How do I access the new Channel Nine HD channels?

Channel Nine has announced major changes to their digital TV platform to start broadcasting  a simulcast of their main TV channel in High Definition.

The Nine Network will launch Australia’s first free-to-air lifestyle channel and begin simulcasting its main channel in high definition as well as standard definition.

The new channel, 9Life, will launch on November 26 and feature the best in lifestyle and reality television content sourced from around the globe.

Launching on November 26 will be the high definition broadcast of Channel Nine.

The commencement of the HD broadcast will coincide with the Third cricket Test between Australia and New Zealand in Adelaide, which begins on November 27.

Viewers without a HD television will still be able to watch Channel Nine through a simulcast standard definition (SD) broadcast.

To accommodate the HD upgrade there will be a realignment of Nine Network channel numbers. 9HD will be available through Channel 90, while the SD broadcast will be on Channel 91 (and 9).

9Gem will move to Channel 92 and 9GO! will now be seen on Channel 93 (and 99).

Nine’s at-home shopping channel, Extra, will now be available on Channel 95. Some viewers may need to perform a channel rescan on their television sets.
