Can anyone tell me who is responsible for the audio volume on the HD channels coming through my V+ box please?

Is it VM or the broadcaster?

I find the volume on HD channels is usually much lower than non-HD channels, but sometimes (rarely) it is higher than the non-HD channels.

I'm not sure how these things work, but I get some vision of audio being set up somewhere by whichever technician is on duty at any particular time.

Another niggle with my V+ box is that when I want to watch recorded programs late at night, say in between midnight to 1am or sometimes 1am until 2am, the box becomes very unresponsive to the remote control.
Very annoying when you want to fast forward through adverts, but when you press to stop the fast forward or to play again, the program whizzes on past the end of the adverts, and then maybe responds a good 10 or more seconds after the button has been pressed on the remote.

Anyone got any ideas as to why this is happening please.

Batteries in the remote are almost new, and it works perfectly at other times of the day.
