately subscribe to.  Most people I know are paying around $100 to $120 a month because they subscribe to sports packages, multiple premium channels, and they have multiple DVR's and/or receivers.

That being said, even looking at OSN, that is just a ripoff too.  $80 for their most expensive package for about 50 HD channels--people in other countries get that many just for basic service.  Just about every channel is in HD there and you would get more than that for a $25 basic service in the US.  I will say this about CV---at least the HD pictures are crisp and clear.  The same could not be said for Digitek the 'ishtirak' guys, and other providers.  CV with Bein channels for $30 a month if you subscribe for a year isnt too bad a deal---not great, but not too bad.

Now that I think about it, Bein is even a bigger ripoff than everyone else.  Don't get me started.....

I have managed to decipher Cable Vision Channels  , Part of Digitech (embedded in Cable Vision) , Hot Bird Channels - Process is very complicated and long , since it needs some fine adjustments on dish mounting and dish eye mounting , I am using two dishes simultaneously. All HD , watching the Euro Now :)

Congrats--I just pay someone 25k and he does if for me in about 20 minutes--much easier.  :)

How big is the dish you mounted for Hotbird?  I have a 120cm dish now and am going to get something in the 180 range before the rainy season.  HD channels are finicky in bad weather.

Weirdly enough in the Metn and Keserwan area you don't need cablevision to get France 2,3,4,5, it's still ''legally'' on cabled TV only in Beirut they make you pay more
