Latest Verified Updates — Satellite by Satellite

🛰️ Eutelsat 7 West A (7.0°W) — OSN 16-Channel Frequency Move

Common new parameters for the whole OSN multiplex (source date: October 7, 2026): 12467.00 MHz, Horizontal, DVB-S2, Symbol Rate 30000, FEC 2/3.

No.	Channel	SID	Video / Audio PID	Encryption	Status
1	History Channel HD Middle-East	5661	201 / 301	Nagravision 3 + VeriMatrix	Changed (new frequency)
2	OSN Showcase Classics	5662	202 / 302	Nagravision 3 + VeriMatrix	Changed (new frequency)
3	Nickelodeon Arabia	5663	203 / 303	Nagravision 3 + VeriMatrix	Changed (new frequency)
4	OSN TV iqiyi	5664	204 / 304	Nagravision 3 + VeriMatrix	Changed (new frequency)
5	Discovery Channel HD Middle-East & Africa	5665	205 / 305	Nagravision 3 + VeriMatrix	Changed (new frequency)

9	OSN Movies Comedy HD	5669	209 / 409	Nagravision 3 + VeriMatrix	Changed (new frequency)
10	Nick Jr HD Arabia	5670	210 / 310	Nagravision 3 + VeriMatrix	Changed (new frequency)
11	Nick Toons HD Middle-East	5671	211 / 311	Nagravision 3 + VeriMatrix	Changed (new frequency)
12	OSN TV Pop up	5672	212 / 412	Nagravision 3 + VeriMatrix	Changed (new frequency)
13	Al Yawm	5673	213 / 313	VeriMatrix	Changed (new frequency)

33	Eurosport 2 Serbian HD	11334.40	H	27500	3/4	753	DVB-S2	Changed — briefly encrypted, FTA again (Oct 6)

💡 Key takeaway: All three briefly showed Irdeto 2 / VeriMatrix / Viaccess 6.0 / VideoGuard encryption on October 6 and were reported back as free-to-air the same day. If your receiver cached the encrypted state, delete and rescan the transponder.

🛰️ Astra 19.2E — RMC Sport 1 HD Launches (Encrypted)

No.	Channel	Frequency	Pol	SR	FEC	SID	Format	Status

💡 Key takeaway: New sports channel on 12402 V, DVB-S2, SR 29700, FEC 2/3, SID 10019, encrypted in Nagravision 3 for Canal+ France. Uses H.265/HEVC video — older MPEG-4-only receivers will lock the signal but show a black screen. You need a HEVC-capable receiver plus a valid subscription.

✅ Quiet Satellites This Week

No transponder or channel changes were recorded October 5–11 on Paksat (38E), Azerspace-1 (46E), TurkmenÄlem/MonacoSat (52E), Eutelsat 70B (70E), AsiaSat 7 (105.5E), SES-8 (95E) or Intelsat 20 (68.5E). If your dish points at one of these, nothing needs rescanning this week.

🔐 Authorized Access Information

No BISS, PowerVu or Tandberg keys were officially published for authorized public use during October 5–11, 2026, and no verified new occasional-use event feeds (sports/news) with parameters surfaced this week. This article therefore lists technical reception parameters only.

1Biss Key policy: we publish decryption keys only when their publication and use are demonstrably authorized (for example, an official broadcaster announcement). We never invent, guess, or circulate keys intended to bypass pay-TV encryption. Encrypted services must be accessed only with a legitimate subscription or the broadcaster's authorization.

🔧 Satellite & Receiver Guide: How to Retune After a Transponder Move

When a package like OSN moves frequency, you don't need a factory reset — just teach the receiver the new transponder:

1. Open the transponder (TP) list for the satellite (Menu → Installation → TP List → Eutelsat 7W).
2. Add a new TP: Frequency 12467 MHz, Polarization H, Symbol Rate 30000, FEC 2/3, standard DVB-S2.
3. Scan only that TP (select the new TP → Scan / Search). The 16 OSN channels should appear with their SIDs (5661–5676).
4. Delete the dead TP (the old OSN frequency) so future blind scans stay fast and the channel list stays clean.
5. Check signal quality: on DVB-S2 with FEC 2/3 you want a stable quality reading above ~60%. If it fluctuates, check dish alignment, LNB skew and cable joints before blaming the transponder.
6. Missing-channel troubleshooting: if a channel scans but shows "scrambled", that's encryption (normal for OSN) — not a signal problem. If a channel doesn't scan at all, confirm the TP parameters digit by digit; one wrong symbol-rate digit is the most common cause.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Why did all my OSN channels disappear on 7W?

