Note:

Changes to video and audio formats:

LCN		Service Name	Multiplex	SID		Notes
46		That's TV 3	D3&4 (PSB2)	8700		Video and audio streams	-  format change.

- The video format has changed from MPEG2 Video to MPEG4/H.264/AVC Video

- The audio format has changed from MPEG2 Audio (eng) to ISO/IEC 14496-3 Audio with the LATM transport syntax as defined in ISO/IEC 14496-3/AMD-1 

In simple terms, the video stream has changed from MPEG2 to MPEG4 (H.264) and the audio stream has changed from MPEG audio to AAC3 audio.

Updates were rolled out across regions from June 4 to June 9. 

The service types have not changed, so this change isn't recorded in the analysis.

Note that older Freeview receivers (usually those which cannot receive the DVB-T2/HD channels) will no longer be able to view this service. This should not be an issue for Freely receivers.
