Last night we also seemed to be getting sound break-up and pixellation on V+ recordings, specifically the Strictly Final, so you can imagine the ear-ache I got about that.
I had a quick look at my box settings:
SNR: 29.0dB
Pre RS Errors 0,0,9999 per 0.5s
Post RS Errors same as Pre
AGC Signal Level -4 dBmV
Unfortunately, it does seem to be intermittent, so I'm not too confident about being getting it fixed while talking to customer services or with an engineer present.
We have two V+ boxes, and we don't believe we get the problem on the other one, so that perhaps points to the box.
Any suggestions on other settings to look at or things to try?
Thanks

Could be a fault on one of the tuners, but this needs to be interrogated by faults using Red Tools. SNR is ok, but 29 is the minimum acceptable level, so if it's fluctuating then that needs looking at.
Give faults a call and they will check it out for you. HTH
