The usual listings sites (Freesat/TVGuide) are a bit clumsy to use on a mobile phone, and of them TVGuide is the only one that doesn’t get itself in a muddle due to me being in a different timezone… even Cisana’s TV listings app can’t show the correct UK time of the programme). I wanted a simple easy to use way to see what’s on TV, with UK timings (because my receiver gets its time from satellite so it runs to UK time). So… little command line program to provide Freesat TV listings. Calling with no parameter gives the list of available channels. *fsg Syntax: fsg <channel ID> The available channels are: 560 BBC ONE London HD 700 BBC TWO HD 10005 ITV1 HD 1540 Channel 4 HD 1547 Channel 5 HD 818 BBC THREE HD 819 BBC FOUR HD 712 BBC ALBA HD 710 BBC Scotland HD 1011 ITV1 1030 ITV1 +1 1118 ITV2 HD 1101 ITV2 +1 1119 ITV3 HD 1103 ITV3 +1 1120 ITV4 HD 1107 ITV4 +1 1121 ITVBe HD 20002 S4C HD 1525 Channel 4 +1 1510 E4 1511 E4 +1 1515 More4 1516 More4 + 1 28010 E4 Extra 28009 4seven 1541 Channel 5+1 28007 5USA 28008 5USA +1 28005 5STAR 17013 5ACTION 4017 5SELECT 27000 TRUE CRIME XTR 27003 TRUE CRIME 4010 TRUE CRIME +1 27001 LEGEND 27004 LEGEND XTRA 27002 LEGEND XTRA +1 28006 5Star+1 20028 Sky Mix HD 4013 Challenge 20026 Sky Arts 7009 Food Network 7010 Food Network +1 5007 DMAX 5008 DMAX+1 17011 PBS America 24004 W 5005 Dave 5003 Drama 26000 Yesterday 19012 Really 4027 BLAZE 4015 Together TV 9008 HGTV 18008 QUEST HD 18005 Quest +1 18006 Quest Red 18007 Quest Red +1 18004 Quest 4034 Court TV 21259 That's TV 21262 That's TV 2 820 BBC NEWS HD 711 BBC Parliament HD 20014 Sky News 2005 Al Jazeera English 7016 FRANCE 24 (in Englis 3020 Bloomberg TV 15005 NHK WORLD-JAPAN 4036 CNBC HD 4026 Arirang TV 21257 TRT World 8005 GB News 21261 TalkTV 20027 SportyStuffTV 1520 Film4 1521 Film4 +1 21013 Talking Pictures TV 3022 4Music 3021 The Box 12001 KISS 14005 Magic 12002 Kerrang! 822 CBBC HD 821 CBeebies HD 5004 DAYSTAR HD 8003 Revelation 8004 GODTV 20012 Sonlife TV 837 BBC Radio 1 831 BBC Radio 1Xtra 838 BBC Radio 2 839 BBC Radio 3 840 BBC Radio 4 841 BBC Radio 5Live 830 BBC Radio 5 Sports E 844 BBC Radio 6Music 845 BBC Radio 4 Extra 842 BBC Asian Network 849 BBC Radio 4 LW 846 BBC World Service 834 BBC Radio Scotland 835 BBC Radio nan Gaidha 836 BBC Radio Wales 843 BBC Radio Cymru 847 BBC Radio Ulster 848 BBC Radio Foyle 833 BBC Radio London 4001 Capital 4004 Capital Xtra 4002 Classic FM 8001 Gold 25000 Radio X 21008 talkSPORT 20011 Smooth RadioUK 9000 Heart 13000 LBC 97.3 832 BBC Radio Cymru 2 23007 Virgin Radio 19002 RTE Radio 1 19003 RTE 2fm 19004 RTE Lyric fm 19005 RTE RnaG 3003 BFBS Radio 21006 TWR 951 BBC Information 18009 QVC HD 18001 QVC Beauty 18002 QVC Extra 18010 QVC Style HD 8002 Gems TV 11006 Jewellery Maker 21258 TJC HD 21260 IDEAL WORLD 4032 Create and Craft 105 Freesat Info 137 channels are available. * Those numbers are important, they’re the internal channel IDs. *fsg 1520
