Pretty much, a proper nostalgia trip for me! Some of the jumpiness is caused by the VHS recording, however. The text showing the channel name when you change channels would stay at the top of the screen where it's meant to be, but you did get a fully scrambled picture for a second or so every time you changed channel.
As there was only so much space to broadcast, channels timeshared on analogue satellite. TLC would broadcast from 9am-4pm before handing over to Discovery, which would then broadcast from 4pm-2am.
I can tell you exactly what that was. Zee TV (at the very start) was a standalone subscription service with its own card. It couldn't decode any other channels. So you see the Zee TV card being swapped with the Sky card around 0:35.

Lovely! VideoCrypt artefacts 😯
Nostalgic, who remembers the snowy picture when it rained😂
Christmas came early in 1995
Cybernet was awesome!
Weird how they spell VH1 as ‘Video Hits’.
Wasn’t there a VH2 as well ? They needed to differentiate between the two - Video Hits 1 and Video Hits 2 aka VH1 & VH2
"Nikelodeon" 😂
That cybernet promo goes hard!
I agree.
Weird how that Guy switch to the same channel.
Is this what Sky TV looked like in The UK before Sky Digital was founded in 1998?

This is very early sept 1995
Weird how they spell Nickelodeon as 'Nikelodeon.'
Because they couldn't fit it in so they abbreviated it
@Spencer Lent Because you often with these old analogue receivers had to type the name of the channel in yourself, so many people just abbreviated it.
It's like if SpongeBob had shoes. Nike Lodeon.
same with Cartoon Network on sky q
“Cartoon Netwrk
@@mattwebb6056I feel like they could have put Nick instead of "Nike"lodeon

Did you surf through a set up box at the time or you used the tv set by itself?
This channel is blocked means the content is censored

Ever think it's cool / weird that these clips might be the only copy of these shows to still exist?

Most analogue receivers had a character limit on the channel name so it had to be abbreviated.
