*****

It is interesting that though none of the events are explicitly described as HD, as is the case with BBC HD services, they are using the "video up-sampled from standard definition source material" component type, where appropriate. Until now, only BBC has used it.

Obviously, the data is half-inched from DTT since HE-AAC is not used on satellite.