OSN moved its full 16-channel multiplex to a new frequency — 12467 MHz Horizontal, DVB-S2, SR 30000, FEC 2/3 — on October 7, 2026. Add the new transponder and rescan; the channels, SIDs and encryption are unchanged.

Is RMC Sport 1 HD free-to-air?

No. The new RMC Sport 1 HD on Astra 19.2E (12402 V) is encrypted in Nagravision 3 for Canal+ France and needs a valid subscription plus an H.265/HEVC-capable receiver.

What happened to Eurosport on Hotbird 13E?

On October 6 the three Eurosport HD channels on 11334 H briefly showed encryption, then returned to free-to-air the same day. If your box still shows them as scrambled, delete and rescan the transponder.

Are there any new BISS keys this week?

No officially published keys for authorized use surfaced October 5–11, 2026, and no verified new event feeds with parameters were found. We list reception parameters only and never invent keys.

Is there new receiver software this week?

No official firmware releases dated October 5–11, 2026 were found for StarSat, StarTrack, Tiger, Geant, Mediastar or Echlink. The newest official StarSat batch is V3.86/V3.91 dated September 29–30, 2026 on swdw.net. See our October 2026 receiver software guide for the current versions.

Is FlySat really gone?

Yes. FlySat's owner posted a farewell message — updates had already stopped around June 2026 after a 25-year run. For current transponder data, use KingOfSat and LyngSat instead.

Which satellites had no changes this week?

Paksat 38E, Azerspace-1 46E, TurkmenÄlem/MonacoSat 52E, Eutelsat 70B 70E, AsiaSat 7 105.5E, SES-8 95E and Intelsat 20 68.5E showed no changes October 5–11 — no rescan needed on those positions.

• StarSat official software center (swdw.net) — newest batch Sep 29–30, 2026
• LyngSat — consulted; its recent-additions index is undated, so items there were treated as unconfirmed for this week's window and not listed above

Satellite industry news (October 5–11, 2026): SpaceX launched 21 SDA military satellites on Oct 10 (Daily Galaxy); China launched its 27th low-orbit internet-satellite group on Oct 10 (WAM); WISeSat/FOSSA confirmed an October 2026 QSOC launch (GlobeNewswire, Oct 8); Sateliot launched five "Draconis" 5G IoT satellites on Oct 6 (Computer Weekly); Paratus Namibia switched on Eutelsat OneWeb LEO service on Oct 8 (Space in Africa); Eutelsat OneWeb India is infrastructure-ready and awaiting government clearance (The Tribune, Oct 9).

Conflicting/unconfirmed: LyngSat's index shows some additions (e.g., AsiaSat 7 items) without dates — these could not be placed inside the Oct 5–11 window and are excluded from the verified tables. The satelliweb feed-hunter forum's latest October 10 post asks about a feed but publishes no parameters, so no feed records are listed.

⚠️ Disclaimer

Satellite parameters change without notice — always re-verify the latest transponder data before aligning a dish or scanning. Channel availability depends on your location, dish size and the satellite's footprint beam. Encrypted services must be accessed only with appropriate authorization or a valid subscription. 1Biss Key publishes reception parameters for informational purposes and never distributes unauthorized decryption keys.

✅ Conclusion

This week belonged to the OSN multiplex move on Eutelsat 7W — sixteen channels, one new frequency (12467 H, 30000, 2/3), and a two-minute rescan for affected viewers. Add in new FTA arrivals on Badr 8 and 8W, the RMC Sport 1 HD launch on Astra 19.2E, and the end of an era with FlySat's shutdown, and it was one of the busier weeks of the month. Check back tomorrow for the next verified roundup — and see our September 2026 BISS & frequency roundup for the previous month's baseline.
