MBC Action (my usual channel) keeps running seriously tantalizing adverts for what I think is MBC Persia (lots of deserts and mysterious people running around waving big swords [Wink] )

Anyway, can someone please tell me how I can get MBC Persia - please don't tell me to RTFM because I can't find it - is it on Nilesat? Do I have to 'rescan' the box and if so will I lose my favourites?

It might not be MBC Persia though - if not I would love to know what it is! The arabic writing goes too fast for me to read it.

On my TV it's before MBC1 (channel 200 if that helps) and yes Nilesat.

If you need frequency information or something like that I can check for you. I don't know how these things work!

BTW two women are waving swords right now [Big Grin]

It's called Ayoun Aleya and it's on MBC 1 and starts Ramadan and I think? runs each day.

It's about a bedouin knight who is in love with the chieftains daughter who is very beautiful and all the men are after her.

Its in arabic here

"عيون عليا" و"فنجان الدم"

وتفاجئ شاشةmbc جمهورها في رمضان بمسلسلين بدويين هما: "فنجان الدم" و"عيون عليا"، وتدور أحداث "عيون عليا" الذي يقوم ببطولته الممثل الأردني ياسر المصري والفنانة صبا مبارك، حول طراد (ياسر المصري) الفارس في قومه بينما عليا (صبا مبارك) جميلة الجميلات في القبيلة وابنة شيخها ومطمع الفرسان وشيوخ العربان، الذين تهافتوا على خطبتها وطلب يدها، لكنها كانت تصدهم زاهدة فيهم، وراغبة عن الاقتران بأي منهم

ya gotta rescan your channels, and then all the new stuff will pop up for you to choose from.
There is also another English channel called Fox movies, BTW.
and yeah...its on Nilesat.

just copy down all your faves, and re-enter them.
I do it all the time, just in case they add some new stuff.

and Ramadan has a TON of new stuff coming on.
Just wish that they had english subtitles so that I could follow it better.

I was watching MBC Persia and trying to read the "Arabic" subtitles and was wondering why I couldn't understand what I was reading!

It's Persian [Roll Eyes] Duh

Have fun with Xena! [Big Grin]

Click on that link..it might help you to input the frequency instead of searching the whole of Nilesat.

the scheduling is a bit cock eyed but you are looking at around 10.30pm tonight. Start looking at about 10pm just to be sure you dont miss it because of the clocks changing.
