Hello

Is there a logical explanation about unpairing of all these channels?
Why they do it?

Because use UK beam footprint for all these channels.

So the problem is not inside uk but outside?

Re: Sky UK stopping HD channels on CS.

There are quite a few different channels on the Sky platform that are not actually part of Sky themselves although they use the NDS encryption due to Sky's monopoly on the Astra2 satellite, But the following popular channels all manage there own subscriber base separate from Sky themselves

BT Sport
Racing UK
MUTV
LFCTV
Chelsea TV

and a fair few others including all of the **** channels, some decide to stick with the extra layer of HD pairing protection and some do not and that is why now some channels are again not a black screen.

In the instance with ITV 2,3,4 and Channel 5HD it ws reported they moved to the UK beam and onto the Freesat part of the spectrum as they will probably go Free to Air eventually how long that takes no one knows
