Countries & Host Channels

The GUIDE Plus+® system works by receiving programme information data from specific channels carrying the data in each country/region. These are called the "host channels" within the GUIDE Plus+ data network. The table below identifies which host channel is used in each country/region where the GUIDE Plus+ system has been launched.

IMPORTANT NOTE: When editing your channel list in the Editor area, please do NOT turn your host channel "OFF". If you do, you will not receive the automatic daily listings updates.
