I dont have a "working red button" but I have about 7 channels called 
STREAM-0...6 which are the BBC interactive streams.  I just have to 
flick through these to find the right program when I want to watch one 
of them.  Not very scientific and maybe the red button can be made to 
work, but I don't use it that much so I've never really looked into it.

The frequencies, etc are on http://lyngsat.com/28east.html - search for 
*12441 V* tp 38 (I think thats them)
