already had them out, changed the box, same deal, changed it back seen as THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THE BOX. The best bit about that though is that when you ring up they say they've never heard of this problem?? One look at this forum tells me otherwise.

It's nothing to do with the volume control.
It's everything to do with the level of the volume in the box set by the new software.

scastle, your location says that you are in london? this problem only happens on bromley. unless they've rewired the network then i'm not surprised that this doesn't affect you.

in my case i'm using a surround amp for the sound on the tv. the center speaker sounds like it's on a snap cracke and pop advert on most channels. And before someone wades in with some comments about my setup, it works fine and dandy playing dvd's at twice the volume i listen to the tv so it ain't goosed. also..

1. before MR1 the volume in the stb was set at +6
2. after MR2, the volume in the stb was cranked up to +10 (to make the alarm louder apparently)

My equipment is fine. There's nothing wrong with it.

The only thing that is wrong is the software. I can't alter that.

I think that's as simple as i can make it.
