Here's a interesting channel surf through our Astra analogue channel line-up back in April 1994. The receiver was a Finlandia.

  • Funny to see how a home shopping channel is scrambled (QVC) - we don't want orders from customers who don't pay sky subscription ;)

  • Didn't they go FTA in the end? I remember them being encrypted initially but I think they went clear after a few years. I maybe wrong though.

  • MTV when it shock horror actually had music on it. Lol thanks for this great upload.

  • Those were the days!

  • What happened to Minimax?

  • Got replaced by Nickelodeon Spain I think. They had a Nickelodeon strand on Minimax for a while before Canal Satelite went digital in the late 90s. Then I think shortly afterwards Minimax closed. Minimax still broadcasts to Poland and Hungary AFAIK.

  • this was great and I miss these days

  • Me encantan esas promos de MiniMax

  • How many channels did they have and was this on more then one satellite? I thought sats had 24 transponders (or 32) the encryption almost looks like Leech!

  • I probably was watching Sat1 that night. xxx lol

  • yeah! inspector gadget!! :D

  • I miss all the foreign channels

  • MTV!!! YES!!!

  • @bocatablanco Canal Satelite Espana used Syster Nagravision encryption to scramble the channels.

  • What encryption did they use? In spain on analog terrestial tv we used Nagra 1, and in Canal Satelite i think it was Seca 2 (Mediaguard 1)

  • @tripleseis81 Not anymore, Minimax had finished broadcasting circa 2006... then Nickelodeon entered the market. /Poland
