Just noticed that 7Flix is now MPEG-2 here in Townsville.

Is it MPEG-2 in Ayr, near Townsville too?

Ayr, near Townsville, contains some of Australia’s most outraged free-to-air viewers. It doesn’t take much to set them off.

Changing it to MPEG-2 has increased the channels audience. it was a good move by Seven

Short term gain for long term pain.

I’ll say it before and I’ll say it again: If it wasn’t for 4ME, I’m sure 7Flix would’ve been in MPEG2 from Day 1.

###Seven Year Switch (US)

From Wednesday 20 July at 7:30PM

Four married couples are introduced as they embark on an emotionally difficult journey to help repair their relationships. Viewers learn each of their love stories–how they met, how they fell in love, how their marriages took a turn for the worst and why they are willing to risk everything in order to save it. Two relationship experts will help guide the couples through the switch therapy process, as they adjust to living with an experimental spouse. Will their temporary partners be able to fill the void they’ve been yearning for, or will they discover that the grass isn’t always greener? At the end of the experiment, each of the married couples will reunite and make the decision: to either part ways and divorce, or reaffirm their commitment and renew their vows.

This just seems like a channel that 7 can use to offload junk to. Cancelled series etc.

[Nicholas]

Still wish this was just a movie channel -_-

[TV_Addict]

With a name like Flix it sounds like it should be .

Seven Year Switch (US)

Well that’s the end of 7Flix pretending to be some sort of “movie channel”. Reality TV has wormed its way in.

Interesting that its ratings have settled back to around 1.5-2.0% many nights. Not that much different to when it was MPEG4. I always suspected that the flurry of promotion for 7Flix when it went MPEG2 (and continues now) had more effect than just changing the technology.

7Flix has been a disaster for Seven. The programming it is terrible at this point, the re-runs of the Nanny, Dream of Jeannie and Bewitched and those dodgy American sitcoms from the 1970s… Seriously?
It would have been better off doing a 7Classics channel, then that way the filler content would have been much compliant . As of now, 7flix’s current lineup is a disaster.

I can see them shutting it down if the ratings continue to be dismal, but since they have converted it back to MPEG2 maybe more people will get it now.

as I said when 7flix was launched, Seven could’ve and should’ve used it to dust off a few of their own Australian-produced series from the archives: such as Kingswood Country, Against the Wind, A Country Practice, Bulpitt, World’s Funniest TV Commercials, Class of 75, and they could have done a deal with WIN Corporation for the Crawfords library to be shown, but they didn’t listen!
