I’d like to see a similar approach to WIN. 7mate is by far the most popular multi and shares a lot of sport with 7, so it should be up the top. 7two remains at its usual place which the older demo would surely prefer.

welcome to the forum Dylan.
Checking tonight - no change to the 1 Mbps for LCN 73/63.
Also thinking it is a strange choice to be running the slide advising that 7Two will be in HD on the channel using MPEG 4. Wouldn’t it have been better to use the original MPEG2 and also advise that 7Mate can no longer be seen in SD (using MPEG 2). Because viewers with MPEG 2 won’t see the message and won’t know what has happened to 7Mate and the need to upgrade.
LCN 73/63 in regional Queenland now labelled as 7twoHD [Location]. EPG read “Channel launching soon”.
HD Home Run has ollocated a 7two HD logo as well
Freeview hasn’t caught up with the change
Interactive DTV. Promised so much yet delivered so little.
Didn’t ABC use red button for a while? BBC still uses it in UK.
Seven and Nine did a little bit with it as well - Nines from memory required the Teac DVB-500 set top box
Incredible finds
It depends, Nine did some regular multi-view stuff as well. There’s a post back here with some examples - Digital TV Technical Discussion - #1444 by tvcl
The Sports Active stuff was “real” interactive TV, but most networks experimented with multiview as it at least worked with all receivers.
Once HD was more common place it wasn’t viable to be turning off HD to run SD multiview services so they stopped.
7TWO HD has started today on 7QLD. 
So 7mate is purely HD now, and 7two is still on 72 in SD?
Yes, that’s right.
Bit rates for video + audio
| 7 | HD MPEG 2 | 5.121 |
| 72 | 7two SD | 2.217 |
| 73 | 7two HD | 4.527 |
| 74 | 7mate HD | 4.413 |
| 76 | 7Flix | 2.001 |
| 78 | Race | 3.22 |
What region is 7twoHD available in? My tv won’t pick it up and I’m in Brisbane.
Regional QLD.
Ok. Well, that sucks. 
do we know if 7mate hd and 7two hd is also available in regional NSW and vic?
Judging by that, hopefully the end goal is 7Flix in HD too and removing 7two SD. Each multichannel should have just enough bandwidth then.
It will be interesting to see how that is handled as it will require rejigging the multichannel numbers, especially in metro markets where 7Mate HD is on 75
